I think he saw the video for the tornado gun and figured he could do better with a few quarters

I found a couple of threads about this topic, but I wanted to ask in here just to make sure I would buy the correct kit. I have a customer with a prius who today I removed water spots and a ton of sap off of her car. I noticed she had a lot of fine lines all over her windshield and thought...

i normally charge around $40 for an RV wash. But that does include me getting on top and scrubbing the top down, too. Plus windows, wheels and tire dressin. I haven't dont a 50ft yet, but I might take the washing price to $45 or $50 just because. For a wax or sealant I normally stick to...

True, it makes it harder. But one thing that is definitely harder is paint correction. If you chemical dries up too fast before you correct the problem then you aren't really doin that great of a job and can be messing it up more. But other things as just washing in direct sunlight can be...

This chart might help ya a bit to get an understanding of how each of your chemicals cut/polish compared to one another. Autogeek Swirl Removers & Compounds Comparison Chart

I dont have an Aztec, but I would charge roughly the same as you have been. That is if you have been cleaning carpets and such. Just think about how long it would have taken you before and stick with that rate. You are still cleaning the same stuff, just now, better and easier. Its probably...

Re: Black spots on my truck if you dont want to clay your truck, especially if its all over it, try and get some tarminator. use a pressure sprayer, too, it should help.

Well, on the "business" side of things I would... Call your competitors, ask there prices and what it includes, and adjust accordingly. I wouldn't start out low priced while trying to build your rep. Don't sell yourself short. It has come back to me sometimes with my "cheap" customers...

Answer to your ? is Yes, there is a better way. But you have to asked yourself what is too much for what you are wanting to achieve. If its a car and you cant see too much of the chassis i would probably stick with the pressure sprayer, maybe even get a bucket of AP and water and scrub what I...

WOW, lots of info/?'s it seems. Well, first thing, where are you located? I ask because if you are in Orange County, CA double your prices ASAP. I start at $100 for a detail on a small car that isn't too dirty with light carpet shampoo needed. And I am just waxing the paint, not doing any...

Currently I buy my water from a local detail shop here and he softens then R/O his water. He says he stays below 15PPM always. It definitely does help the drying process as you dont really have to if the sun is out. Well, maybe the door jams and the leaks that the mirrors and light may have...

might want to look and see if your county or surrounding counties offer free career training. I know some in this area off auto detailing as one, for 180 hours. Maybe look there for some training

That is actually what I do whenever I dont want to break out the EZ up just to do a test spot for a customer to see the before and after. If it is too hot I lay down a damp micro-fiber (which is a good size for a test spot) and try casting a shadow myself over the area I am polishing on.

Iceman... how did you apply the PlastX??? How long have they stayed looking good after you polished them?

try peanut butter, not the xtra crunchy. just rub it in and rinse it off, then dry. I was surprised when i tried it on my Brother in laws truck
