you should figure out if you want a "full detail"= paint correction or a simple wash and wax most ppl would consider a "detail"... theyre 2 completely different things. just a heads up

very good point. if you want just a wash and wax, it's much cheaper. if you want a real detailing that involves removing all swirls, some scratches, etc... that's going to cost quite a bit more

with that being said.... typical wash and wax jobs can run anywhere from say 75-150 and full correction jobs[3 stage polish] with swirls worked on can be 300-1000<--- sounds very open ended but things to be considered...how bad your paint is, how big is the car, if you want a good/great/best detail.

Another thing the OP needs to remember is that full detailed details may take multiple days. For my personal vehicles, I can easily spend 2-3 days just to make everything perfect
