I agree with the previous comments. Dealers will give you work. Be prepared to work cheap. I would focus on gathering detailing supplies and basic tools. Never mind the big power wash unit. Unless your gonna go wash houses or something. Get yourself a small gas or electric unit. I started...

I have one as well it's awesome and if you don't run it on its own 20 amp breaker it will trip your circuits. We do a lot of motorcycle detailing and couldn't imagine life without it. (Regardless) of wind speed coming out of the hose)

Ya guy's like this need a slap! Your best chance is to tape that bad boy up and start sanding. Depending on the thickness of the paint.if factory your good for 1500 and perhaps a little 1200 for the bad ones. My guess will be to shoot for removing MOST of the scratches and not all. That way if...

Yup you are right, your nuts!

Hope things are working out for you. When you have severely dried decals it can be a real pain. It's just time consuming. You asked what to charge. My suggestion to you is to establish a labor rate. Then you won't have to worry about losing your shirt when stuff doesn't go as planned. I have...

Here are the shelves I used in my 6x12 unit. All aluminum st they aren't heavy.

Wicked cool! We do a ton of bike detailing in the summer! Would be a pleasure to have you along with us!!! Nice work,

If there is any chance to trade the car for a truck that would be your best option for pulling a trailer. Then you could go a little bigger. I have a 6.5x12 with a ramp style rear entry. Had it wired by an electrician for outside/inside 120 amp power and 8" fluorescent interior lighting. I've...

Making bikers happy all summer long

A nineteen foot sail boat with Awlgrip paint. Polished to perfection

2014 black Denali, after 6 hours of polishing this truck was ready for show!

Heat is essential! I have done this type of work for a long time. Go to Loes, you can buy a nice heat gun for $40 and it will last you a lifetime. Yes an eraser wheel works nice but you will need a compressor and some of those tools can cost upwards of $500! Now for me I heat them, then take a...

Hey "sea Jay" I would assume Jason? We are in the lakes region, laconia area. We are about an hour or so from Billerica MA. Nice to meet you

The boys working hard on a chopper that needed some love

Here are some photos of me and my gang this year. We are proud detailers and love what we do!

Our newest edition to the business. Loaded with all the good stuff

Hello Jim, I'm new to this forum as well. long time detailer though. It's nice to see someone thinking green! We all could.... However that could be compared to running a marathon without proper carbs and hydration. Good luck

First off you say your deployed? Thank you for serving this great Country that allows all of us to be self employed doing what we love! On the steamer, having been in business for over 20 years detailing everywhere including people's driveway's. Nothing will ever replace WATER! I have watched...

I almost think this is all too much. ozone for 24 hours? What was the dealer thinking! Then a bag of air fresheners on top of that. Now your just chasing all the wrong they caused. One would think after the paintwork, a thorough cleaning would have worked. We have all smelled cars fresh from...

A few years back I had a thermal cp 5. Talk about a headache! It broke all the time and repairs were expensive. I currently have a malco xtrax 1200. It's bigger but there is always at least two of us to lift it into the van. It works well and seems to be bullet proof. I went for the bigger unit...
