At the moment I charge $25/hr. I spent roughly 18-20 hours on this car including the exterior, interior, and engine.

That was more than a "detail". This kind of work takes time and alot of in depth detail. Restoring clearcoat without sanding through is an art and 5 bills is more than worth it.

I aggree.... Go out and get an estimate for repainting that car. Or look at an appraisal before and after. It was well worth it and the car will be much easier to sell now

I know its hard to say without seeing the car, but how many hours do you think it would take you to do some light swirl/wheel mark correction on my car? Car is immaculate other than some direct sunlight swirling. My paint is finally done curing, and I'm interested in getting the car professionally detailed.
