car detailing question

hey guys, right now the paint on my car is alright, and after a car wash it looks decent..but if i get the car detailed or POLISH, BUFF AND WAX (is that the same as detailing?), will i see a MAJOR difference?

does anyone have any pictures of before and after shots? and if the detailing is different from the polish, buff and wax, which is better?

how much will it run me?

A true detail is all of that pluss interior, vacume, glass cleaning, the whole works. You can get details done in various degrees. The more you pay, the more they detail... Get it? Any way, you should see a major difference when your car is waxed and buffed by a pro. They have the tools most of us don't.
