Wax is dead to me.

I dig coatings, but most aren't willing to pay the additional price. If I were only doing my own cars that's probably the route I would go

Looking at the price of a bottle of DP coating and having had the chance to see it over applied down in Northern Virginia at one of their detailing get togethers, compared to the cost of a tub of decent carnauba wax, considering the time savings of doing a quick coating of such a product, (time is money right) my business sense justifies the use of such a product at no additional charge on most vehicles I see.

Of course there will be no warranty offered or even discussed in such a scenario. Just my prerogative to choose such an option for time savings and labor reduction and to maintain a nice shine in the end at a comparable price.

Optimum has priced their product right out of my business plan when their product (pro version) nearly doubled in price, so my hopes are that the DP offering will fit my plans even better...

After all who wants to do a job for a customer just once and then not be needed again for years? If the DP offering lasts a year on this commercial vehicle, I can offer a yearly coating with maintenance washes in between.

The old me...that is "Tuscarora Dave, the newbie to detailing" would have lost his arse on a big rig like that mobile classroom, going around it taking way too long doing way too much, and just to please me the detailer...not the customer who only cares about a clean looking rig that's easier to wash.

The "me" that I am today, having been raked over the coals of having to become profitable in order to stay alive as a business, has no qualms about racing around this thing washing it then wiping on $50 worth of a clear, wipe on walk away coating that's not going to turn white weeks later. That's the plan anyway so If they take the bait, it's on.
