Oh yeah, my personal favorite threads start with...

" Hi, I am starting my own auto detailing business, What products and tools do I need, we start next Monday.....

Well, I understand where your coming from Grizzly. but I really don't mind at all helping someone out thats just getting started. I just want them to be aware of the many pit falls they will be instore for

I also hate to see someone spend an unnecessary amount of money (probally money they really don't have in the first place) I say start slow, get a feel for this business and then concentrate on expanding your services as the need presist

My freind Bob Willis once said.....If detailing was easy, everyone would be doing it...

Now, I must get back outside and get to work in this lovely 34 degree day the Lord has blessed me with.
