Hey guys, I know there's a ton of threads out there on wheels. I just had a quick question about wheels. I am going to be detailing a friend's 70's corvette for a car show tomorrow night. He has the...
Well, this is why I upsell claying. You talk to your customers and just explain that you are washing and waxing the vehicle and it will come out looking great. But right after that, mention to them...
I think it also depends on the size of the vehicle. Make sure you charge accordingly for that. Everyone is different, but I upsell the claying process. Most people don't care, but the ones that do...
Haha. I am in the same exact boat as you dude. My birthday is at the end of this month, so hopefully soon! My family thinks I'm weird because I want detailing stuff lol. BTW, good job on the car,...
That's a good write up. Thanks Mike, pretty funny as well lol. I am just hoping I can talk over the condition of the paint with my boss and hopefully convince him to let me work on it. We shall see....
Aww sorry to hear that man. But like you said, sometimes it's better to cut your losses than deal with someone who can just cause you to hate doing the work. Your doing this because you enjoy it, no...
I gotcha. Thanks for the advice! I may just clay the car and seal it with a wax for now. Wait until the end of the month when I will hopefully get a DA polisher. Looks like I may try the SwirlX on...
Yeah, thanks! I am on the fence because I know most of my customers won't really need (well, want) those processes done. But I feel like the few times I MAY need it each year, it would make the work...
As of now, yes, I am working by hand. I hope I get gift cards to AG or enough cash to put towards getting my own DA polisher. Even though I won't need it too often, I know I would use it on my own...
Hey all, Happy Monday. Hope you all had a good Easter. With that being said I will give you a quick back drop to my saturday and then proceed with the questions.
Just watched. Helped a lot and as always, you kept it simple enough for anyone to understand and this was perfect timing. I'm cleaning leather seats tomorrow! Thanks Mike!
Nice!! Chopping wood is a great workout I have heard! Way to take advantage of the weather! I basically sat in my office and did a bunch of nothing today. REEEAAALLLY lacked motivation because I've...
I usually follow this in that I wax my car after evey other wash or so. If I have time, I do it after every wash, depending on how long it has been. So I say I apply a coat of wax once to twice a...
Just curious about something. If the VLR does the same thing as the Protectant and the Cleaner do seperately, where and for what did you use them? I have heard VLR is a great AIO, but I have also...
I do this VERY part-time and most of the customers I have opt for my "midway" package. It's basically a quick detail:wash, wax, dress tires, do windows, wipe down and vacuum interior. I am charging...
Happy Friday to you sir!! I'm in southeast PA so I will be enjoying the same gorgeous weather as you Alex!! So pumped!! Tonight I will probably hit the gym and then just relax.
