Default got a $380 car detail

well since my friend owns the shop I got it for under $100
He did the Clay bar,compound,polish,wax,carpet,mats,leather,engine and fixed some scratches for that price
here are some pics before the car gets dirty.
by the way the paint feels like silk now,before it felt very rough.

yeah that looks good!!! love the price too. that was def worth it. Claying your car is what makes it smooth, by removing the contaminants that are on your paint

Thanks a lot guys!
unfortunately i live in brooklyn and have no garage/driveway so I cant hook it up as much as i want to.

anyways the process took about 2 hours. and there were 4 people working on the car.
wow i cant believe how the clay bar made the paint so pleasant to touch.

they used like 10 different sprays,and different machines. its a whole art lol.
