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.

DI water is a game changer, but panel by panel is the alternative

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. 🤣

I think my favorite is the canopy. I am in South Florida and never see anyone use one. I detail out of my garage, but the washing and interior blowing, vacuuming etc. occurs outside. I just detail in the garage. I still need the canopy. My driveway has an eastern exposure. I think the canopy is essential. Great advice bro. Thank you for the post.

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.

I split it into sections one at a time.. roof & windshield, hood &front end, driver side, passenger side, then the rear.

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

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.

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

I just bought a lot of distilled water from Walmart and used it with a suction hose from my pressure washer.

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

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.

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?

Great information keep up the good work.

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

@9:33

What soap you Takee for the outside in the sun

My soap doesn't let me get water stains.

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!

How much is a di water tank

Whats the size of the canopy shown in the video bro?

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?

Where is your company located?

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?

👽

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

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

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 ?

Where are you located?
