Okay, they busted the time limit. That's prettymuch a given, as you can see. They said an hour and fifteen, it really took not quite three.
BUT.
I brought them a vehicle that had been dogged after fetch on soggy dead grass. It looked like it drove through three dust storms. There was an odor...I don't smoke in my car, but I'm pretty sure it was smoke. Or possibly the carbon from my exhaust, I have one of those hopped-up-young-man-turbo-no-muffler-stick-shift angry 4-bangers.
The cupholders?...yeah, the morning coffee spills. Doggie snot on the windows, hair on the upholstery, foggy headlights... I wasn't looking for great, I was looking for HELP...cause it was a lost cause.
Or so I thought.
All the blacks got blacker. All the reds got redder. The dash is clean, the hair is gone, the smell is cleared, the steering wheel is almost slippery spotless. The stuff in the car was packaged into tidy bagged bundles and left in the trunk. They even cleaned the center console doggy cover. All those spots between the doors and the body are clean. My headlights are clear! Headliner was uniformly colored again, and you know that stuff under the front seats that you can see but can't ever reach cause the vacuum doesn't go there?
They went there.
They so went there.
Okay...I had to wait. And if YOUR car is already clean enough that you can get the spots that the vacuum wont reach in under 2 hours, then FINE. Feel free to be disgruntled....and then feel free to Clean Up Your Own Mess.
But if you're in the position to need to go to a detailer, go when you have to get some shopping done anyway...target is across the street. There's a movie theater across the way, too. There's a texas roadhouse, denny's, hobby lobby, game stop, SuperWalMartPotteryPaintingPlace and ICE CREAM, ffs! If you get bored? That's your fault. If you run out of time? That's because you didn't plan well. And if you're the kind of person who is going to get angry at an entire group of people who are obviously all working consistently ...You're probably also the kind who is mean to the waiter.
The Car Will Be Clean.
Slippery, squeaky, shiny, nice smelling and super duper clean. Okay?
