Guy told me it'll stay like that for a year... All my fine scratches and swirls are gone for good... I had the entire car cleared of chemicals and then cut, polished, polished again, and then a diamond polish and sealed or something... You pay for what you get...

you've got a nice polish there too lam boy.. Thanks for the compliments on the car

Yah, I once had the shine factory do my car and it cost me a little less than that if I remember, but the quality was actually really good. They used some sort of de-oxidizer or some shit and it turned out really shiny! I had this done in Calgary and I was driving back and forth to Lethbridge and yah, it lasted for just over a year and a few of the my buddies and the guys I worked with thought I had the car repainted! Not bad for 3 bills even if it did only last a little over a year...that's like a dollar a day for car washes! haha

Yo dude listen to me carefully... I've gone the cheap way, and it ruined my car, honestly it did... If your not willing to throw down at least 275+ your not gonna get a good job... After both my polishes, I can see the differance in other cars I see on the roads, good job or bad.... Most cars I see, even BRAND new BMWs, and high end black cars, I can see they've had bad polishes done... Its worth the money man... Heres one of my famous selling quotes I use almost every day I goto work... Cheap is not good, good is not cheap... Good luck...

let's expand that out some more
you can have it cheap, fast, or reliable - pick any two. it can be cheap and fast, but it won't be reliable. or you can have it fast and reliable but it won't be cheap. i guess you could have it cheap and reliable but it won't be fast.

ahhh yeahhh. but then I guess it doesn't apply to polishing cars anymore :D

Alright, I am sold -- what is included for $350?

EnRich
01-26-2005, 12:16 PM
It would probably be cheaper for you AWD... I had to get some chemical removal from a bad polish job... I have no idea whats included, who cares, the guy gurentees a perfect job every time... They even lift your car so your body gets perfect contact with their brushes....

Hey Rich, very clean Accord man, I'm also interested in getting mine done. Platinum Detail right? do they have a website? where are they located?

Thanks
