Looking to start my detailing business
Ok ! This is what I would like to know. What kit should I start with. I have 2 craftsman buffer/polishers 1 and 7 in. That 3800 random orbits per minute and a craftsman 10 in. Should I keep them. Will they help me.

The 10" won't--could you give us some more detail on the other one?
As far as what kit to start your business--will you be full time, mobile/fixed, friends/family, what?

Re: Looking to start my detailing business
I would start out by doing some more reading about polishers if you're going to machine polish paint.
Here's a video to watch...
Video: How to pick the right polisher
Also, before you start spending a lot of money or taking any action read through these two articles too...
Brand Yourself, Brand your Forum Nickname and Brand your Business Name
How to choose a name for your detailing business
Read this one too...
A few tips on starting a part-time detailing business
Match your services to your customer
And definitely check out this article written by Dave aka Flannigan...
Small Guide: How to set prices when starting a detailing business - TLC Auto Detail
Do spend more time reading.
The most knowledgeable detailers I know are detailers that hang out of a quality forum like AGO and self-educate themselves.

Re: Looking to start my detailing business
What do you mean by kit? Are you looking at purchaseing a whole business start up kit? I know there are some websites that sell start up kits ex. Detail king or rightlook these kits are a rip off thou. You can use those kits as a guide as to what you need. Autogeek prices are much better and they are a better company to do business with. Be carefull with start up kits because there is a lot of products you will never use. Your best kit would be to get some basic equipment, chemicals and supplies.

^^ Absolutely right...I've looked into Detail King and it's definitely a rip off
Back to the OP...good luck with your business and just read read read here
