This is something ive been thinking of as my paintwork is certainly not great

What kind of costs and time would you be looking at for a 2003 E85?

Thanks

Hi Byron, I have watched your business grow with interest and I am impressed with your dedication. Is wrapping now the main part of your business or is detailing (polishing, corrective detailing, new car detailing etc) still your main core?

Bee , both really .... And PPF installs. I get a even spread across the three disciplines. In terms of what I'm known for I'd say it's detailing . However because I can wrap so well I get these jobs too. The business model always always to be able to work across the three as I often found just doing one thing boring . My next move will be to buy and sell vehicles via the business and use my skills to upsell them which would be an amazing way to make some spare cash. I have been relentless with it and it's now starting to pay off.

After I won detailer of the year things definitely changed. I'm now getting jobs where all three things are rolled into one which is nice but stressful .

ok another little update.... i guess im trying to keep you all posted on the business growth side of this as well, ive literally started this thread from before the business was even conceived really . So fail or succeed, its interesting to see how a a business grows. It seems many viewing this thread may not be necessarily interested in my services but just want to see how its doing.... so excuse me if some of my posts seems alittle strange.

ok this month has been abit of a suprise .... i expected january and feb to be dead.... January was ok, but not fully booked.... Feb however is booked to the limit and im booking into early march - mid march currently.

so whats happening....

biggest detail of the year so far for a Bmw 430 gran coupe - front end repaint , Fit bmw oem carbon performance real spoiler and splitter, 2 stage correction, wet sanding to rear end, full interior work, and Gtechniq Crystal serum Ultra, Wheel refurb. This is 10 days of work :? :? :?

ranger rover in for carbon wrap work and de chrome.

66 plate yaris in for a single stage and crystal serum ultra.

Then i have 2-3 days detailing training for a forum member starting his own detailing setup , cant wait to support him with that , ill be working him through everything including scratch repair, paint touchins , correction work, choosing the right tools and compounds, pad choice, decon work and explanations, taking paint depth readings ans understanding the data.

mustang for a full detail and crystal serum ultra.

* currently quoting on commercial wrap for 4 vans.

huge 10 day detail job landed Monday, straight to the body-shop to sort a damaged bonnet and front bumper..... that in the body-shop for 3 days and in the meantime i tucked into a Wrap black out job.... I've done all the work on this Range rover. Today was a De-chrome on the sides, Front grill wrapped ( utter pain in the ass) .


taking wifey to liverpool thursday and friday for valentines then back in on the weekend to burn the midnight microns, then its ALL go! Absolutely shattered at the moment.

also my article for winning detailer of the year was finally sent out to me, it looked incredible!! so pleased!

Damnnnnn this one coming out well.....

Wet sanded and refined to perfection . The fresh paint on the bonnet looked crap in comparison so I've had to start working on that to bring it up to the same level. This customers eyes are going to drop out. 10 days solid work.

More and more brand new cars being deliver edfrom the factory to my unit for prep as the customers spec ZERO DEALER prep. A different process than the heavy restoration work involved in vehicles like above.

It wasn’t until I came on this forum that I heard of brand spankers being detailed, a couple of new E89’s were being done, when you see some of the factory paint and prep you can understand it. :thumbsup:

Checkout the major restoration job complete .... Different level of paint finish ..... Currently heading into 3 months booked in advance , and a future business is taking a big leap as I open a mobile Arm that will purely serve the dealer network for vehicle protection business to business. Then I'm done for abit. Lol. That should be moving my mid to end of this year.
