How much does it generallly cost to get someone who is good to wash your car?

I had a bum offer to wash mine for me the other day and I guess now I'm glad I didn't take him up on the offer, though it was tempting.

I too have the dreaded caliper clear coat chipping and peeling. I am
going to redo them this summer. A question about this link.

[QUOTE=Lil bastard]Go here:

Wouldn't the primer also have to have a high temp rating?

It would seem to me that the primer would just bubble and peel, taking
the new paint with it. Any thoughts?
