DP Poli Coat doesn't need an alcohol pre wipe??

throwing wax right on top of the sealant before it has cured is almost as bad as getting it wet with very few exceptions (if there are any).

I suspect you already knew this but forgot in the heat of banter... =P

Yeah, I was more or less just being stupid, ha. I wouldn't do that anyways. I just thought it would be funny to tell a customer their sealant needs wax, haha.

I usually let the sealant sit for about 45 minutes to an hour. I tell all my customers to plan to leave their vehicle for the day. That way time isn't an issue.

I always try to make sure that I'm not being rushed. Quality is a HUGE must with me. I don't want anything missed, overlooked, skipped, etc. due to lack of time. If they want their car back in a rush...I just tell them that we are not that kind of detail shop. I've lost a couple customers over that. But were they good customers?....probably not.

Every time you lose a bad customer...you gain a good one. :xyxthumbs:

I'm the same way. I'd much rather have plenty of time to ensure that I'm doing a great job, than be rushed and end up missing some things.

Usually when I have full detail (no paint correction) I'll tell them that I need at least 5 hours. My average time is 3 and half -4 hours for the detail, but I always like giving myself that extra time in case I come across some things I wasn't expecting (which I always seem to).
