I was skeptical. No detail is worth $10k, come on.
Then I ended up watching the WHOLE THING. Holy shit do they do a through job. They probably glossed over a lot of details, like the UV coating on the headlights, etc, but wow these guys are pros! I would definitely imagine this is for CONCOURSE cars ONLY that are well over he $100k mark. One drive on a public road and that undercarriage is done. These are cars that are in covered car carriers and driven a few yards at the most to be parked on some showroom.

I wash my own car every couple of weeks. It might cost me 5 bucks in supplies. It looks pretty good when I am done. Someday I may try clay barring or getting it done professionally. I'm willing to spend maybe $200 if done professionally. 10k for a detail is retarded!!!! They better be upgrading the turbo, exhaust and tune for that price!!!

^if you're not planning on taking your vintage rolls royce to pebble beach then I agree

Well yes for the tires - but in the $10k detail video they use it all over the car before clay barring. I've done some research, apparently it does 80% of the job of removing many contaminants so that the clay bar process is less abrasive overall. I ordered this: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....1Fqwzjw6oL.jpg |

I second this. Not because I think you're lazy but you could do more damage with that clay bar than good. On the other hand you should definitely learn how to use a clay bar, DA polisher and application of sealants/coatings. Your pride in your car will be at 100%.

And I thought $2000 for detail, paint correction and ceramic coating was too expensive.

Agreed.... There was a period in time where alternate views led to conversations and/or banter which on occasion, led to a change of opinion.. .
