ok, you're ignored

Most good detailers are going to be a bit pricey. Equiptment and supplies are expensive. And the only thing they have to sell, other than thier skills, is thier time. It's one car, one hour at a time.

I don't know what he charges. Last time I spoke with him about it, it depended on the amount of detail you wanted, what you wanted detailed and the car.

See what he says. Tell him I sent you. It may not help, but it may not hurt?

Wow what a coincidence... your first post here is an ad for your company. I think the members here are looking for a more upscale professional detailer, not some kind of gimmick.

You need soap to properly wash a car without inducing marring. Steam doesn't emulsify the dirt.

Go spam somewhere else!

if this was true, how come their steam cleaning method is patent-pending (as is stated in the website)? and the founder seems to know what he's doing (see his bio in the about us section - think it's impressive).

i think using steam to clean not only your car but also your house is a great way to save water. and even if CrisR is promoting own company, so what? the post answers to the question and gives useful info, isn't it?

smile and good luck!

Patent Pending only shows the patent was applied for. Anyone can apply for a patent for anything,

Water/steam by itself won't encapsulate the dirt, it will be wiped along the surface and will marr the finish.

You just recently joined and youir first post was in here defending a company you're affiliated with.


If you think I don't know what I'm talking about, do a search under my user name and and take a look at the level of work I put out on a consistent basis.
