I visited your website. I like that you promote Eco Detailing on your home page ... how is that received? I get mixed reactions from my customers.
I am in So Cal, grew up in Boston. When I talk to several of the East Coast guys, they do not focus on reduction of water, capture and proper discharge. California you cannot avoid it.
In viewing your gallery, I see lots of wet ground around the beautiful vehicles.
How do you clean a car? Are there requirement to use wash capture mats, etc, or do most in your area just wash away?

I have to say that most of my customers were more impressed about my concern to be compliant and a legit mobile business more than anything. Obviously, there are benefits for everyone in going green, but most of my competition has been cash only/ no insurance guys. I have laid the proper foundation in getting my business known, always focusing on quality, and I continue to focus on improving my results. Cali has always been ahead of the game when it comes to the environment, and as a concerned business owner, I maintain a close eye on what is taking place in the west coast. There were a few officials that had spoken to me about my operation which drove me to decide that green is the only feasible option. Whatever you do ultimately has its consequences when its not done right, and I truly do not want to find myself in a bad spot with not focusing on my requirements as a business operator. This September is when I went completely green with my services, so some of my pictures in the photo gallery are from months prior tot he changes. Nice observation with seeing the ground wet. A photographer once told me that a wet ground is a must when photographing a vehicle because it makes the picture more attractive. I will most likely wet the ground with fresh water when doing photoshoots for that reason, but during my services I do not let more than 2 gallons of water hit the ground. From researching through this site, I have found that using ONR would be very good for my business. I still try new things to make sure that I am staying on top of my game, but ONR has provided a great tool to not have the headaches of all the very expensive alternatives such as reclaim mats, etc. Thanks for the interest in my thread.
Stay well,
Jason
