What do you do differently in your process?
I dry the vehicles with opti seal after using ONR and finish with the spray wax for that extra step by hand , i like how your guys use the machine to prep the paint. If the customer is watching it definitely adds that extra mystique to the service.
If no polishing I'd just clay mitt with beadmaker or similar and skip paint prep and orbital wax, save a ton of time same result imo. Why are sticking with liquid wax?
So you're using a liquid wax.. can I just use the same wax that's already included in the shampoo is that considered a wash and wax.. also can you elaborate on how cold it is for your and your employees fingers in the hands washing in these cold weathers.. I'm in California and in the morning around 8:00 a.m. 9:00 a.m. it's still 50° or 45° weather and my hands freeze .
@@steveo6685 it’s all about what customers you have and the money they have
@@steveo6685 we don't want customers like you who aren't willing to pay the price anyways, so it works out 😀
So clean love your operation and the mantra when something stops something else is starting. Glad the Blowerband nozzle guards are working out!
Starting literally from the bottom/ground zero . Thanks for all the info. As always
Awesome video. Do you guys use any iron remover in this process?
Nice work great job and team work
I appreciate your time to show us how
Looks like a great system you have going on there👍
great content. Question, do you let the sealant cure for a period of time?
Hello great video. When I watched this video I was thinking what about a process for big trucks that have all types of dirt and grime stuck to the paint and wheels.
You should create your own products. I love the page, haven’t stopped watching for a week now. I’d Definitely support!
You da man!! Where do you live and did winter time slow you down before you had a shop? sorry if oyu have a video on this
Detailed looks FRSH ‼️😁👌🏼💯
Thanks mayne!
Any ideas on how to communicate to customers about claybarrying but not iron removing? I know its up to customers but an idea on how to communicate that part to them would be helpful thanks!
Finally someone who doesn't use the two bucket method with one mit. Multiple clothes folded and discarded is the best way to keep from scratching the paint. Go hard or go home!
I know this is a exterior clean but on the interior have y’all used whip it cleaner for stains and general purpose cleaner?
These are really good I have some questions to ask
What kind of wash towels are you using? Great vids
Great job
What did you use as a clay lubricant? Did you add anything to the plastic trim of the car?? Great work!
Hyper dressing I think
Where did you get the stubby tip for the ego?
What kind of wax do u use? What kind of drying towel do u use?
What clay lubricant did you use in the sprayer? Just detail spray?
Wish you lived closer, I bought a 2018 honda accord touring and with it being a black car, you can see all the imperfections, including swirl marks and scratches.
Those are the worse :(
Sweet car tho!
@@DetailGroove Tell me about it, and I have OCD so I constantly clean her but I feel I'm not doing a top notch job.
Find a closer detailer where you live you will be surprised
What kind of wash towels do you use?
When cleaning the tires do you actually move the car to clean the bottom of the tires?
5:10 what do you use to touch up your wheels?
What is the blue mit used for, the one before drying?
What the polisher used on paint prep cordless?
What is the paint prep?
Where did u buy your spray foam cannon
What are the blue gloves you are using?
What does paint prep mean?
I see you guys were using Jecar ceramic sealant. How would you summarize that product? And is it sun friendly?
I salute you for making this actually your 9:00 to 5:00 main source of income. As for me I just stick to weekend work because I still haven't found the flow of income and I like to do other things as well... Are you still going to construction criticize websites
No interior?
Aye man huge question. Do I need to bring a source of water with me or is it ok if I hook my mobile pressure washer up to someone’s hose? So far I’ve had no issues but I feel like it’s unprofessional? What are your thoughts?
Brother it’s not unprofessional. If you act and talk and appear professional literally nobody will give a fuck. When you get more customers, make more money and feel comfortable making bigger purchases. Then you do that. You go at your pace. Go get it brother!!
One woman crew 🙂💪
Ayeee, that's awesome 🚀
how much minutes after do you have to wait after the sealant is on or do you just apply the wax right after
The “wax” is the sealant
I have a question for you, the price is $ 270 only for the wash an wax or it also includes the aspirated inside… ?
lol yes his prices are up there but people pay it in his area, his system works
This is just for the exterior
@@DetailGroove Thank you so much, have a great day and I really like your video
Are you still using a turbo nozzle on the wheels and tires?
He has said in another video, they still keep one in the van. and it’s up to the worker if they need it or not.
Where do you get a ladder like that??
Home Depot!
you don't show the part where you clayed, or describe it.
So he was applying the wax with the buffer? Or prepping the car for wax with the buffer?
Just waxing
@@NickVetter gotcha! Awesome thanks!👍🏽
Dang my knees started hurting watching that first guy wash those tires 😰
IKR🤧 Using the same brush from the tires on the wheels, and putting the brushes in the floor
Same here.
Question, is it okay to use the customers water and electricity?
Absolutely!!
Yes most costumers don’t mind
I would discuss it first but yes it’s totally acceptable
I have never had a problem with it.
i do all the time until i have my own electric and water supply. just ask if you can have access to a water supply and outlet. thats it
Where can i get that ladder bench
Home Depot and Lowe's sell them.
What would I charge as a 13 year old only doing a pre rinse with pressure washer, hand wash, and hand dry.
$50
How much was that step stool?
I think around $135 at Lowes
Dang. That's what I normally charge for interior and exterior.
Change up the pricing 🚀
@@DetailGroove Too much competition in the area, some people charging as little as 100 for inside and out details. This is just a side gig for me - who knows though that could change in the future...
So if you work 8 hours you get 4 cars done (on a good day) with 3 guys. You make over 1k a day, probably pay your guys around 150 a day, so you pocket 700 a day minus product. So you make like around 400 a day? 6 days a week that's 2400/week. You can clear at least 7-8k a month I'm guessing?
That is crazy I can only charge $45 for essentially the same thing. The only difference is I just use spray sealant and no polish work but I spend the same time and do everything else the same and cannot get anybody for exterior I barely get people but I also am in Indianapolis, IN
yeah and if i charge a little bit more people bitch and wanna haggle the price, dont wanna pay
It depends on what state you live in, among a few other things, but in Arizona, this would cost $500 at a lot of companies. Having employees definitely helps with the time. I’m just one girl so this’ll take up a whole day for me, but that may be because I want everything to be perfect and can get into that “ocd” point.
@@tillmandetailing same I spend a lot of time going over the little imperfections but also you gotta give what you are getting paid for. That’s is crazy about the 500 though might need to move this detailing thing to another state!
@@MahendraSingh-rp6er lmao yes seriously
Nice detailing video but it was a crappy Honda 😂. Transmission and electrical issues.
When did you start using the cordless polisher?
When we start applying the wax!
you didnt explain in detail how to wax a car but cool video
The foam is supposed to be a prewash.....
Which one dries better - The ego or the big boi?
?
@@maxmasify he also has the big boi car blower dryer. So I’m interested in understanding if the ego dries better than the big boi or vice versa. Or if it doesn’t matter… more personal preference (cordless vs. corded).
@@RL-ju9ye 👍
Why should you clay before waxing, doesn't the clay cause marring? And wax won't remove that. (Asking a genuine question not hating)
Would appreciate some feedback as I'm learning too.
Surface contaminants don’t allow for the wax to fully bond with the surface so Clay bar helps that bond while also getting rid of the sand paper feeling. People love to feel that paint too when their car is waxed so that’s another thing. The marring is only really going to be noticeable when you are using a clay bar. Clay mitts like they were using tend to leave a lot less marring.
Yes, it does, but not every customer cares about that. You really have to communicate and understand what your customers wants
@@DetailGroove okay thanks for your response
We do the exact same process and get it done with 1 guy in the exact same time, most of the time even quicker. You're not being more efficient, you're just wasting a ridiculous amount of money on labor for no reason.
Haha, right on my dude
Lol
Okay show us the improvements @dino
Yeah and I bet he doesn't have complaining employees being over worked.
@@jorgeherrera2598it shouldn’t take more than 45 minutes to wash a car for 1 man. Wax is 45-60 minutes. 1 man 2 hrs max.
Why do you use DI water and not tell people that LMFAOOOO?
huh?:
4 time a year 😅 for 30.000 dollars car
Firsttt!!!
What did you use as a clay lubricant? Did you add anything to the plastic trim of the car?? Great work!
optimum no rinse at the proper dilution is what I use 👍
