No detail job is worth 18k, I don't care how good it is
Their companies that charge more than this and don't actually figure the shipping cost into the price. This is not the most expensive detail you can find if you know where to look.
8K for detailing and wrap and transportation and 10k as gtr nismo tax
@@star32godzilla not even close lol
Topaz is the best detailers in the world. no clue their prices. but i bet they are 10000x times better than this guy will ever dream to be and are a fraction the costs
@@SourBogBubblewhat are you basing that on? Have you compared their work? Topaz are a completely different type of business model and service than Status Detail.
For 18k, take the wheels off for god sake!
Owner said don't remove anything....
Owner wins. Lol
@@heart.of.ease.3659 lol
Fr
Bro. Listen to what the man says.
So $18,000 literally get your car in better condition than it was when you got it from the dealership initially! Amazing job well done!
And keeps it looking that way for ten years. Then you can unwrap. Rewrap. And have a new car again 👍
Nearly priceless on a car that will appreciate over time.
how do u figure that when the car is brand new and clean from factory?..no detail job is worth 18k
@@suprarune apparently this one was. And basically every other job I do lol
@@suprarune Factory defects. Did you watch the video?
@suprarune a fool and his money shall be parted everyday
just spent 7k to paint correct, polish , ppf and ultimate detail my brand new m240i. i went back to the dealer to get some service done parked it next to the same car same color as mine and made the oem finish look like trash. its WELL worth doing it right when you got a fresh new paint job.
Definitely! It can really be a big difference when you see it side by side like that. Especially comparing a PPF car to no PPF car after 10-20k miles.
this man wakes up and loves his business. super impressed by this level of detail!
I’d spend the money for the caliber of work just for the man himself - stellar.
Thank you! I definitely love what I do 👍🙂
@@STATUSDETAILGreat job on the detail! As a customer the price is irrelevant once you find someone who genuinely cares about their work.
@@samcheeseman2750 thank you! Love what I do and make sure anyone coming here is given the highest level of care!
Love the new video. A GTR is on my dream car list. I really appreciate all the effort you put into this content. Thank you Evan for the behind the scenes on another crazy detail.
Thank you for watching and commenting! The gtr is a awesome platform. Very reliable. Very fast. Very tuneable. Very affordable!
you re detailling videos are amazing! I really don't get how your channel can be so underrated. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I think the issue is me haha. I need to post more!!!!
Amazing explanations in this video!
Thanks Obsessed Garage. Love seeing you around the channel 🙂🤝
Blown away by the video, editing, and commentary! You hit all the points. Impressive, informative, educational and all the words! You do you b/c its amazing!
Thank you! Love comments like this! The upcoming Ferrari video should be even better than this one!!
insane work man, insane pricing comes with insane precision and you and your team have delivered again. it was a pleasure watching your video again. onto the next one brother!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
458 speciale edit should be next. Might be one of the best videos yet!!!
Outstanding work ! And what an amazing vehicle to work on. Love the content you put out.
Thank you for watching and interacting! Viewers like yourself help the channel grow 🙂👍
thank you for the work you put into these details and videos! youve essentially been my teacher helping me get into the base level of detailing, i aspire to be at the level you work at some day
Thank you for watching and being respectful in the comments unlike many silly people commenting nonsense lol 🙂🤝
Really like your eye for Detail!
Very impressive work. 👌👍
Thank you 👍
Rare indeed,great to see you back with a video. I believe I saw the trailer for transport at a car show, this rare car could not be in better hands 👍
Thanks for the continued support and watching the videos! Unlimited trailers are very impressive that's for sure!
Nice work for the Gem that car is. Thank you for filming and sharing.
Thank you for watching! Many more great videos coming soon!
Amazing video, crazy attention to detail. True inspiration! I love your channel and your art! Keep them coming.
Thank you! I'm going to try and get the Ferrari 458 speciale video out in a timely fashion lol
OMG! That is one of my favs. Can’t wait to see that one now. You shouldn’t have told me that. ;)
@@Anienee after that should be 992 GT3 RS. A sport classic. And bunch of other cool ones 🙂
@@STATUSDETAIL Now your'e really testing my patience ;)
Great work as always from Status. We just finished a 2024 992 C2S and also do extensive paint correction prior to PPF. In our experience, we have found that PPF will cover and hide most paint imperfections and we sometimes make a judgement call as to how much clear coat to remove from the car vs. hiding the problem with PPF. Paint correct 100% for sure, but sometimes the cut is deep and the hide effect is safer for the car.
Agreed! I talk about this in a few videos especially on nasty defects requiring sanding. We aim to remove all the defects and jewel the paint into a ridiculously glossy state and then lock that in. But managing clear coat depth is a serious thing! If your thinking about that your already leagues ahead of most PPF installers 👍
Full body PPF was probably 13,000 by itself people don’t realize how much work goes into PPF by itself. Looks good brethren.
Thank you! Th bfull body PPF was actually less than that. Shipping was definitely expensive. Appreciate you watching and commenting as you certainly understand how difficult this job is 🤝
Great there's a 13k discount and no heavy plastic added - result
@@adrianadrianp5305 I'm confused lol
This is very satisfying, as a car enthusiast. Great video. Glad it popped up on my feed.
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Really enjoyed the video and the commentary. Great job.
Thank you for watching 🙂
Even after watching the whole video, 18k is still too much. But its easy to trick upper class folks. Lol
Thanks for watching the full video 🙂 all our customers are well informed about pricing and alternatives before scheduling. No tricking done here.
It’s easier to trick cheapskates
If an upper class folk is in the upper class it’s because they dont get tricked and know how to spend and use money most of the time
Honestly all I got was you repeating your self about nothing , no disrespect. Now watch a video with Larry of ammo ,and he educates you on pads, sanding ,liquids, everything , dude has his products . I think you have to know a little something to do that .and I think that he is a blessing to your industry because he's probably so busy that he created a need and lots of retailers like you filled that need and I just think that all that MOney talk is better left private you and your client and just be humble. Thank you and great work God bless you
Thanks for the feedback. Larry makes great videos! Check out some of my other videos. Lots of information on this channel 👍
So true , i got the same opinion .. talks too much, overrated work.
@@cristiancarson6009 so no feedback to make it better. Got it.
I was literally searching the comments to make sure I wasn’t the only one thinking this. Dude doesn’t seem humble at all and the demeanor of his business is something I don’t get. I would recommend for him to be more educational, less “we do it best” and just a little less focused on how “perfect and better he is” his work looks nice. Not taking that away from him. However as a viewer, all I heard was “I’m the shit, everyone else is meh because they’re not blessed to have such cars”. I know so many installers that put out the same work and they all think they’re the best in the world. That 18k is wild tho good lord 😂 18k is money you pay for like actual unique custom art. Not a ppf job,
@@Joey_Maldo_15 check out my other videos. Lots of diy educational stuff. If you watched this video you know I said I'll be teaching many advanced PPF things in coming videos for free. Many people charge hundreds of dollars for online classes that will be nearly identical digital content. In previous videos I get comments saying I'm giving away all my secrets lol. Appreciate you watching 🙂
How frickin cool. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!
Thank you for watching 👍
Thanks for all the time and effort you put into these videos. My favorite channel! Did I catch a glimpse of Shelton's car in your shop? @8:50 😂
Yes! Two Ferraris coming soon!
18k, come on. I get it's a lot of work, but 18k. This is why your local guy gets mad about just charging 250 for a Basic, in and out detail. He starts to feel he's undercharging.
Do remember this includes a fair amount of shipping cost👍
Worth it. And the job was primo
@@Caa310 thanks 🙂
@STATUSDETAIL , it costs under $2k for an enclosed carrier shipment of a car from CA to NY.
You know you guys profited hella bank off of this. The fact that YOU brought up the $18k and are acting like a huge portion of that is going to shipping gives sleazy used car salesman vibes. You put $18k for the click bait and people are (appropriately) calling you out for it.
I don't think I've ever seen AMMO NYC tallk about price in a video, but everyone knows he charges 4-figures for a wash. But no one calls him out even though he's making bank on it cuz he doesn't click bait people with it and cower behind, "Oh but there's shipping."
@@Alimoalem click bait would mean the customer didn't pay that amount total to do this job. But he did. It's not click bait. I am not ammo. I title my videos differently.
Beautiful detail, ugly car. 😮
Thanks! But I thought it was pretty awesome looking!!
You guys are AMAZING ! Installing paint protection film is not easy and everything you said in the video about your work is spot on !
Thanks for watching! PPF is definitely hard to do lol
Huge respect to people who do PPF/vinyling. If you've ever done it DIY you know that doing it on a professional level is impressive.
Agreed. Vinyl is very difficult as is PPF. The stress and frustration to learn and get to this level literally gave me gray hair and invented new swear words along the way lol.
yet another banger. blessed to witness such precision and greatness!
What a incredibly nice comment! Thank you 🙂🙂
EXCELLENT video well done!
Thank you 🙂🤝
Great video 👍👍beautiful car so meticulous PPF congratulations. New subscriber. I watch ammo nyc on you tube. But your videos are great😀
They started out watching ammo too! So it's pretty awesome to see people mention his name and then my name or that they view my channel too! Very cool. Thanks for watching
Thank you for you upmost care on this Amazing machine that is everyone's dream car
Thank you for watching and being part of the channel!

Awesome work!
Thank you 🙂🙂
Awesome vid 👌👌
Thank you for watching 🙂
Great job guys 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Thanks!
As a DIY detailer I appreciate your attention to detail and learn a lot from watching professionals such as yourself. I understand all the comments that say the price for this service is a tad ridiculous. I also understand that using a top-tier product is not cheap and neither is all the experience required to install it correctly! The old adage will always stand, cheap price = cheap job. If I wanted a PPF installed on a supercar to be able to protect my investment…I know who to call to have it done properly!
I'll be the first one to tell you I'm expensive lol. I tell everybody including customers you can find a less expensive job. But it won't be the same experience. When you own such a expensive car the extra few thousand dollars is like deciding if you want Fry's with your burger. It's not a big deal one way or another.
Some people do go to the less expensive places too. No problem with me. Gotta do what's best for you!
Thanks for commenting 🙂🙂
That was awesome!!!
Thanks for watching 🙂
Awesome work 💯 really inspired my detailing to put out better work
Love it!!!
The quality of this video is just as good as the job completed on the car
Thank you!! 👍🙂
Dude the title threw me off a bit but after watching this vid I fully stand behind that price you charged. You do awesome work and your commitment to your craft is top notch and inspiring!
I appreciate you being open minded and taking the time to watch the full video to see what was done. Thanks for watching 🙂🤝
Professional work and very informative.
Thank you!
Status Detail is the real deal! Just bought a new car and emailed them about a similar job. Evan was extremely helpful and took the time to educated me on allot of things that helped me out. In the end it helped me find a local shop. I was going to send it out to status but I drive my cars and would have been an inconvenience to send it out every time I need a panel redone due to me driving the car and my OCD about scratches. As for the 18k price ... It is what it is. My local shop is charging me 11k for the work which is about what Evan would have charged minus the shipping. You pay for the time it takes to do the job properly and the skill level of the installer. I was going for a Matt PPF over a gloss paint and for that, install quality trumps all. The folks that complain about the cost are not the clients that would pay for or even appreciate the effort it takes to do things properly. Great vid Evan and great job on the GT-R! Oh and apologies for not returning the last email. I have been swamped with work.
No problem at all 🙂
Thank you for watching! And appreciate the pricing in your comment. When you figure in my price minus shipping I'm typically more but obviously very competitive considering the product I turn out. So for many people the shipping as seen as no big deal to just make sure it's done perfectly. Almost like buying insurance. A status detail is a pretty sure thing lol.
But shippya car is a bit inconvenient for some and well it can be expensive so it won't be for everyone.
Glad you got your car squared away and hope you enjoy many fun miles with it 🙂👍🤝
this is so fire… great talk points and an even greater detail
Thank you 🤝👍
This is excellent work! How would you compare to Esoteric? They are local to me and claim to be a top 1% shop as well and seem to train a lot of great detailers.
I would think they do great work but I've never seen it up close. I'm not sure how that business is structured currently either.
I'm sure they have multiple employees. So that introduces questions like how many of them do PPF. Do the ones with most experience only do the really expensive cars or do you have a vetaren doing a car with a guy who has 6 months experience? At what point do you trust the new guy to work on a car by himself? I'm my opinion that's over a year because PPF is complex. Most companies can't afford to train a guy that long then risk he just leaves to make all the money himself. Tricky business.
I've seen many of the videos on there channel. I think overall they must be doing a great job and are a good source of detailing information. Todd appears to be a top notch detailer. The tricky part is who else is doing all the work. That's why this business currently is essentially completely me. So you know my last car will look like my next car. No inconsistency from employee to employee.
Safe to say esoteric does high end work. As does Larry at ammo and the other big names
Just. DAMN.
That’s my dream car and you took it to another level 😮💨 it looks so good it’s fake ❤️🔥
Lol. Thanks for watching
insane job all around
Thanks!
Top Notch work on car and video.
Thank you 🙂🙂
Amazing Job guys
Thanks!
well done!
Thanks!
Fantastic work - wish I had known you guys when I was still in Chicago. But it appears that's shipping to you may still be an option. Side note - which version of Gimme Gimme Gimme is that in the intro?
Not sure on the music. It's a remix from sick ick and then I usually change things slightly again.
This detail was pretty extreme You can definitely get the price down a little bit but overall still get an amazing detail. If you're interested in shipping just head over to my website and either give me a call or email me. I'm definitely happy to help!
@@STATUSDETAIL thanks! Clearly amazing work and you clearly have passion.
what psi do you use on the pressure washer? Do you have a psi level that you dont worry about getting really close to the vehicle with? like when you get into the small cracks and other places do you change the pressure?
Pressure is always 2000psi. 2 something gpm. Ar blue 630.
I get pretty close but knowing when and keeping it moving is very important. Helpful to blow bugs off. Helpful to prep seals and jams.
When you think about it, it’s just like adding another option to the car from the dealership, or going from base model to AMG. You’re paying a nice chunk of change to keep the car super clean and extra glossy for a really long time. In that sense, kind of worth it. I’m sure it’s just 18k for this car. And if you have enough money to pay for this car, 18k really is just a drop in the bucket 🤷🏻♂️
You nailed it 👍👍🤝🤝
Fantastic video, I learned a lot. At 15:40, you said you use brake buster first and them foam. I was wondering what product you use in the foam cannon. Hyper wash? Brake buster?
Thanks! Typically it's various soaps. Reset. Bathe. G wash. CarPro lift. Gyeon foam. Gtechniq citrus foam. I use various stuff 🙂
@@STATUSDETAIL Much appreciated. I've been trying to figure out a product that will rid my rims of brake dust. So far the iron remover and brake buster have not worked. I will try some of those.
@@Doesin I spray brake buster. Then foam on top. You need brushes to agitate tho.
It is exceedingly rare to find decent work, let alone the level of obsession seen in your work. Bravo. Trust is priceless because mistakes are often irreparable…. Are you still using carpro gel in with the slip solution? Or what are you using for slip with the STEK? Keep up the good work. Inspiring stuff
Thank you. You definitely understand!
Interestingly enough the last week and a half or two weeks I totally stopped using gel. I have found that using no gel is way way way way way way way way...m better lol.
I think as I was learning I felt like gel was this magic thing that probably built in some fake confidence. Now that I'm very proficient it installing film and I dropped the gel I realized that it's actually way easier to install without it. The gel actually makes it stick faster which can be helpful on maybe smaller panels but on the more complicated larger panels it causes actually a lot of problems because it's just soap and water gives you way more working time and will reduce lines in other issues. So for the foreseeable future I'm just on j&j soap and di water.
@@STATUSDETAIL Hahaha, good to know! Thanks for sharing your experience. You're top class. What about for your tack? Are you using standard isopropyl mix? I can't wait for the advanced PPF videos! Did you say you're using steamers now? Best regards
@@frankl9098 Yes I'm definitely using steam now. It's handy for a lot of different things I'll try and show that in some videos or at least talk about it.
I think I use like 91% or 93% ISO. I mix 7ml into 1,000 ml of water I believe. I use gallons of distilled baby water from grocery store.
Glad you're enjoying the videos 🙂🤝🤝
@@STATUSDETAIL Thanks so much. 🙏 Keep setting the bar and sharing the passion!
WOW! Awesome work Guys! I'm impressed. The GTR is My Dream car. I had a friend who had the Nismo version of it. I detailed the exterior for him. It was a BLAST to do! I'm New to your guys' channel just subscribed. I'm a detailer out here in So Cal. It's a GREAT MARKET to be a Detailer. I had a question about the Ceramic coatings you guys use. I use Gtechniq's products as well. Do you guys use their Crystal Serum Light (CSL)?? 5 year coating..and if you do how do you like that product?
Once again Great work! I Definitely admire people that can do PPF......because IT LOOKS VERY challenging to do especially as a beginner.
Thanks! So glad you found status!
PPF is super hard. It will make you go crazy learning and if you get good enough and dint give up you can be proficient. Then you go down the advanced hole and lose your mind again lol.
I use CSL and v5. Both are incredibly good especially exo v5.
@@STATUSDETAIL nice. Thank u for the feedback. I see you respond to just about everyone's comments which is Not easy to do...especially when There's Soo many of them. Thank u. 🙏🏽 Keep up the good work.
@@johnboy5632 my pleasure! I do my best to interact with you all that interact with me 🤝👍🙂

you guys and topaz derailing my fav channels attention to details is insane
Topaz does great work. An honor to be mentioned along side them. Thank you for watching 🙂🙂
This is absolute perfection, wanted to ask you what tyre dressing you use?
Thank you 🙂🤝
Gyeon tire! Available on

Saw one last week at Walt Disney World parking lot, it was red, cool car.
Oh man I bet a red one would have looked very cool especially with the carbon parts!!!!
How perfect do you want the detailing?
YES!
👍👍
It's funny how little some people understand that $18k is probably insignificant to people that buy these types of cars - it's not like they saved up for 40 years to finally buy this car. This is a really good job! Hope your success continues to grow!
Thank you for understanding and the kind words! Many more videos coming!
Watching an expert in their craft perform is inspiring.
Thank you for watching 🙂
man i wish if i can move to USA to learn and work with you i want to become pro in detailing and PPF installation
Lots of great free content on CZcams can help you get a foundation!
Has someone who wants to ceramic coat my own car in the future, I am thinking of learning a little bit more about PPF. Just wondering if it's better and longer lasting especially if you also ceramic coat the film.
I think having them work together is one of the best systems you can have
Great job!!! I have a question. I was recently looking at a Mercedes GLE580 and the paint has TONS of orange peel. It kinda makes the car look cheap for $97K. Without wet sanding it, would there be a way to polish it and then add PPF to "smooth" out the orange peel look?
Sanding is th only fix. In some situations I feel like STEK PPF actually made the orange peel a little nicer looking and some 9/11s that I've done but it's pretty subtle. Unfortunately BMW Mercedes and Audi all have pretty aggressive orange peel.
We just bought an X5M competition as a family car and that also has pretty gnarly orange peel for an over six figure car. I agree it's unfortunate but I'm used to it and was prepared for it so my expectations are low for paint on those cars lol.
@@STATUSDETAIL Thank you! Enjoy the X5M! Maybe a vid on that car? When you have time haha!!😅
@@MuffinMoney lol definitely planning a video!
Ultimate Mom car detail or something like that
I am really curious. How long can the PPF stay on the car (considered it's not constantly exposed to sunlight) until it has to be changed in order to not bake into the paint?
STEK has 10 year warranty! Theoretically it should last much longer than that if your garage captain not driving it very much like I assume this car will be used.
It is however a good idea to remove it around 8 9 10 years old is if you wait too long it can be difficult to remove. But that's more common when a car is like outside every day.
What light is that you are using to show the swirl marks from the rotary?
That was a phone led. Surprisingly very efficient.
Sleek sophistication embodied
🙂👍🤝
Great work, as usual. It always boggles me though that a brand new car has say 50 miles on it. That's a whole lot of miles for a brand new car. Usually here in Argentina brand new cars have under 20kms on the clock, at least from my experience
I've seen everything from around 20 to 50 miles. I would imagine some of the facilities the cars are at are pretty large so driving the car to and from different spots puts miles on? It's a great question maybe someone can give us some insight
People don’t know what ppf is 😂 amazing job bro love it ❤
Most people hardly know what ceramic or paint correction is lol
Thanks for watching 👍
Just a question. How does the film attach to the car? Is there an adhesive involved? Kind greetings from the Netherlands.
it works basically like a sticker with really strong adhesive
my dream car
Definitely something id love to have in my future collection
Best deal in collectible car game. Letsssssss goooooooooo
Should be solid long term buy
Can’t wait to own one 🙏🏼
You will definitely buy your dream car. 👍
Great stuff!
Do you offer training?
Not yet! But one day yes.
Amazing and precise work but sheesh 18k your customers have some deep pockets lol great video
Thanks for watching 🙂
Question: for the front fenders with the carbon fiber vents above the front wheels, was that area PPF film protected eventually? In the video the person cut a hole around that area to lay the fender PPF down. Next question what areas were "NOT" PPF covered on the exterior of the car. I saved this video for future reference, if the stars align I would be requesting similar service.
Great question. So much is not shown.
That fender area was cut out as it needs to be cut out to install. Each individual vent has PPF installed one by one after 👍
All painted or I should say clear coated surfaces on the exterior have PPF. Including rear diffuser and partial underside of rear.
Nice 🔥🔥🔥🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾😎 Doing this job you gotta have patience 💯🥱
Definitely! 🙂
Missed ya!
😀😀 I'm back!
this will be my choice to if had the monay so cool Car x3
👍👍
Having that "OCD" is a double edged sword. I feel it is a very good thing when it comes to detailing a car. If i had a card that needed all of this and i had the mobey.. i most certainly would good to you.
Thanks 🤝🤝🙂id happily take care of it 👍
Hello Evan (correct name?), this is Georgios from Greece! As profesional detailers we know that a brand new car is not in "really brand new contition". Thiw is the answer to them who says why 18.000 for a new car etc. You made really nice job and at he end of the day the GTR looks sooooooo nice!!! Congrats!!!
Evan that's me! Thank to 🙂 yes new isn't new until it leaves us lol
Wow!! 👌🏽👍🏽👍🏽
🙂👍👍
Fantastic work! I am just curious about one thing. You said ppf doesn’t go by a catalytic converter yet you did ppf directly next to the exhaust tips? Why?
A catalytic converter is very different from a exhaust tip. You do need to be mindful of this too though!
McLaren 720s OEM exhaust has like heat shield literally built into bumper due to heat and how the rear exit exhaust is designed.
If you tune a 720 and do exhaust and or downpipes you start melting parts of that surrounding bumper and obviously PPF too. Anything shooting fire basically means your paint and PPF might not make it lol. A cat gets hotter than a exhaust tip though same thing with a downpipe.
If the gtr dies open exhaust and any kind of flame tune that rear painted area is not lasting long.
@@STATUSDETAIL You responded! That’s awesome! My first thought was that gtr probably shoots some big fireballs! That is if it was actually driven. Great work!!!
@@EmptiedPockets I do my best to respond to everyone. Even the not so nice people lol.
amazing work as always
Thanks!
32:15 ppf edge is coming up. Hopefully the customer didn't accept it like that. But I'm sure it was corrected
Not sure what your seeing. Might be a weird light reflection. On our if state cars they often stay with me a few days after completion so I can check for this very issue! This was done a long time ago so I don't remember but it's safe to say I found things and re heated it trimmed any problem spots 👍
From what I saw in the video, worth every penny.
🙂🤝
NEWBIE QUESTION: Is it ideal to remove the "orange-peal" during the paint correction before the PPF-step? If so, why wasn't it done before PPF
The only way you remove orange peel is before PPF. You must sand the entire car. It's very tricky. Very time consuming. Extremely expensive
@@STATUSDETAIL Thanks for the response.
How cool to have Valtteri Bottas as a colleague doing PPF 😎
Lol. You think they look alike? Maybe a little?
@@STATUSDETAIL With the mustache, definitely lol
@@turb0gate lol!
How are you drying the car after your second wash?
After the car is paint corrected I basically blow dry the car to 99% dry. Then I take a brand new clean microfiber towel with with gyeon prep. To do a very light wipe down of any residual water and then begin the PPF.
When a car is fully finished and I'm washing it like for maintenance that process is similar I'm still going to blow dry it until it's basically completely dry but then I'll take something like gtechniq ceramic sealant "C2" spray that once or twice on the panel and then dry it with a drying towel and then go around the car that way adding protection and getting the 1% of water left over
What were the paint measurements on that fine piece of machinery?
Didn't measure. Only really important on heavy sanding work.
Hey Status,
Can I ask you what electric pressure washer you use?
Sure! It's a car blue 630tss I believe
@@STATUSDETAIL Thanks 😊
What is your power wash set up
Ar blue 630tss I think it's called. The obsessed garage one. Cobra jet hose. Mym sprayer. Pressure washer needs 20amps. Pf22 foam cannon 👍👍
Great work. I have this cars twin and PFS did mine, while I am biased I think they are the best in the country and they generally have 20-50M worth of cars in the shop on any given day. Interesting that my car arrived in far better condition and did not require as much to bring it to perfection.
Glad to hear you had a great experience and the car arrived in good condition!
As I mentioned in my video lots of customers pull out all the lights and everything to look at it to find problems but often they don't do that at all Just take a walk around it and say this looks great. Until the car comes to me and I show them everything that was wrong.
Unfortunately most shops don't do The steps we do before the film goes on which means if they didn't know this either then your car had all the same problems but no one brought them to your attention. This is very common unfortunately. Many PPF shops especially ones that only focus on PPF don't even paint correct cars they don't think it's necessary. This is more of a philosophy difference especially if a shop begins as a PPF shop first vs a detailing shop that adopts into PPF.
Damn , 18k is just crazy , for a few hours of work , good job , if you’re articulate with your words , you can definitely hustle customers , some ppl aren’t ethical. You work on a car that is rare , but you do the same work on a mustang, so you price gouge. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This was more than a couple hours lol. I have never done full body PPF and and ceramic correction on a mustang. It's only been on 6 fig cars
