People Are Pigs!

I detailed two cars this weekend......a Lincoln LS yesterday and a BMW 325i convertible today. Holy crap man, both cars were probably the two most filthy cars I've ever seen. I can't imagine letting my car get as disgusting as the two I detailed over the weekend. I swear that neither car has had an interior vacuum done in a couple of years.

I know that I am at the opposite side of the spectrum being **** clean, but damn some people are just downright dirty.

Here's a couple of pictures of the interior of the 325i, and even still the pictures don't show how brutal this car was. I definitely earned my money this weekend.

LOL, Shane, it's hard to imagine how people can let their pride and joy get that dirty and unkempt....but they do......

One thing in your favour, tho, is that it's not hard to make something that disgusting look really good.
Someone that slobbish won't have a clue about the finer points of 'detailing'....

Hang in there. I'm guessing that most owners are careful of their rides, and very appreciative of your fine craftmanship....

Colin.

remember, for a lot of people, a car is just that, a car...

Saddest thing about being in auto detailing is that the people that need it the most are the ones that always feel you're charging too much.

Let's see the after pics!

That's nothing man...I used to be a mechanic. This one car that came in for service had his fcking thong on the headrest of his car. He food packages and junk all over the place. My friend refused to work on his car because it was so filthy...We actually refuse to work on that customer's car until he made it clean enough for us to really work on his car...Trust me it was really bad...

Yeah, I can only imagine the interiors you've seen Kevin.

Both the Lincoln LS and the 325i turned out well Kevin. I am really beginning to believe that paint on domestic vehicles is at least twice as hard as imports. The paint on the LS was way harder than the BMW.

I'll post up some pictures tomorrow, I'm just a little to lazy to do it now. I've detailed 3 vehicles this week, and while that probably doesn't sound much.....I've golfed two rounds, helped Anissa with Ava, and am knee deep in bathroom renovations. Needless to say, I am a little exhausted.

No problem Jeremy.....just give me a call when you want it done. I am quite anxious to do a fellow G35 owner's car.

Uhhh, yeah I know something about that too. Trust me Shane, that doesn't even hit a 5 on a scale up to 10.

yeah that is a little too much

Mine get vacuumed every 3k miles after the oil change by the dealer. I don't let them wash it though.

That is nasty!

I took the seat covers off of my 1998 truck this week and the whole interior still looks like new.
