You get what you pay for.

I'll detail my interiors prior to winter hibernation. This take me more than 20 hours, working a few hours each day after work. The final step will be a fresh coat of RejeX, then covered.
Totally agree...at least not the job I do. Maybe there are guys with high speed orbitals that are skilled enough and can then cut the time way down and have multiple other guys helping with the washing and prep work. I use a high quality 6 speed random orbital so takes much longer.

The thought of hibernation would make me sad, gotta love those Chicago winters!
