Prices and Products???

**xcracer48** · 06-16-2009, 01:48 PM

I need some help. I have been washing cars for about a year now. Just got into autogeek and all and its awesome. I want to know what you guys charge and what products you use. Which products are a must have for you and why? It is killing me that some people are tearing me to pieces with prices around here. So I need help with choosing cheaper products that do just as good jobs as more expensive products.

Any help is highly appreciated

Wash- Megs Gold Glass
Wash mitt- lambs wool
Drying towel- waffle weave microfiber
Buckets- 2 five gallon+grit gaurd ( I get those for free)
APC- Megs APC

Meguiar's APC or APC+ can be a great addition to your arsenal.

Thats the wash I wash looking at. I am currently using Adams wash. But I figured I could find something else and cheaper than $30. So I do believe I will start using gold glass. At $9 I don't think I can go wrong. So I will add that to the list.

Are you just trying to sell a simple car wash? OR are you offering various levels of car cleaning? Do you clean the wheels? Do you wax the car? Do you do anything to the interior? All these things require extra tools and extra products. And yes there are good products across the board that are cost effective. On this site, take a look at the Meguiar's gallon sizes. Also check out Duragloss. Awesome products available in gallon sizes.

Welcome! Keep reading everything you can.

Wash, wax, shampoo carpets, clean & condition leather, protect interior dash and trim. Clay, hand polish, wax, and sealant. Soon hope to buy porter cable and do minor correction.

Just looking for some input on cheaper products that do just as good as some of these more expensive products.

btw I just washed a car this morning and used gold glass for the first time and it worked well. I also used ultimate quickwax instead of adams detail spray for drying and both products worked very well!
