2007 Porsche 997 Turbo full detail:

This was a new car that has 13xx miles on it. Even though the car is new it had some minor imperfections and was never washed. The customer wanted to wait till he could find someone to do a full detail for him...so 4 months after he purchased it he found me [:D]

The exterior was definitely dirty, car was never clayed and never polished never been washed!

Interior wasn't all to bad just a wipe down and leather feeding.

Engine not bad at all just cleaned it up.

Phil, Great work as usual. Beautiful P-car too. Not sure how you let that kind of car get so filthy, but he was wise to wait for a detail vs. the auto car wash.

Not only did you do a great...cancel that....phenominal job with the detailing, it was kind of you to share the steps. I can't imagine a 911 turbo owner letting the car get to such a stage of filth.

If you do not mind, how long did this take and how much did you charge?

I charge anywhere between $300/$400 and up for just the exterior only. This customer gets a package deal cause he has a few cars.

Hey Phil, do you do this as a hobby? It must be quite rewarding (financially) to pull off say 4 jobs in the span of a weekend. Thats some good cash. :)
