DI water is a game changer, but panel by panel is the alternative
Heat is where rinseless is your best buddy. Use rinseless as a pretreat and after you rinse it off spray the car down with rinseless again. The polymers are going to keep the minerals from sticking to the paint. They go panel by panel pretreating each panel at a time. When you put fresh rinseless on the panel the polymer spots and minerals absorb into the new rinseless so you can wipe them away. I love rinseless so much.
This comment is the key here in Florida!!! Perfectly stated bro!!
@@gogators5762 Go Gators!
so rinse with water, use rinseless then dry with rinseless?

1. Spray car with rinseless
2. Pre rinse car
3. Repsray car with rinsless
4. Go panel per panel with contact wash spraying rinsless on the panel if it is dry before you use your wash media.
No spots.
What I usually do is just pre rinse the car and go straight to a rinse less like onr 64:1 as a pre treat, pull the car into the garage of I have the option, and do a full rinse less at regular 256:1 bucket dilution then finish with another quick hit of 64:1 to help with drying. Either mothod totally works!
Another thing that I have implemented, which is common sense to be honest… But sometimes we implement a system, but that system can always be executed so when I have an early detail, I like to do the wash as soon as I get there when the sun is not fully out and then I’ll take care of the vacuum afterwards and then if I have a late detail, I’ll take care of the vacuum first and then I’ll proceed to the wash once the sun has came down a little bit just simple tips for the new detailers as myself🙌🏽
You haven't lived until you spend a summer detailing in the Deep South. 🤣
That 100 degree weather coming
Man f that I went to GA a few years ago stepped out the car and got immediate headache ......
@@user-so2rh9om6y lol, it's good right now but won't be for long
How about 115°+ here in Phoenix

I can fit basically everything I need in my sedan, air compressor, sunjoe pressure washer, all the drills towels etc, buch of chemicals(1l bottles to save space), 3 step stair and A stand, you name it , I could probably fit canopy as well but I dont want to fuck with unfolding it alone
Great information keep up the good work.
We use the customers water (regular garden hose high ppm) for the wash, then for the final rinse we connect to our 65 gallon tank that carries only DI water.
Now that I'm MUCH older now (57) that when I started detailing (17), your words are almost like "DUH!!!" I USED to be able to power through almost anything, but like you said, you AND the ***quality of your work*** suffers as the day goes by. I don't do this for a living, but occasionally I will detail a friend/relative's car for a few bucks. I will now ONLY detail ONE car a day (or over 2 days), that way I CAN take breaks between processes. The quality of my work stays high, but more importantly - NO BURNOUT!! Fortunately, with age, comes experience & knowledge, so I can get better results now, with fewer steps and less concentrated effort than I did when I was 17, and I can take breaks when needed, or "just I want to stop for a few minutes," and not lose time detailing that I had to have before in order to get high quality results.
40 years of detailing is awesome, it probably breaks your heart that it’s extremely saturated as of recent. nevertheless if you are a great business owner and marketer you’ll be sure to keep finding success.
I split it into sections one at a time.. roof & windshield, hood &front end, driver side, passenger side, then the rear.
I also do that tech more often than not
I just bought a lot of distilled water from Walmart and used it with a suction hose from my pressure washer.
If you get sidewalls make sure to have AT LEAST 20lbs on each leg. If you get a huge gust of wind those walls will act as a sail and lift up the canopy before you even have a chance to hold it down.
Ask me how I know
😂
How tall is the tent you're using in this vid? I'm asking 'cause I have no other places to go outside my garage. No or buildings to hide from the sun.
Thanks for informative vids!
In summer is skip the iron remover step. It instantly dries. Nothing happens to the paint while polishing because you skipped one step. Summer months can be brutal for detailers.
Sometimes in the heat, if the car not too dirty, Ill just do a rinseless wash. Wash and dry 1 panel at a time. I have more control over the panel drying out that way.. Ill Spray my wash on the panel for extra lubrication and right away wash it down and dry it. For the wheels and tires, i clean them as I would normally clean them though
WHAT REALLY HELPS ME WITH THE HARDWATER SPOTS IS DISTILLED WATER I SPRAY IT ON AFTERR I have rinsed it off with regualr water it heps me great
Whats the size of the canopy shown in the video bro?
I heard if you put 2-3 capfuls of rinseless wash to your regular car soap and hard water wash bucket it will help with water spots? Is there any truth to that?
I heard the same.
2-3 capfuls of rinseless is what's needed for a regular bucket of rinseless wash, so I'd just use a good rinseless, ik DIYdetail is a great one, probably slightly better than mckees. And mckees is preferred by most over optimal no rinse, ONR, bc it doesn't have any filling polymers like ONR does. The filling polymers are a bad idea when using rinseless diluted to a clay lubricant or a drying aid
@@dansanders340 thanks for the insight.

How much is a di water tank
I've been running my tank with out DI water for the past 4 years , each year went by it felt like water spots would be more visible but never etching , now i can't ignore it anymore its pretty bad, idk if its my water or my tank might be dirty, do y'all ever clean inside your tank ? also what DI system were you using and how many gallons would you get out of it?
You gotta replace the filter substrate my dude
I’m going to copy a system but it’s going to cost me around 700 dollars
@@datguy4104 the substrate in what filter?
@@glyndonsprofessionaldetail7429 Mb I misread that. I read that as "with", not "without".
My soap doesn't let me get water stains.
@9:33
when i saw that i was like "relatable" 😂😅
Have you ever had issues when a customer wants their car done at their employer parking lot and their boss doesn’t want you there?
lol.
I struggle washing in sun to this day and what helps is filtered water , use distilled water jug to fill foam cannon and wash/rinse in sections front, back, each side etc. only wash begining or end of day avoid peak heat good tips Oscar 👍 how would you recommend doing a iron removal in sunlight is it not doable ?
👽
I can’t justify putting all DI water into my tank. Even if I only use 15-20 gallons on a wash it’s still almost $10 in just DI water cutting into my profits. I’m trying to figure out a small bypass system to send water through the filter only when necessary
20 cents a gallon so 4 bucks to get 20 gallons. Take about 7 gallons or less to wash a car maki that $1.33 per car. It's a good deal to me, better results and not having to worry about water spots
so raise your prices 10 dollars duh
My resin filter gives me 1,000 gallons of 0 TDS water for $60.
Just detail at 5am or 10pm ez
lol just use rinseless wash instead of deionized water, even just set up a popup tent (1minute work). Man these 'professional' youtube detailers really need to up their game/knowledge, feels like watching amateur hour sometimes
So use common sense… what a waste of time
Bro liked his own comment
