Maybe, but Joe is saying "
I have professionally polished over 70,000 vehicles." not "My company has professionally polished over 70,000 vehicles."
You can detail some cars in 3 hours, but not most. Probably 3.5 to 4 hours is what you should allow for each car. Some you will do faster and some will take longer, but your average should be somewhere in there.
My business is mobile, so my costs won't really compare to a fixed location, but you need to consider phone and utility costs, advertising, supplies, start-up equipment, etc and then double that amount. You should have 3-6 months of operating costs banked before you open.
