Default In all seriousness (not trying to be mean)

How bad can the inside of your car be already? Is it just that you like it shinny on the inside or was it actually dirty? OK we all know I am a total nOOb when it comes to detailing, I am actually curious. What would you charge to hit my car with a clay bar?

the inside wasnt too bad, mostly worked on just getting the salt and stuff out of my mats (B6 winter floormats have been recalled, so i couldnt get any) i also treated the leather, it didnt really need it very much, but i was feeling **** so i did it anyway. ur right though, generally you only need to treat the leather like every 4-6 months. (even that is pretty often). I usually throw down a coat of interrior dressing as well because, as you correctly guessed, i like it shiny . If you wanted me to detail your car i would be happy to, you only need to clay bar it if there is alot of gunk embedded in the paint, if it is just a little scratched or hazy, it just needs a polishing (gets rid of hairline scratches and helps replace lost oils and the such). and then a nice coat of carnuba wax. i also do the wheels alot (especially with superleggeras, which are a bitch to clean, when you wax em, it helps the dirt and brake dust just wash right off with a hose).

Default I need to wax all my wheels

well maybe just the 8 I use in the summer. I have 2 bad scratches that I need painted and the paint is pretty rough. The interior is not too bad, cloth sport seats, but if I don't do the outside soon it will just get harder.

Default yea..

thats another reason i am so ****, it actually makes things easier in the long run. the longer you wait to clean it, the harder it gets. I didnt take good enough care of my durango, and the brake dust just baked on the wheels, i coldnt get it off. now i have to do a full mag polish on them.
