I agree with the folks above, if you have the time to DIY, then its a lot less expensive and you know its done right.

I usually don't have the time to DIY, so what I do is get a couple folks from work who also want their car detailed. Then, I have a local mobile detailer come by my office to perform their magic. Because of multiple vehicles, most detailers give you a good price break.

However, finding a GOOD detailer is the biggest battle. I usually call around to find the best prices for a mobile detailer that has his own water tank. I also ask them what products they use. This is also very important b/c usually a lower price means cheaper products. Some of the products above (Zaino, Meguiars, Lyxol, etc) are great, so I know which ones are better than others. I usually get at least 2-3 other folks at my office and end up sending about $125 each for a full interior/exterior detail. This does not include clay and/or sealant, which is usually another $20+.
