Several years back I made a post(see link below) in regards to having my own professional car cleaning chemical line and training school. After years of saving and determination, this idea came to life last year. I have recently launched my very own professional car care line and supply a large...

I have been in the detailing business for over 10 years now, and have ran my small detailing company for about 6 years. I started this business up as a part time gig while i was obtaining a BA degree. I have come to the point where i am very interested in teaching others what i have learned, in...

A friend of mine recently approached me looking for some work, and i said i could help you out. While i have a few weeks of mobile detailing work booked, i felt that i could finish the jobs quicker. I usually only do one detail a day and maybe a wash or something else that is nothing major and...

Long story cut short from my previous post. Been detailing about 10 years, owned my own business and was self employed all throughout college as i graduated with my BA degree. Got a job at a jail about 45 minutes away making 17 bucks per hour, but don't enjoy it. I have a great clientele base...

I have been a mobile detailer for 4 years now, and everything has been working out great, except i got myself into a small bind. I have 10 years experience in car detailing, started since i was 16 and still going strong. While going through college, customers were patient for me to get to their...

I havent posted in a while because my business is really going strong. My customers really like he durability of the sealant i currently use on the cars, but it is giving me to many problems.

I got a call from a customer requesting a full detail on her black newer bmw. Im about 2 hours away from her, so the cost effective scheme comes into effect here. Anyone in this area that can take on this easy job? It is more towards southern NJ i believe.

This week in the northeast pa the weather is not going my way so well. Heres the problem. I have a appt for tommorow and there is a 40-50 percent chance of showers all day. The appt takes about 45 minutes to get to, and i dont want to go and then have it rain. The previous appt last week I got...
