How auto detailers usually price
Detailers price by package and vehicle size, with paint correction and coatings quoted after a look at the paint.
Start from your own hourly cost with the labor rate calculator, then check each price against the ranges above.
Where the ranges come from
None of these services has a published range we could source well enough to show here, so every line says "Set your own". Price them from your own hours, parts and drive time with the labor rate calculator.
What it takes to deliver this menu
The starter kit behind these services: dual-action polisher; foam cannon; pressure washer, electric or gas; wet and dry vacuum with crevice tools; microfiber towels in quantity; wash buckets with grit guards and mitts; brushes for wheels, tires and interiors; spray bottles and dilution labels. The full tools list adds the pro kit and van stock, with maker prices where we could check them.
