As long as there have been cars on the road, there have been professional detailers. In the 1940s, professional detailing shifted from services rendered to elite motorcar owners to a car dealership service. Until the 1970s, most car dealerships had a staff of professional detailers. Economic changes forced dealerships to contract detailing ut to the lowest bidder, spawing the booming detailing business we have today.
