Holder Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 I'm not proud of it but I did this detail for customer and turned out he was having it done for a dealership. In the end the customer was getting a cut if the profit and I was getting the shaft. Never again for a dealership and I will never detail another car for this customer. Anyway here she is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holder Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 Did he pay you what it was worth? Waiting on payment now. This is a new situation for me. I just wish he would have honest and upfront. I told him what I wanted to complete the detail to get it where they wanted the paint to be. In the end I'm barely gettin half that. I still have the keys and half tempted to take them to the dealer and request payment. But I think I'll cut my losses and lesson learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still use it as a lesson learned but I need my money. Not half. ALL of MY money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holder Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 In the end I stuck it out and got paid what I deserved. He was a little bitter when he handed over the payment but I explained to him what was involved. I think we both ended up on top. I received the payment I deserved and he received an immaculate Range Rover. But we will not be doing business in the future.

mc2hill Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 ...My dad's van. My parents came down this morning for a visit. I decided to post the "Afters" first as it is a little more dramatic. Applied Quick Sealant to make it easier for him to clean it again when he gets home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 It's only May, but I'm about sick and tired of detailing these cars already. I'll be glad when summer gets here. Dryer, and no more pollen!! Getting the Vette cleaned up for her first show this Sunday (if it doesn't rain again!). Got the Caddy all nice and shiney for the wife. But it seems like it's almost every other day I'm wiping them down or washing them. I'M TIRED!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
