Would you be willing to make a video on carpet floor/upholstery seats detailing? Started about a month ago and I’m super picky about getting every bit of dirt vacuumed and spot shampooed, but I’m spending an insane amount of time doing it. Not sure what I’m doing wrong or could do better, or if I’m just trying too hard. It’s really frustrating and holding me back trying new products, air hose, massage gun to vibrate out more dirt, more water, less water, worried about vacuum/shampooer strength, etc.

I'll be more than happy to make a video. It might be a long one, because there are several shampoo methods and efficiency tips to share. Stay tuned and I'll make it for you. The next video will be on how to use only Rinseless wash to prep for a ceramic coating, and then I'll put your suggestion next. The hurricane on the east coast has delayed filming, so I'll make them asap.

I've had customers in the mining industry say to me just clean it, decontaminate it and apply a coating for us. I was happy to do that for them and not worry about a few swirls. There is a time and place. 1993-2023 I did detailing and have seen alot of change, ego, bullshit, lies and more. PS dont buy any bucket based soap washing/decon systems, that's obsolete and a waste of time but companies love selling buckets because their a high profit item.

I can do a video about dry and wet sanding, but honestly I love the content Jason Rose has put on KZfaq about the 2 types of sanding. I believe he explains it better than myself. If you'd like links to those videos I can find them, or if you want me to make a video I'll be happy to add it to my list. As long as you're eager to learn and have the mindset that every day is a learning day, I'd never call someone a broke detailer. That's someone that's eager to grow themselves personally and professionally. The keyboard warriors that act as if they can't be taught anything new, those are the ones I refer to as broke detailers lol. Always be hungry for information and strive to be a better person than yesterday! Cheers 🍻

Great points. I’m learning very quickly that I can be just as/even more effective using rinseless wash, an APC, and maybe 1-2 other chemicals. When first starting out - I was so gung ho about having a specific chemical for every surface, surface type, etc. microfiber towels, sprayers, pumps sprayers, etc. It’s all for personal enjoyment, rather than an efficient business strategy. Now, I use much less. It’s less “fun” but the simplicity makes the process more efficient, which makes it fun in its own way.
@ocdetailingnc23 күн бұрын
You said it best 💯 a Rinseless and a concentrated APC that you can dilute to your needs will honestly replace about 8 products in the lineup. Rinseless, APC, Spray Protection, and Tire Dressing is about all that's needed. It's fun to try new products and occasionally break out the foam cannon, but I reserve that for weekend cleanings on my personal vehicles. When it comes to business my focus is staying as profitable as I can while delivering quality work. Thank you for watching!

The ego advice was very deep to where your wisdom extends beyond just detailing. We are obsessed with our own work and may have our own judgements, but when the customer is completely ecstatic with the same results you were so hung up on, you will humble yourself. Great feeling when the two are combined, but shifting your perspective to the bigger picture (what the customer sees) is likely a healthy practice. Take heed in the balance of the two for that defines your own expectations!! Excellent video, thank you for sharing!

I agree that everyone should understand basic solution ratios. But the reality is that most consumers don't. Manufacturers can't assume everyone understands them. A lot of customers don't like products they have to dilute because they either don't understand dilution ratios, or they simply don't want to mix. So they prefer RTU type of products. If everyone understood dilution ratios, why aren't the chemicals being sold concentrate to consumers in the auto stores? Maybe I didn't explain that thorough enough. Nothing "anti-intellectual" was in the video. I'm just explaining why the industry is the way it is, and hoping to help people save money and not be victim to the industry's marketing strategies to take your money.
