Starting Mobile Car Wash Business

I am close to launching my business but very confused on what cleaning chemicals to buy. I want to do the best work in town so I want the best chemicals to do the job right but still want to make a little money at too. I going to be doing mostly cars washing and some light detailing until I learn how to do a full detail. I have my van, pressure washer, vacuum, orbital polisher, generator etc. and there putting a big fat sign on my van today all I need to do is nail this chemical thing down I'll be good to go.

So I made a list

Tar/Grease Remover
One Step Wax
Wheel/Tire Cleaner
Rubber Dressing
Glass Cleaner
Glass Polish
Engine Cleaner
Engine Dressing
Chrome Polish
Vinyl/Leather Cleaner
Vinyl Dressing
Leather Conditioner
Deodorize
Exterior Shampoo


One other important thing is the size of the chemicals come in, a 8oz bottle of rubber dressing is not going to last me for long I think I need gal size for some of this stuff.


The only other equipment that I have not pick up yet is a carpet extractor these little guys are not cheap. I don't want to get a cheap Wal-mart thing but my money is starting to run out lol. Maybe someone might know where I get a used one.


Any help in choosing the right chemicals would be appreciated
