i can easily take a full day detailing a truck, wash it, dry, then hand wax out side, ( we dont have a buffer and it would just take all the clear off of our truck) then polish the wheels, shine tires, then go to inside, it doesnt sound like much, but if you use the compounds and do it in the steps it will take all day, and maybe 2 depending on how late you feel like staying up and what time you start
