Wondering if any pro detailers can help me out here. My boss wants to give me a washing contract to take care of his three cars, 08 MB S65, 06 MB E55, and 08 Cadillac Escalade. All black of course. The schedule would be wash the S65 once a week and alternating every other week for the other two cars so total of two cars washed per week.



First question is about pricing. Does $400 per month sound right for 8 washes considering the size of the vehicles? He would also want a one step polish/wax for each vehicle per month. I would either AW or OCW on the other weeks.



Second, for the one step polish wax, would OPS or VM make a better choice considering the hardness of MB and GM paint or would you go for SIP or 106FF followed by AW or OCW? Obviously my main goal is to get as much bang in the least time possible. These are the products that I have on hand but I would be willing to get something else if it would do a better job. I would be doing this by PC.



Thanks for all of your help. I'm not looking to do this professionally but just to make some extra money on Sat mornings.
 
Even if you were to only wash them that would only be $50 a wash and you have to polish once a month, i think its to cheap. Is that exterior only I hope?
 
I would price it after each received a full polish and seal. Then maintain with AW or OCW. Then $400 sounds OK.
 
Thanks for the input guys. I think that I'll shoot for $500 a month and see what happens. It's amazing how cheap he is considering we're talking about taking care of $400K worth of cars. :confused:
