Their companies that charge more than this and don't actually figure the shipping cost into the price. This is not the most expensive detail you can find if you know where to look.

8K for detailing and wrap and transportation and 10k as gtr nismo tax

@@star32godzilla not even close lol

Topaz is the best detailers in the world. no clue their prices. but i bet they are 10000x times better than this guy will ever dream to be and are a fraction the costs

@@SourBogBubblewhat are you basing that on? Have you compared their work? Topaz are a completely different type of business model and service than Status Detail.

Bro. Listen to what the man says.

Thank you! I definitely love what I do 👍🙂

@@STATUSDETAILGreat job on the detail! As a customer the price is irrelevant once you find someone who genuinely cares about their work.

@@samcheeseman2750 thank you! Love what I do and make sure anyone coming here is given the highest level of care!

And keeps it looking that way for ten years. Then you can unwrap. Rewrap. And have a new car again 👍 Nearly priceless on a car that will appreciate over time.

how do u figure that when the car is brand new and clean from factory?..no detail job is worth 18k

@@suprarune apparently this one was. And basically every other job I do lol

​@suprarune a fool and his money shall be parted everyday

Thank you for watching and commenting! The gtr is a awesome platform. Very reliable. Very fast. Very tuneable. Very affordable!

Thank you! Love comments like this! The upcoming Ferrari video should be even better than this one!!

Thank you! I think the issue is me haha. I need to post more!!!!

Thanks for watching and commenting! 458 speciale edit should be next. Might be one of the best videos yet!!!

Thanks Obsessed Garage. Love seeing you around the channel 🙂🤝

Thank you for watching and interacting! Viewers like yourself help the channel grow 🙂👍

Thank you for watching and being respectful in the comments unlike many silly people commenting nonsense lol 🙂🤝

Agreed. Vinyl is very difficult as is PPF. The stress and frustration to learn and get to this level literally gave me gray hair and invented new swear words along the way lol.

Agreed! I talk about this in a few videos especially on nasty defects requiring sanding. We aim to remove all the defects and jewel the paint into a ridiculously glossy state and then lock that in. But managing clear coat depth is a serious thing! If your thinking about that your already leagues ahead of most PPF installers 👍

Definitely! It can really be a big difference when you see it side by side like that. Especially comparing a PPF car to no PPF car after 10-20k miles.

You got a $7k detail for a $50k vehicle? Delusional lmao

@@Gborohooo everyone values services differently. Some people won't spend more than $30 at the ultimate automatic car wash. Some will spend over 20k so it's all relative to the owner and how much they value the car and the work being done. And nuclear I'm not talking about value in the sense of appreciation or depreciation I'm talking about personal value like the love, passion and enjoyment you get from your car because being happy in that sense is not something that can have a value assigned to it. So if you can afford the service most will do it it a heartbeat

Thank you! I'm going to try and get the Ferrari 458 speciale video out in a timely fashion lol

OMG! That is one of my favs. Can’t wait to see that one now. You shouldn’t have told me that. ;)

Thank you for watching 🙂

Thank you! Th bfull body PPF was actually less than that. Shipping was definitely expensive. Appreciate you watching and commenting as you certainly understand how difficult this job is 🤝

Great there's a 13k discount and no heavy plastic added - result

@@adrianadrianp5305 I'm confused lol

Honest question. Why would ppf cost that much more than a wrap?

@@drewbienewbie03xx81 not sure I can accurately respond because I don't offer or install vinyl personally. I'm guessing the material is less expensive. I'm also guessing it's easier to install and faster. Not to say it's easy. But I think ppf is harder.

Thanks for watching the full video 🙂 all our customers are well informed about pricing and alternatives before scheduling. No tricking done here.

It’s easier to trick cheapskates

If an upper class folk is in the upper class it’s because they dont get tricked and know how to spend and use money most of the time

​@STATUSDETAIL yes they know the price up front, but you market the service as if you do a lot more than other detail providers. Other than the shipping, others do the same process for half the price. If you really do more, show the work being done in the video. No hate, as long as you market to the clients you want and it works, more power to you. Good business model

@@veteransforequality7347 all my videos show the work. That's why I'm booked for months. I market that I do the best work with the best customer service. You just seem to be struggling with the price. Nothing wrong with that. I promise I won't force you to send your car here lol

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

I'll be the first one to tell you I'm expensive lol. I tell everybody including customers you can find a less expensive job. But it won't be the same experience. When you own such a expensive car the extra few thousand dollars is like deciding if you want Fry's with your burger. It's not a big deal one way or another. Some people do go to the less expensive places too. No problem with me. Gotta do what's best for you! Thanks for commenting 🙂🙂

To some extent every KZfaq video is an ad. KZfaq for creators is a business.

Do remember this includes a fair amount of shipping cost👍

Worth it. And the job was primo

@@Caa310 thanks 🙂

​@STATUSDETAIL , it costs under $2k for an enclosed carrier shipment of a car from CA to NY. You know you guys profited hella bank off of this. The fact that YOU brought up the $18k and are acting like a huge portion of that is going to shipping gives sleazy used car salesman vibes. You put $18k for the click bait and people are (appropriately) calling you out for it. I don't think I've ever seen AMMO NYC tallk about price in a video, but everyone knows he charges 4-figures for a wash. But no one calls him out even though he's making bank on it cuz he doesn't click bait people with it and cower behind, "Oh but there's shipping."

@@Alimoalem click bait would mean the customer didn't pay that amount total to do this job. But he did. It's not click bait. I am not ammo. I title my videos differently.

They started out watching ammo too! So it's pretty awesome to see people mention his name and then my name or that they view my channel too! Very cool. Thanks for watching

Thank you 🙂🤝

Thanks for the feedback. Larry makes great videos! Check out some of my other videos. Lots of information on this channel 👍

So true , i got the same opinion .. talks too much, overrated work.

@@cristiancarson6009 so no feedback to make it better. Got it.

I was literally searching the comments to make sure I wasn’t the only one thinking this. Dude doesn’t seem humble at all and the demeanor of his business is something I don’t get. I would recommend for him to be more educational, less “we do it best” and just a little less focused on how “perfect and better he is” his work looks nice. Not taking that away from him. However as a viewer, all I heard was “I’m the shit, everyone else is meh because they’re not blessed to have such cars”. I know so many installers that put out the same work and they all think they’re the best in the world. That 18k is wild tho good lord 😂 18k is money you pay for like actual unique custom art. Not a ppf job,

@@Joey_Maldo_15 check out my other videos. Lots of diy educational stuff. If you watched this video you know I said I'll be teaching many advanced PPF things in coming videos for free. Many people charge hundreds of dollars for online classes that will be nearly identical digital content. In previous videos I get comments saying I'm giving away all my secrets lol. Appreciate you watching 🙂

Thanks! But I thought it was pretty awesome looking!!

What a incredibly nice comment! Thank you 🙂🙂

Yes! Two Ferraris coming soon!

Thanks!!

No problem at all 🙂 Thank you for watching! And appreciate the pricing in your comment. When you figure in my price minus shipping I'm typically more but obviously very competitive considering the product I turn out. So for many people the shipping as seen as no big deal to just make sure it's done perfectly. Almost like buying insurance. A status detail is a pretty sure thing lol. But shippya car is a bit inconvenient for some and well it can be expensive so it won't be for everyone. Glad you got your car squared away and hope you enjoy many fun miles with it 🙂👍🤝

I would think they do great work but I've never seen it up close. I'm not sure how that business is structured currently either. I'm sure they have multiple employees. So that introduces questions like how many of them do PPF. Do the ones with most experience only do the really expensive cars or do you have a vetaren doing a car with a guy who has 6 months experience? At what point do you trust the new guy to work on a car by himself? I'm my opinion that's over a year because PPF is complex. Most companies can't afford to train a guy that long then risk he just leaves to make all the money himself. Tricky business. I've seen many of the videos on there channel. I think overall they must be doing a great job and are a good source of detailing information. Todd appears to be a top notch detailer. The tricky part is who else is doing all the work. That's why this business currently is essentially completely me. So you know my last car will look like my next car. No inconsistency from employee to employee. Safe to say esoteric does high end work. As does Larry at ammo and the other big names

Thank you 🙂🙂

STEK has 10 year warranty! Theoretically it should last much longer than that if your garage captain not driving it very much like I assume this car will be used. It is however a good idea to remove it around 8 9 10 years old is if you wait too long it can be difficult to remove. But that's more common when a car is like outside every day.

Thanks!

Pressure is always 2000psi. 2 something gpm. Ar blue 630. I get pretty close but knowing when and keeping it moving is very important. Helpful to blow bugs off. Helpful to prep seals and jams.

What you see is OEM orange peel

Topaz does great work. An honor to be mentioned along side them. Thank you for watching 🙂🙂

Hello! I use a cannon R6 with L series lens. Dint remember the zoom but it can zoom in and out a bit.

@@STATUSDETAIL As always. Thanks for replying 🙂🙂

Thanks!

😀😀 I'm back!

Thanks!

@@hilariomata4280 love it!

Sanding is th only fix. In some situations I feel like STEK PPF actually made the orange peel a little nicer looking and some 9/11s that I've done but it's pretty subtle. Unfortunately BMW Mercedes and Audi all have pretty aggressive orange peel. We just bought an X5M competition as a family car and that also has pretty gnarly orange peel for an over six figure car. I agree it's unfortunate but I'm used to it and was prepared for it so my expectations are low for paint on those cars lol.

@@STATUSDETAIL Thank you! Enjoy the X5M! Maybe a vid on that car? When you have time haha!!😅

@@MuffinMoney lol definitely planning a video! Ultimate Mom car detail or something like that

🙂👍

The only way you remove orange peel is before PPF. You must sand the entire car. It's very tricky. Very time consuming. Extremely expensive

@@STATUSDETAIL Thanks for the response.

Thanks! Typically it's various soaps. Reset. Bathe. G wash. CarPro lift. Gyeon foam. Gtechniq citrus foam. I use various stuff 🙂

@@STATUSDETAIL Much appreciated. I've been trying to figure out a product that will rid my rims of brake dust. So far the iron remover and brake buster have not worked. I will try some of those.

@@Doesin I spray brake buster. Then foam on top. You need brushes to agitate tho.

Thank you for watching 🙂

I think having them work together is one of the best systems you can have

Not sure on the music. It's a remix from sick ick and then I usually change things slightly again. This detail was pretty extreme You can definitely get the price down a little bit but overall still get an amazing detail. If you're interested in shipping just head over to my website and either give me a call or email me. I'm definitely happy to help!

@@STATUSDETAIL thanks! Clearly amazing work and you clearly have passion.

mug?

Oh man I bet a red one would have looked very cool especially with the carbon parts!!!!

Thank you. You definitely understand! Interestingly enough the last week and a half or two weeks I totally stopped using gel. I have found that using no gel is way way way way way way way way...m better lol. I think as I was learning I felt like gel was this magic thing that probably built in some fake confidence. Now that I'm very proficient it installing film and I dropped the gel I realized that it's actually way easier to install without it. The gel actually makes it stick faster which can be helpful on maybe smaller panels but on the more complicated larger panels it causes actually a lot of problems because it's just soap and water gives you way more working time and will reduce lines in other issues. So for the foreseeable future I'm just on j&j soap and di water.

​@@STATUSDETAIL Hahaha, good to know! Thanks for sharing your experience. You're top class. What about for your tack? Are you using standard isopropyl mix? I can't wait for the advanced PPF videos! Did you say you're using steamers now? Best regards

@@frankl9098 Yes I'm definitely using steam now. It's handy for a lot of different things I'll try and show that in some videos or at least talk about it. I think I use like 91% or 93% ISO. I mix 7ml into 1,000 ml of water I believe. I use gallons of distilled baby water from grocery store. Glad you're enjoying the videos 🙂🤝🤝

@@STATUSDETAIL Thanks so much. 🙏 Keep setting the bar and sharing the passion!

👍👍

Thanks! So glad you found status! PPF is super hard. It will make you go crazy learning and if you get good enough and dint give up you can be proficient. Then you go down the advanced hole and lose your mind again lol. I use CSL and v5. Both are incredibly good especially exo v5.

@@STATUSDETAIL nice. Thank u for the feedback. I see you respond to just about everyone's comments which is Not easy to do...especially when There's Soo many of them. Thank u. 🙏🏽 Keep up the good work.

@@johnboy5632 my pleasure! I do my best to interact with you all that interact with me 🤝👍🙂

Thanks!

Great question. So much is not shown. That fender area was cut out as it needs to be cut out to install. Each individual vent has PPF installed one by one after 👍 All painted or I should say clear coated surfaces on the exterior have PPF. Including rear diffuser and partial underside of rear.

That was a phone led. Surprisingly very efficient.

it works basically like a sticker with really strong adhesive

Thank you for understanding and the kind words! Many more videos coming!

Thanks 🤝🤝🙂id happily take care of it 👍

I've seen everything from around 20 to 50 miles. I would imagine some of the facilities the cars are at are pretty large so driving the car to and from different spots puts miles on? It's a great question maybe someone can give us some insight
