The price definitely isn't for the faint of heart, but I can tell the utmost care was put into the job. If I had the time and knowhow to do it myself I would, but I think the difference is worth it. It really feels like a whole new car. Now I just need to take care of it so I don't need another one.

Props for the great job. The finishing picture looks great.

$600 is a steep price, does he do any follow up work for that or just one time only charge?

I am with most other people, I wouldn't mind spending couple hundred bucks and do the work for myself. Most stuff can be reused, only thing you would really need to buy would be pads. On top of that, its a wonderful feeling after you polish and clean your car; feels like a great accomplishment. XD

I would advise people to stay away from car washes at all costs. Unless there are some that actually pay attention to the condition of the car, rather than just making it shiny.
