[QUOTE="Merlinii, post: 16176762, member: 159564"] I usually have 2-4 hours minimum on wheels, engine bay, pre-wash foam, decontamination and 2 bucket wash preparing for the polishing part. I can have 20-30 hours on compounding to remove imperfections (swirl marks etc.) and and polishing to enhance the gloss and clarity. It's a lot more work than most folks think when they say "I want to get my car detailed". Lighting is the key. There is a big difference between lighting up a shop (general bright lighting) and lighting designed to find and highlight swirl marks. Even then the noon sun makes a great light. I can seen things with my lights that can make a career out of paint correction. There's a big difference between shop lighting and swirls finder lighting. A good place to start is a Scangrip.
