Just wondering if you could combine the 2 and by that I mean using a microfiber towel to wash a panel, nanoskin to remove contaniments and then dry panel.

I'm a mobile detailer which I never had this issue until now. I have come across a couple of used car dealers who wish to acquire my services but I'm not allowed to do it on premise. They don't have a plate that I can use and I've been searching online trying to find the answer. From the...

Those who are experienced in production detailing. How long does it take to detail exterior? Interior? Are you using AIO or glaze/wax? What are you doing/not doing in interior? Also does anyone know the rate per vehicle in northeast?

This is a little something I did a few months back. I hope you love the results as much as I do. This also made me a big fan of HD Nitro Seal. I feel like it doesn't get enough love on this site.

Received a call from a woman yesterday for an interior detail. She spilled milk in front passenger seat about 5 days prior and tried cleaning with ammonia, vinegar and towels but car has a fowl smell. I went to her apartment complex this morning and my helper started vacuuming the back where...

I was given a great opportunity to do some fleet wash work. I use the optima steamer and will be experimenting more with it in this fashion of work. Trying to stay eco-friendly I was wondering if I can use ONR as a presoak and blast off with wet steam without having to do heavy drying in order...

What products are you guys using with these pads?

With so many large dealerships having their own on-site detailing it's hard to get your foot in the door. But one thing I have noticed in the last few months is a couple of them are constantly posting help wanted detailer ads every few weeks. My question is as an approach, what would be the...

From what I know there is white and yellow carnauba wax. Does either one work particularly well with dark or light colored cares? Cars with a metallic flake? Also I've drooled over youtube vids of high end car detailers showing their process on six figure cars. When applying wax, they do it...

A new client of mine has a 1982 Cadillac Fleetwood. This car is all original everything and is garaged kept and covered. It only comes out when he brings it to local car shows. From what I saw the paint is in great shape and has layers upon layers of wax and is butter smooth. I will be doing...

So for the last couple of months I have been creeping on the forums seeing what other details are doing on the business side of things. I've been researching marketing, rigs, services, pricing, insurance, etc. After some minor setbacks, I have officially launched Gloss Boss: Eco-friendly steam...
