Obviously at £350 it won't be a sideline job.
So firstly the person is going to be paying all his taxes, will have to have insurance to be covered for damage too.
He will have to purchase a lot of gear. Van, pressure washer, paint thickness gauges, lamps, machine polisher plus all of the cleaning stuff.
Obviously what cleaning products you use can see massive variance on price.
I do agree though that many of the detailer do charge too much.
Here is my local detailers price list and you are from £600+VAT for an enhancement. Proper correction is from £900+VAT and takes days.
