That's about 5 hours. Sounds about right for the tasks you describe. If I clay bar and polish, add another 2-3 hours.

Yeah, I'm a perfectionist and could do it quicker if I wasn't, but I take pride in keeping my Max impeccable.

Longest session for me was 8 hrs and that included washing, claying (including wheels), polishing, cleaning interior, waxing, apply dressing.

This time of year? How about "very little".....

I've been too scared to keep track of my time during detailing season. I've found claying to be my Achilles Heel - I think I'm being too thorough and it's not uncommon for me to finish a job the next day!
