It all depends on what needs to be done and who I'm doing it for.

In most cases I'd say $100-150 is fair for a small car as long as it doesnt need any extreme paint correction. But an ambulance is like 6 small cars, plus a lot of extra details like the lights and added parts (side door bins, etc).

$250 on top of your normal wage is certainly better than a flat $250.

we use to deatail ambulances at my job when I worked there. I think we charged 250 for a exterior wax and and full interior cleaning. I hated do those things in or out.
