    loads of things

    Re: A cheap detail

    if you work it out at say £7k over 250 hours thats £28 per hour........cheaper that the drive in polish cleaners (£10 for 20 mins)
    Then take his wax and products off....he could be doing it for near £20 an hour if that, not a huge amount in the end.

    I think it was the £5k Police microscope that got me .... if you can't see the scratches then what the hell does it matter ?
    You go round your mates to show him your new car and he goes
    " wow nice car but let me get my microscope "
