•Wash exterior by hand
•Hand Dry
•Clay Bar
•Complete exterior wax
•Clean glass
•Tire shine
•Leather Treatment: Seats, trim panels and dash
•Vacuum carpet and mats
•Machine scrub
•2nd Vacuum
•Shampoo carpet and mats

not bad for $80 bucks. most "touchless" car washes charge $100 for half of that

It's looks reasonable. Though I am kind of bummed that it doesn't have a polish step.

Be careful when buying stuff from Living Social. A lot of people (including myself) on Slickdeals had a bunch of fraudulent charges after ordering from Living Social.

Just go to DetailAddict, and don't worry about cost. The first time I came I requested about 4 hrs of work be done, i was late and it was dark after 2.5

So I'm thinking hey I'l pay a little more than half what I planned.

NOPE!

DetailAddict apologized for being limited by the light, and assured me after his 2.5 hrs work he would prefer I pay him only once he complete the entire job, and he couldn't charge me until then. He wouldn't let me pay him. I came back a month later and had the rest done. On top of this he is far more skilled than any detailer i've been too or met.
