I ended up doing the prep and coat myself. Took me a full day - nearly 10 hours and killed my back but it was fun project and I saved nearly $1200 based on qoutes I was getting from local detailers.
Definitely worth the effort - car stayed as clean as possible even though we had constant daily rain for 2 weeks after I picked up the car.
Gave the car it's first wash and it was a much much easier job. Water, soap/foam, and everything literally just beads off. Using a leaf blower and the car is dry within 5 minutes!
