Re: City Requires Mobile Detailers to Capture Run Off!

wow, weekend warrior. you PM'd me, so I gave you an answer ... but by your post here, it would appear to me that you are a weekender, and not a professional.

You are making my point that most in this industry are technicians, not business people. 2 days on a detail ... 6 hours perfecting paint ... holy cow, that is embarrassing from my point of view.

And, let's say I accept your logic, that most autopians are like you ... then in aggregate, you are all an issue. Law of big numbers

You will see, the regulators will fix this as I agree this is the dominant view of those here. That's why I share these threads with the regulators, so they can get a sense of what the industry really thinks.

Thanks for making my point.

I am passionate, and I am motivated by making money. That’s why I call it Water $mart Eco Detailing. I think it is a great model. When I sit 100 feet from the entrance of a Nordstrom’s … there is no way I could spend 2 days on that $80,000 Mercedes 2 years old. We spend about an hour with a team of 2 for $179 … thank you very much. Do you get over $1,200 for your 2 days of effort? Customers love the quality and convenience.

Don’t be mislead by threads on a forum as the best practices my friend … be open to learning new things.

Invitation still open to contact me. Honestly, i think you are well intentioned.

PS Autopians … is this true?
