    CQuartz UK vs Opti-Coat 2.0 for Black Cars

    And in this corner... ('01 Ford, F150)

    I wouldnt feel defeated at all considering what you were up against. In fact I would say you came out on top. The remaining defects were not from your lack of skill its more that he needed a painter not a detailer and you more than delivered as a detailer IMO. Great job!

    How to get old all weather floormats looking new again?

    I would APC, agitate with stiff brush, let dwell a min or two then pressure wash. Im assuming the carpet extractor was meant for under the mats, I was confused as well why you need it for rubber mats.

    Why do so many detailers...

    I think perceived quality has a little to do with it. Most people just looking for a car wash may not give the higher priced guy a second glance just based on cost. However, people who are actually looking for quality would be inclined to probably go talk to you and ask questions in which case...
