Re: Check out this detailer...
Oh geez.....this guy must love all the attention he's getting world wide these days.
Yes, he has impressive attention to detail, yes he does a fantastic job and he obviously has great skill. But if people keep posting this guy's work Joe at Superior Shine is going to raise his rates by 500% so he doesn't look cheap in comparison!! Funny thing is, I'd put Joe's work up against this guy any day of the week.
I must say though, this is the first thread on his work I've seen where so many posters scoffed at the whole thing.Michael Stoops

Re: Check out this detailer...
I feel there would be nothing wrong with Joe's rates going up.Comment

There's one thing I've noticed about the detailers overseas...they LOVE to pressure wash, and they all take shots of the cars completely coated in foam.-Brad

Re: Check out this detailer...
Yeah this detailer has poped up all over the place. But to be honest I have seen guys on this forum that probly do just as good of a job as him.
Ofcourse he sticks out above the rest because he uses one of the most expensive waxes made and uses some pretty complicated and expensive tools.Comment

Re: Check out this detailer...
there's alot of great polisher's on this site and other's that have done some fantastic work and blow your mind depth reflection shot's,the only thing i see is some (fancy descriptions for this and that to bring out the other so every thing comes ful circle) and a couple tools that are basicly BS! but it was a nice job.so maybe if we all throw in some fancy descriptions and a nice gesmo here and there we to could charge big money for the same work we already do!just my 2 cents ha!ha!

Re: Check out this detailer...
If he really gets the money for his work he claims to be getting then that's a good thing for all of us detailers if we can follow suit and raise our prices to earn more for what we do.
On the other hand he's not doing anything more than any of the Pro's that frequent our forum do. And at least here in SoCal it there seems to be a ceiling or threshold as to how much people will pay for "Show Car Detailing", not just production detail work.
The people I know that get top dollar for removing swirls and creating a true show car finish on a special interest car have to first educate their customer as to why they need to pay more for this kind of work.
So maybe it's a mindset thing on the part of the customer?
Maybe some demographic groups in society just don't care what something costs and in fact the higher the price the the perception is that the value of the work or the object is justified?
Might be... but not around these parts of the country... least not that we know of?Comment

Re: Check out this detailer...
It's funny how quick people are to slate him.
Maybe you should PM him (yes he's a member here) and ask him why/how you can make your detailing businesses as successful
I bet if it were a couple of the guys on here that were charging those prices or getting that exposure you wouldnt be moaningComment

its just ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. its been posted sooooooooooo many times. okay we get the picture.
he waxes cars and charges some astronomical redicilous prices. yeah yeah yeah.
Richard waxes car as does Joe and other but you don't seem their work plastered on every detailing website and videos everywhere.

Re: Check out this detailer...
Have you ever noticed he never posts on forums, for this reason, as far as I know he's only ever posted 3 details ( the Vauxhall Astra VXR shown here, a Keonigsegg (sp) and a Veyron) on forums via someone else (a guy called VXR Mark).Originally posted by TrufflePig View Post
Maybe peole should give him a break and enjoy his work instead picking holes in it.
In his 3 details he's never mentioned prices or costs.
Maybe if he only used Megs people on here would love him
