Acura "Dealer" detailing
Has anyone gotten their car detailed at the Dealer? The acura dealer by me offer complete detailing for $149 +tax. I was wondering if anyone has any reviews?
:thumbsup: |
What does the detail include? A simple detail (wash, prep & seal) performed by a pro can start at about $170. Check and compare services with some of your local detailing shops then decide. A good number of the members here DIY (especially the exterior).
|
I'm not sure what they do. I'm inquiring cause its too cold here in NJ for me to diy. Im plannin to purchase a PC in the spring. I was wondering if anyone got a detail done from the dealer?
|
I can tell you one thing, no two details are alike.
Unless you know of someone personally who has gotten it done there, I would stray away........... |
i can safely say that I would never have anyone else spray water at, let alone detail my car, except maybe for Justin at autogeek.net.
in other words, stick away unless its a professional detailer, generally on his own. |
from what the dealer told me is that they wash n buff. I don't what they use to buff with? I'm goin to take ur advice. Hey excel where is the best place to purchase a porter cable?

Im putting together packages with a PC 7336 sp, which includes :
Pc 3 pads and you choice of polish...... $149.00 (shipping) |
They buff without claying first? Yeah I think I'd pass.
|
its not terrible to buff without claying, just depends on exactly what you are doing with which polish and with which pad. Ex- not claying with XMT3 on a yellow will not yield bad results. however, if you going to do a minor ssr1 or xmt1 with a white pad, they you will want to clay.

Combo packs for the beginners which inclde a good polish/swirl remover/polymer/glaze would be awesome.

Before letting anyone touch my car, I would talk in person the the actual detailer.
If they are skilled at their job they will proudly show off their work in progress and probably keep a photo book of cars done. Many do amazing jobs on the used cars that come in- My Dealer offered a "complete" detail as a comp for some probs I had with them Saying their guy is the best in the valley and I wont recognize my car And I thought I was doing a good job already! Still have to go meet the guy and see if he checks out. People who are really good at their jobs, get jobs with security and benefits-the Dealer Not as likely to be found working at the car wash detail under a canopy |
