The thread you are thinking of was on another forum. I agree with the other posters here, it's not a good idea. If you want to just put business cards on people's cars (targeted for headlight correction), you might get away with that, but doing the work in the Wal-Mart lot is going to get you into trouble. Consider the source in that thread, that guy used to go into the houses he was detailing cars at and take pictures of people's bedrooms and post them on the internet...he don't have a lot of sense.
He was young and dumb then...I guess he's still, well, I wouldn't be doing corrections in the Wal-Mart parking lot.
It wouldn't have been so bad if the guy's bedroom wasn't a mess. He claimed afterward to have permission to post all those pictures. It was "look at this rich guy's lake house that I got to detail at! and he left me alone while I was doing it and said I could go in the house etc. and I took all these pictures" including the unmade bed. Then he boasted about how much he got paid, etc. Anyway.
Flash, I tried looking for it but all the pictures are gone from those old threads.
Hum?
I wouldn't do this.
Hack detailing at it's finest.
I taze people who come up to me in parking lots
As a mobile detailer I see no difference between driving to a client's house, driving to a client's workplace, or driving to a walmart. Of course you can't do a complete detail at a walmart because you don't have access to water and electricity, but for doing spot repair jobs like headlights there is no technical problem there.
Well it seems a lot of members have concluded that detailing at a Walmart parking lot won't be a good idea.
So maybe some of you guys can come up with a better idea?
I think Detailer's go to the owners residence? So maybe something like that? (Just trying to help)
I would love to see an actual dictionary description of hack detailingI have seen the term thrown around a lot. My interpretation of it was people not knowing what they were doing......
Why don't you talk with the store manager and see if this is a service they could offer and sub the work to you?
