He is in the Chicago land area. My buddy asked him how much he would charge for his 350z and the guy told him $325. Which is a little steep in my opinion. Although he does do a great job.

Well if you add up the cost of the all the products this guy uses it adds up well over 200 doll hairs, not including a buffer. Not to mention some people dont know how to. I mean if you arent careful you'll burn the paint or put scratches into the clear coat cause you dont know how to use an abrasive compound. Just sayin

my compounds and pads alone were 150 bucks. not including the buffer which if you buy a mikita is like 225. but then again you can buff all your cars over and over again. Good thing to learn but not everyone has the time or the patience

Agreed for the good products and all the accesories to do a really good job you will spend that kind of money plus our time involved in doing it. I have done detailing for 18 years now and the newer products do make it more user friendly than some of the older stuff we started with. But a good job can take 4 plus hours (interior and exterior)depending how bad the vehicle is start with.
