if there are only light swirls, you probably don't want to use either. something like swirlx you would want to use, or an AIO like optimum poli seal. Least aggressive method first.

cobra guzzler HD's are amazing, I used to use a couple meguiars waffle weaves (which are a joke in comparison) to dry my car, which then I moved just to using a big cobra towel (yellow ones) while spraying optimum detailer before drying off. Now I use the guzzler hd, they are thick and you only...

you should do a little more research, on forums or google. washing the vehicle will not affect clay barring as its purpose is to remove embedded contaminants that a wash simply is unable to do. I personally use Optimum Power Clean as my APC. LSP is last step product, such as a wax or sealant. I...

agree, since fandango I think at least your interior price point is low. your wash is on par to what I have listed and is typical for a wash n wax from a car wash establishment in my area. It can make it easier to set prices that are similar to a couple of local car wash establishments where you...

oh sorry I was stating it as I use it, after an ONR wash during the drying process

just an input of instant detailer if you find it streaking and difficult to remove dilute to 4:1 then youll be fine, no more streaking. some paints act differently with the product. and also like you mentioned, a little goes a long way. only need two sprays per panel (smaller panels 1) n spread it.

again if you are thinking of keeping the carpet cleaner. Optimum Power clean is great to use for tires, degreaser, interior, and pretty much anything that needs cleaning. Optimum Leather Protectant is good for everything in the interior- dash, door panels, vinyl, trim, leather seats. definitely...

lol well I still haven't began promoting yet and don't have customers yet, but I have my business card, facebook pg all set up and some pictures of my car and detail I have done on my dads car, More of my concern is if people will pay the price point in packages I have set (i know they have...

I am a "hobby detailer" and have been doing my car for a few years (only by hand work) and I am also looking to begin a summer side job. I am in the same situation (in terms of I'm expecting people to do a typical package like a wash n wax and interior). People have seen me detail my car for...

i did a hand correction using euro ccs foam pads (aka man vs machine method) with UC and it finished to what looked LSP ready. although I used UP, it might not have been necessary as I was highly impressed with how UC finished, it was hard to believe it was a compound, since it finished like a...

optimum poli-seal

Yea I get you, the links and help are appreciated...I'm no pioneer lol, I know mobile detailing is a big thing, maybe not in my area, let alone hand washes tend to be a second focus in manhattan. Establishments are dominated by fast auto washes..which is why my small scale venture can...

I read the posts in each thread and i still do not get the feeling that there is anything wrong with 1 layer of sealant with 1 layer of wax (which is what i do - i dont do 2- 3,layers of each etc). Multiple layers of each might be a diff story as mentioned in posts/and mike...but with my service...

You're saying having a sealant and wax combo doesn't do anything? I haven't heard of that (maybe someone can chime in), I wouldn't see why a sealant and wax combo would not be affective if you have at the minimum clay'ed the car,and/or polished by hand. To my knowledge the effectiveness depends...

Yea, I didn't put them in order, just figured the first thing you see under a wash, is exterior. I personally do it either two different methods: either wash wheels first with power clean/agitate/hose off... or rinse the wheels prior to exterior wash with water to get loose dirt off wheels and...

Id like constructive criticism on price of a basic wash or my price based on type of consumer/ type of business being run. Im not polishing in the sun.

Actually if ur familar with nyc theyre a ton of buildings so its a little easier to find cars shaded then u might think, but i get your point. Helping with suggestion of price points would be more helpful, then ill realize it on my own. Since its by appointment, the price points wouldn't dictate...
