Very nice work...my favorite details are always trashed, black cars

Thanks Shawn! I agree. Working on black cars and making them look perfect gives so much gratification.

Hey Marc, you did an awesome job on that Vette. As for your 18hrs. Believe me you're doing good on time especially when you're aiming for perfection.
This Vette I worked on http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26444
took me about 30hrs total and it wasn't as beat up as the one you worked on. So keep up the great work.

Thank you very much Jesse! Thanks for sharing the link and the kind words. When you're already doing more than 15 hours of polishing, it just gets tiring and your body's so beat up. I can't imagine working for 30 hours. That black vette looked awesome after though!

Re: Detailed: 1996 Chevy Corvette Convertible - Black

looks amazing,

my highest price is 250.00, which to a lot of you everyday pro detailers is way low, but since im only doing it on the side etc 250 seems about right for me and you need to consider the market in which you live, if theres not a lot of wealth in your area 500 dollar details just wont be done.

Even at 250-300, people get shocked.

Outstanding, Marc!! Nothing better than a Black car when it's done correctly. Don't be afraid to charge what you're worth, or scale the job accordingly.

Congrats!

Thanks a lot Mike!!! How's it going with you and Jeff? Hope all is well.

The person who got me this job was also convincing the owner's friend to have his Mercedes detailed. When he heard the price he was like hell no LOL! There are a lot of people that don't know what proper detailing entails and don't want to pay that kind of money unfortunately...

That makes for a happy customer.

Nice save on the vette!

Thanks a lot RDVT4ME!

What a great transformation. The Vette looks great. Very good work.

I bet the owner was thrilled. Way to go.

Thanks J.A. Michaels! The transformation exceed the customer's expectations.

Very nice work Marco.

No, your just fine when it comes to the time. That would have taken me a good 22 -25hrs, and thats not including the interior and engine.

Thanks a lot Nick!!! I didn't know that it normally takes that long to do a 2 step detail. I thought I work so slow and I've always tried to go faster.

I second Nick on this one. When it comes to quality work, time and money are not an issue.
Great work on the Vette. I was pleased to see how well the scuff marks under the front turn signal turned out.

Thanks a lot Chris!! I was surprised myself. I didn't expect those scuff marks to go away but I just went and tried. It took 2 passes to get them out but it made a big difference. The owner was happy.

Top-notch work Marc! Nice job 18 hours is about our average for a 2 step exterior - you just gotta charge appropriately Great job

Thanks a lot Jeff!!!!! The problem with charging accordingly is people don't want to pay that kind of money. I try to lessen the number of hours work but I can't help trying to perfect the car I'm working on.

Awesome work. That paint was a nightmare before and now it looks smooth. Amazing results.

Thanks a lot CAShine!
