Nothing much to brag about here. Just a full detail, no polishing or anything. I would've liked to kept it for longer and buffed it out but guy only wanted wash and wax. I ended up claying alot of the truck because I couldn't see waxing over the small tar deposits and such. Paint could use a one step polish then wax but anyways.........

My father and I did it in 4hours and 45 minutes. I don't see how you guys are getting stuff done so quick doing it solo. We did all this for $125 and he gave us a $5 tip.
 
I also need to work on my photography skills. I have to resize the pics smaller cuz the camera takes huge pics. I think I found the setting on the camera so that might help to get closer fuller shots, I HOPE.

It's a Kodak camera. I don't know if it's me or the camera needing settings changed? You think it's the camera or I need to change settings on it?
 
God, the new silverado's have an ungodly amount of chrome on the front end... I'd have to get all that colormatched if I owned one. lol! Looks like you did a nice job on it, though :)
 
Nice job on the detail. As far as the camera, it looks like the pics have been blown up and are pixelated. You either need a higher resolution camera or make sure they don't get blown up at all.

I am really trying to get my pricing situated. I charged him $125 and it took us 4.75 hours to do. I did extras like claying alot of the truck. I just couldn't bring myself to wax over all the black specs of tar. The rear wheelwells took us a while to get tar off also. No liners just paint up in the rear. So if not for the extras we wouldve knocked it out quicker but even with those hours I turned a good profit. I am in process of starting up shop.
