ok so i recently got done detaling with a friend, my neighbors car since he's done alot for me so i though it would be a nice suprise. and he suggested that i should try advertising by flyers detaling vehicles and i really have no idea on what price i should charge, any idea?

bronze, wash/interior/engine bay
silver, above + wax
gold, above + clay/scratch removing + cleaner wax
platnium, above + mic. stuff like metal polishing, trim detailer, etc.

thats about everything i offer (wax/polish/scratch removing) is all done by machine.

iv been detaling my own vehicles for quite a while now and i think + others think i do a dang good job.

so what do you think i should charge for each package, i probaly missed something but thats about the basics, thanks.

 

How long is "quite a while", and you've had vehicle(s)? Impressive at 13.

 

sorry about 2yrs now and well the camaro is mine, the durango isnt but i consider it mine . iv also detailed other misc. stuff.

 

evermind about everything, iv decided to just do quick washing. so im thinking to charge something like this smal/med car 10, large 12, small/med suv 16, large suv 20, small/med truck 18, large truck 22 and up, van 20. should i make small/med truck 20? and should i raise small/med up to 12 and large to 14? and should i offer a quick vacumming for 5 bucks?

 

I've detailed vehicles for 20 odd years for friends, family, co-workers, and neighbors. I almost don't know how people have set prices for a certain detail. I've done vehicles start to finish in 4 hours- inside and out- everything but clay bar. But those vehicles were in good shape- and had been washed/waxed often. Then- I've done cars that I couldn't get looking right in 3 days. I've had road tar caked behind the front wheels so bad I could literally take a putty knife to it without getting close to the paint.

I think the quick washing is a good idea- Detailing- I almost have to look at a vehicle anymore before I can decide what to charge.

 

thank you, iv defintly decided just to do washing, but i do still have a definete guy im fixing up his faded iroc-z, the paint cant get much more worse looken then it already is lol, and my paint was in the same condition and looks pretty new (Expecially after i do my scratch removing process in doing right now).

 

Set up an LLC. That way if you screw up someones Bugatti, they won't come after your house.

 

i think i'll just stick to the washing pretty much, i just got paid for washing a ladies newer f-250 with the help of another person and got 35 bucks
