Equipment -
We have a power washer
Shop Vac - I haven`t looked to closely at these yet as I feel that are all pretty much the same. If someone has a recommendation on one, that would be great.

I`m sure there is some equipment that I`m missing, but I`m drawing a blank.
Thanks for the help.

I would suggest a pad in between cut and finish. As for shop vacs, look at the HP rating. Size means nothing. If you don`t get one with some boys downstairs your going to find yourself doing twice the work you should have to. Next, what interior cleaner will you be using? There a lot of good ones out there and many ways of going about it. I would also suggest starting out with a Little Green Machine as an extractor for carpet. Don`t let the size and price fool you. These things work very well for cars with the right solution.

only thing missing is you maybe calling Autogeek or Poorboy`s for a quote to get your supplies

[Poorboy]

would be happy to quote wholesale prices if you have a tax id #

we`ve set up quite a few new business`s this Spring

[YNOT]

I`d highly recommend a RIDGID® or CRAFTSMAN® wet/dry vac...two of the best brands on the market. Both offer a wide variety of sizes, Peak HP and accessories to completely outfit your detailing business.

Agree on the shopvac and recommend the Rigid (at Home Depot) over craftsman and Lowes brand.

I can`t say how long the Craftsman will last mine is only 34 years old and still runs strong. Check with me in another ten years.

That`s about the same time that you run out of QD spray right?
