I am just wondering what equipment do you mobil and fixed pro detailers use and reccomend????

I am just starting out to go fully mobil and i placed an order for the following

Mytee Light 2 carpet extractor
Porter cable air compressor
Commercial pressure washer with direct drive pump, it features a honda 5.5 engine it is capable of 3 gpm and 2000 psi pump
90 gallon water tank

Is this a good start???? I am still debating if i should order a generator or if i should just use there electricty in the beggining?
 
good move on the extractor,the pressure washer is kind of high on the pressure, you want to rinse the car not blow the paint off !! The tank sounds good too. A Porter Cable 7424 orbital would work great for waxing, and a Black and Decker 3000 variable speed rotory buffer is great for the hard stuff. Don't forget the micro towels !!! The rest should be easy
 
Pickup a genrator. That way when that guy eith the mercedes calls and wants you to detail at his office your ready. Dont get caught with your pants down. :moon: I also use a Toro leaf blower. 210 mph. This will work far beter than your compressor at blowing water out of cracks, mirrors and wheels. EZ Up canopy will be a big help on those sunny and hot days.
 
I think the honda is the best. Ive seen and tryed the other cheep ones and if you are going to use it every day the honda will stand up to any thing. Im not talking about the cheep honda it has to have a good pump on it. Like a Cat pump or an AR pump These pumps are brass and can be rebulit. JMO.
