Car Detailing For Long Island and Queens Peeps

I saw that post about the car detailing service in Maryland and thought I would post something here about my business. I run a car detailing business on the weekends. I have many different services available starting from Hand Washes to Full details inside and out. I also clean and Detail engine Compartments. If your interested in having your car professionally detailed and you dont want to pay the prices that most detail shops charge....Then drop me an email or post here.

my friend needs his engine cleaned, he is a member of this site too, not his civic tho, he needs his old car done.
how much do you charge, and when can you do it?
do you run your detailing business from home?

I get $25 for an engine cleaning....I do it from my house. What kind of car is it? How many miles does it have? Has it been cleaned before?
Thanks

It would have to be a saturday or a sunday. I have no prblem cleaning old cars. I asked the year and the mileage because if the car was really old or it had alot of miles on it I wouldnt clean it....If it had never been done before. But since it has low miles on it ill do it.

There is no need to clay everytime you wax, I usually clay my car once a year. I do it right after the winter has ended. Tom I would suggest doing your car before it gets cold. One good Glazing and a few coats of wax for the winter.....Should be good for now. During the winter I usually bring my car to the detailing shop I used to work in for a wash, and vaccum....and around january I let him wax the car....I dont bring my car to the car wash and you shouldnt either....especially after you get your kit....Bish.
