The Simplest & Most Profitable Ceramic Coating Application | $600/6 Hours
Ceramic coatings do not have to take 24 hours to apply, and while I love perfectionism, in order to build a profitable auto detailing business there are times when a middle ground must be found. Here is the simplest and most profitable ceramic coating application that any detailer can implement without experience to exponentially increase their profitability AND lower the time you are spending working day in and day out!

You easily can make 75k plus if you can market and upsell inflated and useless services like this kid. Just make sure you’re in an affluent region with an available market. This is a VERY value added dependent service, you MUST be able to communicate well and be a good salesman. If you can do that, you’ll have it made. No need for any real “detailing” skill. However, HIGH quality paint correction without F-ing up the paint takes a little skill which can be learned very quickly.

I’m somewhat in the early stages of this same journey myself. And I was simply curious, how has/did the process go for you since you posted this 2 years ago of working full time for yourself in your detailing business?

@timothyskateboards Жыл бұрын

@@thatkckidd.6563 probably not the answer you were looking for, but I don’t detail at all anymore other than my own vehicles. I was detailing Saturday and Sunday (all day) and working my full time job Monday-Friday which is an extremely physically strenuous job. Long story short I got burnt out but that doesn’t mean your experience will be the same as mine. Make plenty of time for yourself and don’t overwork yourself

Everyone commenting "this is not a ceramic coating" what sealant do you know of that lasts up to 18 months? Thought so. This is a branch for detailers to get into.. For the customers that don't want to pay over a grand, starting, for a 3+ year coating. And anyone commenting that for $600 you'd apply a traditional glass bottle ceramic coating, well I'm sure your work speaks for itself or you truly aren't charging enough. Luke, thank you for making more and more content for detailers that want to be profitable and make a living. You help us tremendously. Would never have thought of this. So much detailing industry stigma and BS.. don't let the haters get to you

That's because the value of their time is $0. If they're earning 50,000 per day/week/month do you think that person would waste their time applying a ceramic coating? The answer is no, and the person only quoting the price of the ceramic simply isn't worth your time

Great Video Luke! In response to your iron remover idea, i have a different point of view. If you use the iron remover before, you make it easier for the clay bar to pike up contaminants as well as the chemical loosening the particles. I just think that since clay bars aren't the cheapest things in the world, putting less stuff in the clay will make it last longer. We all have opinions and if it works for you then keep doing it as you have been super successful. Once again, great video!

I 100% agree it makes sense to capture the market segment you are targeting with this. It provides grest value and results to the customer with a $600 budget. I don't like calling it a ceramic coating, it dilutes the coating industry. A ceramic spray sealant or ceramic based sealant is better terminology in my opinion. Keep in mind, for long term protection, you are putting your own reputation behind the products you install.

his argument is non-existent.
