Just curious to see what everyone else does on a general full detail that isn't advertised as paint correction. I am doing full details for $125/$150, which takes me about 4 hours with two people (son). I usually wash, clay, Mothers witih Carnuba followed with NXT 2.0 or Duragloss by hand...

Visited the Chiropractor the other day - jammed up once again. I really need to invest in a machine but anyway. Apparantly the Chiropractor does some side detailing as well but no longer has the time, so I left the business cards and he is going to refer his customers to me including a boat...

Anyone have some suggestions for me I need a good over the counter leather care product for a job tomorrow. I don't know the color or condition of the leather but it is in a fairly new Sequoia SUV. So I am hoping they are in fairly good condition and just need a quick conditioning.

Well I cleaned some wheels today that were horribly dirty, which probably took at least an hour. I sprayed the Eagle AtoZ on them and the wheels laughed at that. So I reverted to the SOS pad that I have used successfully on other steel type rims. Good news is the customer was so satisfied with...

After about 6 years of wanting to start a mobile auto detailing business I finally followed through. This will be a part time gig for me due to I like my day job and I live in KS. I'd like to post some pictures but for some reason every time I try to post pictures it fails, so this is a list of...

I recently used Mothers Carnauba Cleaner Wax and followed it up with DG 106 followed by 105 (two coats). I have washed and few times and utilised the AW spray. I am happy with the results but looking for other combinations that will provide better results. This is on a 2008 Dodge - Black Pearl...

The more I read and study these forums the more I realize I didn't know much about detailing. Ok let me run this by everyone - 1997 white Grand Prix needs some TLC (some blemishes and swirles). Wash Use Clay bar (brand unsure - saw some Megiures at Wal Mart for $10.00) PB White Diamond...

Alright I am new to the business and I want to get my process and products in line for this summer. First without the experience what process would be best for a beginer: wash/dry paint cleanser clay wash/dry wax/polish In addition, all I have ever used is a orbital. Obviously to get the...

I am wanting to make my own mobile wash unit to place in the back of my truck. Can you utilize a regular power washer and hook it up directly to a water tank? Or do you have to have some sort of water pump in between to get the water to flow from the tank to the power washer? Probably a stupid...

Thoughts on just detailing interior only including carpet extracting? I have been detailing my own cars, family and friends for some time now and I feel confident in taking this to the next level. However, I know there are many things to learn and services to upgrade into! My opinion is the only...
