Hi guys, I'm new on the detailing business and a neighbor want me to detail his 96' Honda Accord. The thing is that he doesn't want the "full" int. ext. detail, just some requested options. That for I'm looking for and estimate price of what I should charge for it.



1996 Honda Accord Sedan

He wants:

Wash

Clay

Remove 18'' wheels

clean and polish chrome lip

paint brake calipers

polish

glaze

wax

clean doorjambs and all glass



I'll be using clay magic, pc, IP, 3M foam pad glaze, #845

(any given help will be much thanked)
 
becare full removing wheels.

1 you have to jack it up, it hurts when they fall.

2) the chance to damage to wheels goes up exponetially

3) unless you have a proper torque wrench you will not know if you have them over tightened or under.

4) you are liable for future issues with the wheels and tires, at least untill some one else takes them off.

5) it is not as simple as nascar makes it look.

6) Personally with out a shop I'm not big on removing the rims.

$200-225.00 / no interior.
 
I'd go for 200-225...I'm guessing you've painted calipers before? I like using the Hi-Temp Engine Paint made by Dupliecolor. Good luck
