    Towel storage for mobile detailers?

    Hey guys/gals, I was curious on what mobile guys use for towel storage on the go? I have read about rubbermaid type containers and that's about it. I'm interested to hear how you guys take your towels from job to job or on the job. Thanks in advance, Tory

    Yet another question for the geniuses: Should I clay first?

    Here's a rule you can use on more than just clay. Start with the least aggressive first and change accordingly if needed. And as far as if you need to clay, I would say a baggie test which is taking a ziplock bag and feeling the surface of the paint. Why a bag you ask? Using a bag increases...

    New address CopperHead Road - I hate snakes ;-)

    Tony, Wow fella...I would have needed more than just new underwear on that badboy. I'm TERRIFIED of snakes of any size and that would have made me faint! glad it worked out for you though.

    DOUBLE REVIEW: Mytee Firebird & HP60 Hot Water Carpet Extractor

    I have the Firebird and love it. I kinda ruined the smaller brush attachment so I could wrap a folded MF towel over it with a hair band for dirty seats. Works great.

    What % of car owners use commercial car washes?

    I would say 90% goto car washes as most people just don't know what a detail is or can offer and just think they can do it themselves.

    Areas of the Country with Strong Market for Detailing
