What are your tips to washing in the sun? Let us know!

I usually wash until I pass out then once I wake up I pick up from where I left off

I usually just fly and move the sun over to the other side of the world until I finish my detail then just bring it back when I’m done

In the heat I keep a gatorade cooler,with ice and water. I throw a couple poweraids and a beer for when my day is done. It goes a long way

Hello guys!!! If you guys have trouble washing in the sun!! Try turtle wax and dry product It literally helps out with water spots while drying in the sun! And it’s cheap!!!!! Hopefully this helps anyone outhere if you can’t afford a di system! I live here in Texas and it’s damm hott!!

Oklahoma based mobile detailer here. I’m just starting out so DI water is out of my realm of affordability. Instead I use a 10x10 folding canopy combined with an in-line RV Water Filter to get the closest result. Still going panel by panel of course. Not the best or quickest solution, but it’s cheap and affordable for beginners trying to start up this summer 👍🏻 Great video!

I use inline water RV filter, rinse aide (Superior product Formula 4) dilute 10:1 Spray on after rinse. A pinch of sea salt in your water bottle helps with dehydration. Sun screen may have to try. Thanks Oscar for the awesome tips😊

Some great tips here in this video. I bail to my truck and blast the AC for 5 mins when I get too hot to get my temperature down. Not as hot where I am in Florida, (only) 90 yesterday, but the humidity sucks the life out of you. Water, Gatorade, snacks, canopy, AC, the right clothing, all vital to stay healthy.

Keep glass cool. Hot glass will streak whatever you use to clean it. The chemical/catalyst will flash too fast and it’ll all leave streaks. When I’m having to clean glass that’s really hot, I just use carnauba wax. If I’m not gonna wax it, I use a waffle weave with some diluted spray wax. In a pinch, water or IPA/water equal mix and a black/white newspaper works wonders as well.

Also if you have a buddy/coworker and what not knock out one side washing it together and as you move on to next panel/side they dry that side of the vehicle as you keep progressing so and and so forth working around the vehicle 🙏🏻

Wake up at 7 AM to wash it 🤦🏽‍♂️ just so around 8:30 it’s already 95

I live in las vegas in the summer time it gets from 100* to 110* F there's been two tips I've found that have helped me when cleaning cars when it gets that hot one get DI water when you put water on your car it drys so fast when it gets that hot so this helps ease the mind knowing I won't be putting any hard water on the customers car the 2nd tip is not doing the hole car at the same time but go section by section i treat the roof the front and side glasses and trunk glass as one section the hood and grill section as another the bottom sides bellow the glass left and right as another then the bottom trunk as another section get those sections to the point where there almost completely dry or ready to be dry before starting on another section it may take a little longer but that's fine at least its gonna come out clean

Dri-Fit long sleeves fishing shirts do a few tricks. Long sleeves keeps you from dipping sweat everywhere and keeps the sun off your skin and I know some fishing shirts specifically can reduce UV rays and the dri-fit material will help keep you cooler than cotton.

I work solo no help and right now is 98 100 degrees sometimes I wash with two bucket method cus I can’t foam and wash before the soap is dry so is hard man, i wish I could keep going I love it and my customer are very happy with my work but is getting hard for me need more customer to be able to go full time I am 50 now I just want to throw the towel. Is frustrating people want everything for the same price. Sorry! I have been in the sun thirty and hungry for 8 hrs, you have been such a great help this couple years thank you and good luck amigo.

I recently bought the DI pro 100 from rv mods, Luke Wilson did a video on it and I love it!

I use filter water and in sections. I use a spray bottle with soap and water, rinsing frequently.

Bro this AZ heat ain't no joke and the water is so hard that it makes it impossible to detail....I definitely need to invest on a DI

Arsenal Auto Detail, is my mobile business here in New Mexico. EVERYTHING you talked about was spot on brother. Hydration should always be at the top of your priorities.

God bless you brother. Over here i have everything i could dream of as a mobile detailer and even an inflatable garage that i had customized with my logo. The downfall over here in New Jersey is that nobody wants to work. Im finding as a mobile detailer that it is the hardest thing to find reliable workers. I can't put up a 12x15 tent by myself so i have been in direct sunlight and i think i am burnt out lol

In the summer I just wash my car in the dark works for me and if the neighbors don't like it well I don't give a shit 🙂

Here I go, vegas 117F direct sun baby !

Keep it up gents! I learn a ton from yall and I really appreciate it! Love & Respect from Vancouver Canada!

Actually its better to use di water with chemicals because theres metals and minerals that can change how a chemical acts. Thats why they recommend to usually dilute with di or distilled water

Appreciate all of your tried and true tricks of the trade. Thinking about purchasing a canopy and was wondering the brand and model you use . Does it take 2 people to raise it? Is it necessary to use sand bags to keep it grounded? Thanks again for sharing your detail knowledge with everyone.

would love to see a video on the water setup and filling up the tank. My guys drive to our local water company every other day and fill up with DI water.

Today I was working with the sun hitting on me crazyyyy.

Dude you look like a high school major, this is a compliment what u use to keep looking very young

Have a very good canopy by Dave Christian With Attachable walls pullt the Car,SUV,Truck Under and go HAM

Excellent topic. Phoenix will top out at 108 tomorrow.

I wash the vehicle first with normal water and the last stage I do is just wash with spotless water in that way I don't waste it as in London you need to pay to fill up your tank.

bruh texas weather aint nothing compared to Arizona, that weather is cool for us lol

I am in west texas we have dry heat here. I have to wash car panel by panel because it drys so fast. Yesterday was 108F here.

It’s a good thing you have 2 chalanes bro imagine if you were by yourself no mames

Me and my wife did interior details this winter (in Utah) it was so cold most days if you tried spraying chemicals on the plastic it would freeze before we could wipe it

Video on extractor reel please.!!!!🙏🙏👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

When you have to pee pee, 💦 just close all the doors on the van and then just open them when you are finished, it’s not worth holding your self 🤫

I’ve heard if the windshield gets to hot and water gets on it it can crack, is this true? How can I avoid this from happening?

Thank you my friend. Great advice.

Took me a while to get out of youtube brain and realize sometimes; you just can’t do iron remover on cars that have been baking outside all day by the time you get to it. Even rinsing it down and trying cool the panels is pointless...it’s not your fault the customer can’t provide shade, just gotta work around it!! You always wanna do 1000% great work but it only takes so many chemical stains to convince you otherwise! DI water is a must...

What's a hot weather to not wash a car?? 80F? 85F? 90F?

Thank you

In Laredo Texas you will burn burn burn and customers are cheap AF lol 😂

Gets 112 here in west Texas

What pressure washer hose is that?

Drift is a must lol!

Would you do this same process for a lifted truck ?

Why are you drying the car? Cant you just let the car flash dry and start putting your tools away or start the interior? It would take like 5 minutes in the summer heat to dry. No water spots would be left due to DEI water. Could you explain, please? Am I missing something?

Don’t forget to bring an extra shirt lol

Thank god I have a carport for detailing

Bro Remember us to leave the like😂🙌🏼
