Dallasaurora Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 I know you'll probably say just do it yourself but I just do not have the time. When I get my Scorpio back this week, I'm sure it will need a good clean up. So I was thinking of having both cars professionlly detailed at the same time. Some places offer a discount for two cars. I just wanted to know should I go for the maximum treatments or are they just rip offs. If I can do bits myself that aren't too time-consuming, then I don't mind doing them. But if these valeting companies have heavy duty equipment and products that will do a first rate job, I don't mind just leaving it all to them. I want my cars restored to their former glory. What treatments should I be asking for to get the job done ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 dallas, here is a company in my local area, they are very very good....I won't let them touch the millenia, but let them do the m interior once, and jeep ex once. I cannot stress how high end they are, they do all the ferrari's and lambo's for players of the local sports teams etc. Plenty of pictures. INCLUDING (if its still on there website) a green 96 millenia being dried next to a ferrari 550 being washed. Just look up the packages an it will give you a list of what each one includes. Usually (atleast in the US) its a package deal. www.waxmycar.com packages and what they include http://www.waxmycar.com/detail-pricing.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 well have to look, they updated it, as the last time the f430 wasn't even out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallasaurora Posted June 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 I have opted for the Executive treatment here: http://www.valetit.com/comparison.htm For both cars at $360 approx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ing-schu@online.no Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Seems like a good deal to me, but then comparing to prizes here isn't widely interesting. Dallas, how did the Xedos exhaustjob turn out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallasaurora Posted June 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Taking it to a garage to see if they can do some welding work on it first before confirming it needs a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MazdaMomma Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 For their most expensive and best package, how come they do not do everything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallasaurora Posted June 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Why, what else is left to be done ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ing-schu@online.no Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 She probably meant there are dots missing in your package which is listed in others, like hoovering and dash cleaning. Which is of course replaced by carpet shampooing and dash treatment. Might be hard to figure out I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troutman Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 I await photographic updates, as I would consider doing this myself. I notice they say nothing about Clay bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MazdaMomma Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 I haven't heard of any detailer doing claybar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 I wonder why... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excluesiveonez Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 around here the detailers do claybar for about 40 bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MazdaMomma Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 They do not do it around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 $40 isn't a bad price considering I spent almost that much on just the claybar itself! I've yet to use it though - it just seems impossible to keep a car fully clean in this damp weather. Dallas must give us updates on his original post now.

Seldomseen Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 I pay about $175 for just an exterior wash and wax using a high grade Brazilian Carnuba wax. I like to detail and clean in the interior myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
