Hi all just new to the board. OH DUH why else would I be introducing myself?
I am also very new, nearly untried, to the business.

I have just completed my second retirement. One being for 22 Military years service. In reality, the two retirements are combined for a total of just over 35 years. Anyway it is on to something else. And I hope this works out.

My name is Eric, Nickname “Frosty” for the silver hair and because I am in North Pole Alaska and enjoy the out doors except when it is 60 below.

My plan is basically an indoor had car wash with Detailing as the second fiddle. It is a Valet type service (we pick up and deliver the vehicles to businesses who want to keep up the image during the winter it is 18 miles to the nearest automated carwash, that being in Fairbanks, with the only competition being a coin operated spry wash thing that is closed 9 months of the year. I am currently working out of a small 35X40 foot shop with a dry well water recover system I am using astro-turf on the floor for a silt filter before it get to the drain to keep my well (sump) clear.
I am purposely keeping it small to avoid the EPA and their college wiz kids out of my hair.
Anyway, I am here for some hints on doing a good job while providing a little more than beer money so any help that can be offered It will be appreciated.
