Question on daily driver / customer

njcarting1

Dewey,Cheatem & Howe ESQ.
I have a daily driver vehicle to wash wax and clean.The question is what process should I use to clean the black minivan.The problem is it will not be taken care of wash wise other than run through a mechanical car wash for regular cleaning after I am done.

It has some regular swirls,and winter rash from not caring for the paint as most would do here.I guess what I am asking is,what is the SHORT easy route for me to take.It is not a signed autograph like it would be for a detail shop trying to build up customers.Its a fleet vehicle that I want looking good for daily driving.I know that a wax job will not be done by the owner after its completed.WILL SOME BLK HOLE AND A SEALER COVER MOST OF THE STUFF AND GET THE JOB DONE? Again I do not want to spend 6-8 hrs on the job.Like I said before the owner will not care for the outside with hand washes or waxing after.

BLACK,BLACK,BLACK,THIS IS A NEVERENDING BATTLE.

I would wash it, use Polish w/ Sealant (All in One product) and then throw some Black Hole and Natty's Blue ... or you could just do the PwS and stop there :cool:

An AIO is the best approach to take. Quick, easy and does a decent job. Adding a top coat of a pure sealant will help the protection last longer.
 
All of the above is good advice. I'm not sure where or how you are taking this detailing thing, full-time, part-time/sideline, or just helping out a friend. If this is a paying gig, you might want to brush up on the salesman aspect of the business and find out what the owner's expectations are and what "program" they are willing to afford. Even though they won't be taking care of their daily driver going forward, that is where you and your services come in. I suspect I know the answer when you say you don't want to spend 6-8 hours on the job, but would you if you were being paid?
