Yup I'm in Northport, Pricing will be based on Condition, Size and add on's.

Pricing for you guy's starts at 150, just keep in mind this isn't some quick wash I will be doing everything under the sun to your car. My average rate of pay is around 50 - 60 an hour. Average detail take's about 5-7 hour's depending on corrections.

Side note: Just picked up a brand new orbital Da flex 3401 R and a rotary Hitachi PV18SA - The results are going to be insane. I also switched my line up to Menzerna instead of CG compounds. Menzerna is the best in business as any pro will tell you.

Sounds good, I honestly would go for cars with an older age, more of a challenge

I promise you guys I will bring results like you have never seen, of course I can't be held accountable if you just want to leave it in your garage and stare at it instead of driving it, haha. All I can say from a detailers stand point is this really will not only make your car look better but it will, increase the value and protect the finish ALOT. Alot people have been asking about sealants, they are very strong and will hold especially against the shitty conditions of new york state winters + salt etc. Sealants usually last about 3 - 4 months depending on how many coats and which is used.

Also for those thinking about wax, I use the finest wax in the world (Look up the swissvax line up (I use Onyx, Saphir and Glacier for now). It will last you up to 6 months (Not just a coat with a shine but the actual beading effect of rain will in fact last 4 - 8 months).

If you guys have any ?'s let me know.

For those who ask about regular cars my base package with base wax is 380, this does include sealant and light scratch, swirl and holograming removal. If you know anyone with classics, luxury or exotic's especially please send my way. Right now I'm trying to get my business out there so my first few cars I will go over and beyond whats needed for better then normal price. I honestly love doing this especially on cars that I love, classic Imports some luxury and fine exotics. Rest assured that I probably want your rx7 to look better then you want it too, I'm to much of a perfectionist.

My location is 11768, Northport, Long Island. If your on the northshore I'm basically smack in the middle between the city and the point.

Nice site man!

Hey i know its not listed in your site but i figured i ask but you guys dont do paintless dent removal right? Or maybe know someone who does who can join the action as you detail a car?

I have like 3-4 penny size dents in my driver door that makes the car look ugly from certain angles lol

And those are some HIGH quality products and tools you're using. Much respect.

I am out in east northport every week or 2. Would be convenient... Is there flexibility in the package options? Car is 3 years old, and I've only washed it. It needs a nice cleanign and waxing. I don't care to do the engine bay. However, I have some minor surface scratches here and there. Can this be negotiated? I'm willing to spend 200-250 for the right job.

How'd you know

I have the same user name on many boards. My theory is simple... track, research and ask the best on all the forums. Doing this helps get the best info, skills and techniques for the job, as well as the best and most effective products. I can't even begin to tell you how much those boards have improved my efficiency, techniques and overall results as a detailer.

I'm on Autopia, Detailing Bliss and Meguiars Online.

Just by that alone, I know you're a reliable detailer.

I'd love to drop by some time. Perhaps when I'm too lazy to whip out the Makita or PC . Would you be interested in doing PDR in the future?

Your welcome to anytime, I'm in northport. I only work on the weekends (Don't tell the other people at DB or Autopia ). It's just starting to pick up, finally the summers here

As far as a PDR just let me know when your available.
