    Spray Sealant technique?

    Biggest Pet-Peeves in Detailing?

    As mentioned before, when someone asks "how much?". You give them a quote and then they complain. However, a positive note is when they leave and go over to the "premium hand wash" location only to come back and have to pay a little more to fix the brand new scratches.... Lol
