My wife got my car detailed on Sun, their premium treatment. We had the daughters vehicle done by the same group a while back. It looked really nice when it came back. The premium treatment includes carnuba wax instead of the cheaper waxes. My car does look very nice now. I'm hoping that it stays looking good for a while.

I have 2 pet peeves that this place hit on. They apparently, didn't clean the windows last, so I have a couple of spots with some sort of spray that's not coming off easily. I'm guessing it's wax or something. There should never be overspray left on the windows. The windows should be spotless. The other pet peeve is that they coated just about everything inside the car with some sort of "protectant", the steering wheel, shift knob, parking brake handle, dash, door panels, and seats. It felt greasy to me which tells me that it's transferring from the seats to my cloths. The steering wheel and shift knob felt greasy. The parking brake handle and handle on the door panels felt REALLY lubed up. I'm guessing the leather absorbed some of whatever they put on, but it just sat on the synthetic surfaces. I really wish I had remembered to tell them to not put anything on the inside of the car. I went out with a mildly soapy cloth today, a damp cloth and a dry cloth and cleaned most of the surfaces.

Oh well.
