Truckster,
A few months ago I used Conrad from VIP Car Care in Whittlesea (0416 175532)to do my old cruiser in prep for sale. It cost $297.00 but that included wash, cut and polish, shampoo seats and carpets, clean and armoral everything, engine wash etc etc. He did a great job and came to me in Warrandyte.
cheers

Yeah, fair enough.
I probably would not pay the money just to have a clean car, but it makes them very
well presented for sale.

PROTECH in Dorset Rd Baywater. Bloke who owns the
shop, (Greg), is very good & reasonably priced. When I was in the HDT/HSVE club most of the guys took their cars to him before entering 'show & shine' contests etc. Also has a hoist to clean the underbody.
Cheers

Do it yourself Truckster. Detailers have no magic wand, you can do a better job yourself without using their harsh chemicals.

For Gods sake dont use a company for detailing your car by the name of CarCare. Biggest rip off franchise in Australia and they are nation wide. I got ripped off to the tune of $13000 plus legal costs. Their work is hopeless, have no training and are let loose on the unsuspecting public. Use an Independent detailer. Bound to do a better job as his reputation is on the line - even if he charges a little more.
