    I agree totally. I must be "sloth slow" compared to some of the folks here and how fast they work. I remember recently a detailer on here saying he had been busy doing 30-40 a week! I'm like damn if you do 35 and work 7 days a week 12 hours a day you are only taking 2.4 hours per car and doing 5 in a 12 hour day not counting eating, bathroom breaks, pre start prep, post clean up, or travel to and from details. That is amazing and I would love to actually witness that.

    When you're doing it to put food on your table I'm sure you are more productive. It's all in training yourself. I'm more of the "28 minutes to get my hose, fill the buckets, get the wheel cleaner, etc." kind of guy

    Quite right.... You definately have to have a system down and can't afford the time to stray away from it at all. My max is two basic details a day. Normally taking from 4-6 hrs a piece, depending on size, how severe damage and what cust actually pays for.
