The pics I posted are the latest from my gallery. They charge $150 for the detailing. Includes compounding, polishing, waxing to make the paint glow. I've been going to them for a while now.

Here is the best pics I can find in my gallery of my car fresh from the shop.

You can drop it off in the morning, and pick it up in the afternoon. You will be pleased with the outcome. I saw a dark blue 3rd gen gs getting work done there. I wonder if it belongs to a member here Pm me if you want the contact info.

mayb I can help you..Located in Brooklyn though..

My usual routine is:
1-Wash
2-Clay w/ Clay magic
3-Polish via Makita w/ Meguairs pad
4-Seal w/ Poorboys sealant
5-Interior

Usually 5-6 hours for a full detail, sometimes even longer depending on the condition of paint..Detail usually last for 4-5 months depending on how you take care of your paint (weekly wash, and quick detail)




swirl less supra after several hours..



SC detail



PM me for more details..
