I have about 8-people, that I wash there cars regularly, two to three times monthly, and I make about 1400extra monthly, is not bad, but I’m trying to get more people, the people cars I wash, live in my neighborhood!!!

Thanks fro another informative video Luke. Extremely relevant since your last encouraging contact. FYI I did one detail of my rehab clinician’s car and I’ve now booked another 4 clients each wanting multiple cars fully detailed and then maintained. All your advice is now going to be put into practice aa I build my reputation, but as this is my ‘retire to’ plan I’m at capacity in 2 weeks!!!! Crazy

Great video but was hoping to see what all you do in the interior for a maintenance cleaning, that is where I struggle and take WAY too long. Quick question....that wheel well dressing you used is a interior dressing, seems like it wouldnt last long in the wheel wellsl. Is there a reason to not just use tire shine in the wheel wells? I've been trying to figure out something good yet very economical to use in the wheel wells to make them look nice. (The stuff you used in this video is no longer available)

The cars paint was already in good condition. There looks to be no reason for a polish. You don't have to always polish after a clay bar if the paint doesn't need it. Wax, yes. He just used the ceramic protectant instead of a traditional wax. Looks good to me.
