Wah... conditions like that confirm takes hours to restore back. Really pondering now whether this has a market here, i wouldn't consider this at all if the price is not right.

Thumbs up for a job well done there! Cheers bro. :D

It was a 2 day detail, took up pretty much half of the 1st day which included wheel well dress and cleaning up the engine bay and small misc stuff like door jams.

The wheels alone took a good 3 - 4 hours.

Market for wheel detailing? I hope so, whats maybe $120 for a set of 19" BBS wheels to be kept protected? :)
