    I'm not surprised that you're not getting much feedback. It's not that you're young mind you, but you've got to ask specific questions.

    Have you read the articles at AG university accessible via their store page? There is a flowchart guide there that gives you the sequence of events in a detail. Generally it goes:

    1. wash
    2. dry
    3. clay
    4. polish
    5. sealant/wax

    Going through all 5 steps, even with the proper tools takes a good 8-12 hours for exterior and interior. I don't think many people would want to leave their car that long so look at staying on the basic side of offerings like wash and dry with maybe a good spray wax, wash, clay and wax, etc.

    Not sure if you have the tools to do an interior. Are you going to use the owner's water or electricity? Things to think about...

    If you are just getting started and doing it as a way to make some money this summer you will probably be mobile so you should probably search for articles related to mobile detailing. You should also look into acquiring products that will work in the sun (like poorboys) although sometimes it is just impossible to do anything on a hot car.
    I told my wife that a husband is like a fine wine; he gets better with age. The next day, she locked me in the cellar.
