Luke, thanks for the great information. I’ve been detailing for about 20 years now and I have learned quite a bit from you. In the kindest way possible I’d like to give you a tip since I’ve gotten so many from you. Don’t forget to take the license plate off the back of the car, the paint behind the plate needs love too. Thanks again for all the valuable info, I’ll continue to watch AND like your videos...keep them coming.
I've busted two members of my competition for the license plate thing. I remove the plate every time, without fail. If I have to break the screws to get the plates off I don't care...I replace them. I'm set up for that sort of thing.
this man is ledgend, this video was probably sooo hard to make, its such a long vid yet the quality was a 10 the whole time. getting right angles for us, switching batteries, so much, thanks g
As a 43yo detailer whose been detailing for over a decade, please do me a favor... Please get yourself a couple IK sprayers for your brake buster and APC. Not only will it save you time on every detail, but it'll save your fingers all dang day. Great video man, loving this informative content.
Haha I've got some pump sprayers I love using and yes you're right, it definitely saves a lot of time, but I believe they were full of something else when I was getting this done
Absolutely best car detailing channel for beginners and experts! Your the ONLY one that puts there price out there with no secrets. Love u bro, you have helped me price my first 2 step correction.
Awesome video my friend. I want to thank you for all the incredibly helpful information. I'm a 20 year automotive refinishing technician and I'm just starting my detailing business. That being said, your videos have helped so much and I just can't thank you enough...Great work!!
Your content has literally grown with me. I've learned how to be more efficient when I needed it and now how to be more profitable thanks to the new format.
First time I seen someone detail the exact color and Audi SUV I own 🥰♥️ We haven't had ceramic coating on it yet, but my paint looks like when we left the showroom 🤩 My SUV sits in the sun as well, but we wash it weekly and use a spray wax every wash and or polish it once a month or so. My interior still smell new and its a 2018. When I take it in to maintenance, the service writer says my car is in brand new condition. I have 3 sons and they make sure their shoes are dusted off before entering my car and we don't eat in our car either, only water or non staining drinks lol 😆 👌 Nice work 👏
Great job!!! Exactly thats what that type of job cost, minimum $1000 bucks. I used to do same job youre doing for $11 dollar per hour, except ceramic coating. Wash 80 cars in 10 to 12 hours. And not only that .many, many more things, and With out the right to drink water.
Awesome. You Have Added Life To This Vehicle's Genuine Paint, Windshield, Headlights And Aluminium Alloys. You And Your Customer Knows The Value And You Knows The Process of Ceramic Coating. Two Thumbs Up. Great Job Manl
Bro you are a work horse! Hope your body can keep up with the demands your profession puts on it! Keep up the great work that Audi looks amazing! Not a fan of the shiny tires though lol.
Mr Wilson is this your still your ceramic coating you use for all your details or do you use a different one. I seen a more recent video you were using a different product what’s your best one?
Hi Wilson, everything ok? I have one think in my mind, to try in my vehicle the CERAMIC aplication and after, do the WAX coating. It is the best of the best creation or it doesnt make any diference after the Ceramic?
Hi Luke, I don't know how to contact you other than to just comment, Have you ever used or reviewed Armor Shield IX Nano Ceramic Coating? I am in Arizona with extreme heat conditions 100-119 degrees just about daily. You literally only have 30 seconds to remove it or to buff off. P.S. I love your channel and usually glance at it everyday for new videos. I have really upped my game this year I want to thank your channel for that . I must say I can't keep up with all of the chemicals.lol I use basic but have been doing this work for many years. Thanks Luke!
Well done brotha!!! I enjoy watching your videos. I detail on the side. So I enjoy watching and learning i dont have much like you got but eventually I will. I live in Michigan. One day I'll be like u lol god bless bro
How do like this one compared to Avalon King? Getting ready to pull the trigger, help me out. My first coating will be the last coat black ice and the this one or avalon king
My local dealership def doesn't give a crap if it is ceramic coated on a trade in. Im pretty sure they would laugh in your face for asking. You get the KBB rough value on a like new car and they say "thats the market".
Hi Luke, chalk up another 'sweet' lesson; this being on prep staging prior to ceramic coating followed by the actual ceramic coat. Now I know you did the entire detail in 10 hours, what is the cure time on the ceramic coating? Most are either 24-48 hours. Do you advise the owner to garage the car when they pick it up? Great job, as always!!!
Yes perfect to cure in the garage ✊I have a few customers who want me to go through all the work and they want to Keep it outside 🤷🏼♂️I warn them about the consequences of not letting it stay garaged. The best place for it and the products are backed by doing it and curing it the proper way 💎🇺🇸
my detailer returned me the car after the cure was done inside his shop, not before. Understand he is not a mobile one, of course. And his advise was, put it outside your garage in direct sunlight to make it shine more during the first week. The cure stage it's important.
I have never ceramic i bought a bottle but i really dont no what direct to go to apply it. Was gone buy a junk yard hood in a good condition and try it half way. What you think i should do?
hi mate, so 1000 dollars it's just for the washing and paint correction of the outside right ? here in france i'm asking 950€ for outside and inside. I wonder if my price is not to low...
Scott from Dallas paint correction says its better to use the iron remove before even rinsing/foaming since the water will dilute the product. Any thoughts on that?
Is the 272 just as easy as the zr53 for beginners on ceramic. Which would you prefer for mobile detailing using a garage at a customers house or our personal garage
hey Luke, I like your videos a lot! Great content. I'm thinking about starting ym own detailing business Do you have any content showing the reason behind so many different products and so many processes? In your video, after the first 15 min, the car looks the same after you use more products. I believe they all have their properties and do different stuff to the car, but can you describe that in a video? Thanks a lot!
I live in west TN and there is no way I could get anyone to pay 1k for a ceramic job. I know the Nashville area has people that make more money than west TN but honestly I couldn’t see charging that much personally. I’ve been detailing for 20 years and to each their own I just couldn’t charge that much.
Hey Luke, I have just recently started a mobile detailing business. I’m getting started in ceramics and I have carpros ceramic coating and paint correction. I was wondering if you had any tips on polished, like a good polisher and combination of pads and products to use. There are so many different products to use. I’m wondering if you wouldn’t mind giving me some advice on it! Thank you!
Hopefully it’s not too late but here’s what I’ve had good luck with. A nice polisher you could always get a starter polisher on amazon for $125 it comes with basic pads that will get you going. Then upgrade later on. I really like optimums spray polish. They have a compound, a hyper polish, and a few others. All work well
Menzerna 2500, Meguiars 110, Lake country orange foam pad, Lake country microfiber cutting pad. You can get a lot done with just those products. Also I really like CarPro Essence as a final polish, CarPro Eraser before applying coating.
Lots of good information. It looked like during the ceramic process, you were careful not to apply the coating to the silver window trim. Why? Did the sunroof glass panels, rear hatch and side windows get cleaned only?
Good question, I am following up with this car and putting a ceramic on all the glass, so that is when the chrome and pillars will be done, I avoided it in this case because of the prep Ill do with the glass in the future before application
Wilson Auto Detailing So a follow up question is; when coating glass, the rubber seals get coated as well? I guess it isn’t an issue along the top part of the seal on the side windows, the coating between the rubber and the glass (of where the movement is when you bring the window up/down).
For every one of your maintenance jobs or just regular jobs where you detailing the outside do you also do the inside or is that a separate job you charge extra for?
Quick question for you sir. I noticed you using a pressure washer and regular water hoes. Are you not using your own supply of water and electricity? Is it like this with all your clients? Please let me know.
ive watched dozens of your videos and you've helped me so much! I do want to ask, how would you paint correct a vehicle that has been previously waxed, or had the chemical guys hyper wax applied to it? i tried to remove swirls from my car about a week after applying that product from chemical guys and I couldn't get the swirls out. i know it takes practice but i pressed lightly and softly. is it possible that i sealed the swirls in?
So first off. I am relatively new to ceramics. I have taken 1 weekend and this is now my second real customer that wants one. The first car I had 18 hours into, you don't exactly work that in a single day at full consciousness. This being my second one I am about 20+ hours into correction. I cannot conveniently get these cars back in a day. To make them absolutely perfect for a ceramic they need to be properly corrected. Am I in the wrong for taking this long to give my customers an honest application of a very expensive product?
Thanks for the video. Question: What is a "spider pad", and can you post a link on where to buy them? Also, for that LHR 21 would I need 6" or 7" pads? Thanks!
If you use Ceramic coatings do you need to use Wax too? If no, Can you use Wax with it or would it damage the ceramic coating? I had never heard of ceramic coatings before so this is a first for me and I am trying to start a detail business so I am curious to know how exactly and ceramic work together or interact with each other.
I love your content and you speak complete facts, but sometimes you get a little full of yourself saying “my customers will only choose me i’m the best they only think about me” maybe that is the case, but i’m here for the knowledge not necessarily you being all uppity that you’re the best detailer
I could be wrong, but I don't believe i have said "I'm the best," I believe the conversation is surrounding the fact that the brand I've built in my area at this point causes customers to call me and say 'I don't want anyone else to detail my car, do you have time?" Hopefully you can hear what Im saying and not what Im not saying
Wilson Auto Detailing I gotcha. No hate at all - sometimes just comes off a little harsh to the guys who are really just in their first few months trying to get a grasp of everything!
I’ve detailed at a Porsche dealership...I 100% guarantee u don’t make your money back..if the paint isn’t perfect, that’s why they had people like me there.. to pay about 1/4 of that to fix it
I spend three days applying a coating on my personal vehicles. Day 1 wash and Decon, day 2 paint correction, day 3 coating application. To do this all in one day is so tiring and easy to lose focus.
Those aren't the same. They last a couple of months at best. Chicago auto pros did a testing on those if you go to their channel. I've used some in my detailing as a quick coating but it's not the same as applying a ceramic coat or graphine coating.
This was right out of the package. There is kind of a falsehood in the detailing world that goes around sometimes where people say that all towels and wash mitts need to be washed before you use them, don't use them right out of the package. Without going into too much detail.. that is simply not true
Hey Luke. My 10 year old shop vac blb350 is starting to make an electrical grinding sound. I’m definitely sold on Ridgid. I’m looking at the HD1600. I suck up a lot of water so I want the 16 gallon tank. Would you recommend that?
I never heard of that ceramic coating you suggested. Did you ever try Servfaces Suave or Ultima, Nanolex Si3d HD or Si3d Max or Gtechniq Crystal Serum light or Crystal serum ultra? I highly recommend testing them :)
have you ever had issues with your neighbors because of the noise you make ??? especially in a quiet neighborhood ... i have done my car once in my garage with the door open and it took almost 6 loud hours and i think is not the best place to do it as a business. i wouldnt feel confortable doing it on a daily basis. what do you think ??
Not sure what you pay for nasiol zr53 but retail it's 119$. Isn't it more cost effective from cost perspective to use gtechniq crystal serum light at 66$ a pop(super easy to use as well and also durable)?
@@wilsonautodetailing Thanks for the response!! Which microfiber towels do you use for the coatings? Ideally, I'd like to find a quality towel that's cheap.
You've quickly become my favourite Car detailing UA-camr, you're content is so educational rather than just being aesthetically pleasing to watch. Im launching my business as we speak, starting out doing valeting but I want to be a professional detailer! Had my first customer on the weekend and he was very happy with the results!
Incredible! Thanks for the feedback man! I am definitely a lot more passionate about teaching than necessarily making cool videos so that is going to attract some and not others. I think for guys like you who are actually in the business it is probably going to be helpful! Thanks again Dom
I detailed for 10 years at a dealership and unfortunately the couple that I worked at could care less about the appearance of the vehicle when it was traded in. The dealer will not give you $1000 bc it is clean bc they are going to detail it anyway. Great content tho. 👍
I agree having worked at dealerships but you should be able to get that thousand back if you sell it privately, most will pay more if they know it was well taken care of and had a ceramic coat.
I think my point is more this: Like in real estate, the location is going to determine the appraisal value more than anything else, BUT a house that has been renovated recently on the inside is going to peak far more interest for say a first time home buyer than one that is not, and will is many cases drive up the price. That doesn't mean it's going to sell for $20K more than it's worth, but there is absolutely a price tag attached to that. In the same way, a vehicle that is maintained with incredible car is of course more desirable, and that in many ways can cause the same effect when selling
Definitely, always get insured when you start growing. In the beginning I think it is up to your discretion what you want to do, but because there are so many insurance products out there that will protect you for so little, it's just a no brainer. Talk to someone who knows what they are talking about and someone you trust
Alright Wilson I've been watching your videos for a few years now. I have just noticed in this video your "WATCH". Q. Is it an actual working version and not just some POS relic? Follow up, sick watch where the hell can I get one?
Luke, thanks for the great information. I’ve been detailing for about 20 years now and I have learned quite a bit from you. In the kindest way possible I’d like to give you a tip since I’ve gotten so many from you. Don’t forget to take the license plate off the back of the car, the paint behind the plate needs love too.

Absolutely, thanks for watching man!
Awesome.
You Have Added Life To This Vehicle's Genuine Paint, Windshield, Headlights And Aluminium Alloys.
You And Your Customer Knows The Value And You Knows The Process of Ceramic Coating.
Two Thumbs Up.
Great Job Manl
"Keep Working Hard" Is The Key Guys!!
Thanks man!
I really like that you show people how to make money thanks for all your time sharing love it
Great video! You’re motivating me to grow my business. Love seeing the products you use and strategies you use to get vehicles done quickly.
Sweet Audi.... Scotty Kilmer would like to say something.... 😆
Bro you are a work horse! Hope your body can keep up with the demands your profession puts on it! Keep up the great work that Audi looks amazing! Not a fan of the shiny tires though lol.
the videos lately have been great! Really helping me think about my business and decide how to move forward
Really glad Isaiah!
your great dude if no one believes it you do for sure
What are those 2 soaps you used on the foam cannon and why did u use 2 different ones does it help and or work better or differently
Amazing vid! When doing this vehicle did you do the interior as well or just the outside?
Mr Wilson is this your still your ceramic coating you use for all your details or do you use a different one. I seen a more recent video you were using a different product what’s your best one?
Thanks from Brazil.
Absolutely!
Hi Wilson, everything ok?
I have one think in my mind, to try in my vehicle the CERAMIC aplication and after, do the WAX coating.
It is the best of the best creation or it doesnt make any diference after the Ceramic?
So you do Compounding and then polishing?
hey wilson great video, was wandering if you included the price of the ceramic in to the 1000$ price point.
Very nice. Do you put a topper to protect the ceramic during its cure time. As an example reload with car pro Cquartz.
Hi Luke, I don't know how to contact you other than to just comment, Have you ever used or reviewed Armor Shield IX Nano Ceramic Coating? I am in Arizona with extreme heat conditions 100-119 degrees just about daily. You literally only have 30 seconds to remove it or to buff off. P.S. I love your channel and usually glance at it everyday for new videos. I have really upped my game this year I want to thank your channel for that .

Well done brotha!!! I enjoy watching your videos. I detail on the side. So I enjoy watching and learning i dont have much like you got but eventually I will. I live in Michigan. One day I'll be like u lol god bless bro
Keep working at it man! Over time it is more than possible!
So what kind of spider pads do you prefer? Maxshine, Skys the limit?
How do like this one compared to Avalon King? Getting ready to pull the trigger, help me out. My first coating will be the last coat black ice and the this one or avalon king
this was a 3k job i forgot what detail shop in chicago charges 3k saw it on YT. you gave her a very good price for 1k bro
Chicago auto pros? Lol
Looks like a mirror. Great vid!
My local dealership def doesn't give a crap if it is ceramic coated on a trade in. Im pretty sure they would laugh in your face for asking. You get the KBB rough value on a like new car and they say "thats the market".
Do you also do the paint inside the doors
Hi Luke, chalk up another 'sweet' lesson; this being on prep staging prior to ceramic coating followed by the actual ceramic coat. Now I know you did the entire detail in 10 hours, what is the cure time on the ceramic coating? Most are either 24-48 hours. Do you advise the owner to garage the car when they pick it up? Great job, as always!!!
Bill B Same question as well.
Yes absolutely! Keep it in the garage for 48 hours! That's my RULE, and I'm not one to compromise on rules like this
Yes perfect to cure in the garage ✊I have a few customers who want me to go through all the work and they want to Keep it outside 🤷🏼♂️I warn them about the consequences of not letting it stay garaged. The best place for it and the products are backed by doing it and curing it the proper way 💎🇺🇸

I have never ceramic i bought a bottle but i really dont no what direct to go to apply it. Was gone buy a junk yard hood in a good condition and try it half way. What you think i should do?
Nice work 👍👍👍👍👍👍
👍 Good Job. All renegade products are the best in the market by far.
hi mate, so 1000 dollars it's just for the washing and paint correction of the outside right ? here in france i'm asking 950€ for outside and inside. I wonder if my price is not to low...
Very nice. Big fan.
Scott from Dallas paint correction says its better to use the iron remove before even rinsing/foaming since the water will dilute the product. Any thoughts on that?
Is the 272 just as easy as the zr53 for beginners on ceramic. Which would you prefer for mobile detailing using a garage at a customers house or our personal garage
hey Luke, I like your videos a lot! Great content. I'm thinking about starting ym own detailing business
Do you have any content showing the reason behind so many different products and so many processes?
In your video, after the first 15 min, the car looks the same after you use more products.
I believe they all have their properties and do different stuff to the car, but can you describe that in a video?
Thanks a lot!
I live in west TN and there is no way I could get anyone to pay 1k for a ceramic job. I know the Nashville area has people that make more money than west TN but honestly I couldn’t see charging that much personally. I’ve been detailing for 20 years and to each their own I just couldn’t charge that much.
Thanks for all of the info! I love the details of your descriptions :)
Thanks! Glad that they are helpful
How are you doing this out in the sun without getting bad water spots?
Hey Luke, I have just recently started a mobile detailing business. I’m getting started in ceramics and I have carpros ceramic coating and paint correction. I was wondering if you had any tips on polished, like a good polisher and combination of pads and products to use. There are so many different products to use. I’m wondering if you wouldn’t mind giving me some advice on it! Thank you!
Hopefully it’s not too late but here’s what I’ve had good luck with. A nice polisher you could always get a starter polisher on amazon for $125 it comes with basic pads that will get you going. Then upgrade later on. I really like optimums spray polish. They have a compound, a hyper polish, and a few others. All work well
Menzerna 2500, Meguiars 110, Lake country orange foam pad, Lake country microfiber cutting pad. You can get a lot done with just those products. Also I really like CarPro Essence as a final polish, CarPro Eraser before applying coating.
How long are you letting the ceramic sit before whipping off
Also, with the ceramic coating, does it fill in Clear coat scratches, or would you have to sand it down first??
Have you ever used the Avalon king ceramic coating? And if so how did you find the quality, application and cost ratio? Would you use or recommend?
Young man this is refreshingly awesome video 💪🏽👍🏽❤️☀️
Lots of good information. It looked like during the ceramic process, you were careful not to apply the coating to the silver window trim. Why? Did the sunroof glass panels, rear hatch and side windows get cleaned only?
Good question, I am following up with this car and putting a ceramic on all the glass, so that is when the chrome and pillars will be done, I avoided it in this case because of the prep Ill do with the glass in the future before application
Wilson Auto Detailing So a follow up question is; when coating glass, the rubber seals get coated as well? I guess it isn’t an issue along the top part of the seal on the side windows, the coating between the rubber and the glass (of where the movement is when you bring the window up/down).
Wow amazing job!
Thanks Don!
For every one of your maintenance jobs or just regular jobs where you detailing the outside do you also do the inside or is that a separate job you charge extra for?
Eye candy detail man. Killer body. You're a good detailer too!!
Why so much pressure with the polisher? Was there a reason to polish?
Quick question for you sir. I noticed you using a pressure washer and regular water hoes. Are you not using your own supply of water and electricity? Is it like this with all your clients? Please let me know.
ive watched dozens of your videos and you've helped me so much!

Wash the car with a ; stripping wash or Dawn dish soap works as well. It will remove the old wax so you can buff
So first off. I am relatively new to ceramics. I have taken 1 weekend and this is now my second real customer that wants one. The first car I had 18 hours into, you don't exactly work that in a single day at full consciousness. This being my second one I am about 20+ hours into correction. I cannot conveniently get these cars back in a day. To make them absolutely perfect for a ceramic they need to be properly corrected. Am I in the wrong for taking this long to give my customers an honest application of a very expensive product?
What kind of cars are you working on?
I struggle with that same thing it takes me 11/12 hrs when doing this. I don’t stop reared for breaks or anything.
Thanks for the video. Question: What is a "spider pad", and can you post a link on where to buy them? Also, for that LHR 21 would I need 6" or 7" pads? Thanks!
If you use Ceramic coatings do you need to use Wax too?
If no, Can you use Wax with it or would it damage the ceramic coating?
I had never heard of ceramic coatings before so this is a first for me and I am trying to start a detail business so I am curious to know how exactly and ceramic work together or interact with each other.

I could be wrong, but I don't believe i have said "I'm the best," I believe the conversation is surrounding the fact that the brand I've built in my area at this point causes customers to call me and say 'I don't want anyone else to detail my car, do you have time?" Hopefully you can hear what Im saying and not what Im not saying
Wilson Auto Detailing I gotcha. No hate at all - sometimes just comes off a little harsh to the guys who are really just in their first few months trying to get a grasp of everything!
What is your dilution ratio for the brake buster?
Good job
I’ve detailed at a Porsche dealership...I 100% guarantee u don’t make your money back..if the paint isn’t perfect, that’s why they had people like me there.. to pay about 1/4 of that to fix it
I spend three days applying a coating on my personal vehicles. Day 1 wash and Decon, day 2 paint correction, day 3 coating application. To do this all in one day is so tiring and easy to lose focus.
Definitely tiring, but losing focus is a matter of personal bandwidth I think
What’s your opinion of some of the new spray on wipe off ceramic coatings?
Those aren't the same. They last a couple of months at best. Chicago auto pros did a testing on those if you go to their channel. I've used some in my detailing as a quick coating but it's not the same as applying a ceramic coat or graphine coating.
What Swirl Finder Light are you using?
great vid! one quick question did you wash that wash mitt before using it?
This was right out of the package. There is kind of a falsehood in the detailing world that goes around sometimes where people say that all towels and wash mitts need to be washed before you use them, don't use them right out of the package. Without going into too much detail.. that is simply not true
Wilson Auto Detailing ok that makes sense also i just got a “ gauntlet “ drying towel from the rag company do you think that needs to be washed?
Do you use a brand new microfiber wash mit for every client?
Great video... Excellent points about avoiding the auto detail mob's criticism
Definitely! Thanks man!
Hey Luke. My 10 year old shop vac blb350 is starting to make an electrical grinding sound. I’m definitely sold on Ridgid. I’m looking at the HD1600. I suck up a lot of water so I want the 16 gallon tank. Would you recommend that?
Definitely! If that is what you are looking to do with it, sounds like it makes sense for your situation
Wilson Auto Detailing ok, thanks
Luke would you say that a clay mat is equally affective as to a traditional clay bar?
I never heard of that ceramic coating you suggested.
Did you ever try Servfaces Suave or Ultima, Nanolex Si3d HD or Si3d Max or Gtechniq Crystal Serum light or Crystal serum ultra?
I highly recommend testing them :)
Luke some detailers say if it doesn't come in a glass bottle it's not a true ceramic. Thoughts?
When does your coarse come out?
How many cars can you do with that one bottle of coating?
have you ever had issues with your neighbors because of the noise you make ??? especially in a quiet neighborhood ... i have done my car once in my garage with the door open and it took almost 6 loud hours and i think is not the best place to do it as a business. i wouldnt feel confortable doing it on a daily basis. what do you think ??
Hey I noticed your pressure washer and I happen to have the exact same one.. but mines isn’t pumping water and idk how to fix it.. any ideas?
Your pump is clogged or broken. I replaced a new pump for a friend some time ago. They are not expensive. His was $30 with shipping.
항상 잘 보고 있습니다~좋은 영상 감사합니다~^^
Subbing been following for a while might get back into detail I stopped before the foam cannon came out lol
Not sure what you pay for nasiol zr53 but retail it's 119$. Isn't it more cost effective from cost perspective to use gtechniq crystal serum light at 66$ a pop(super easy to use as well and also durable)?
does the temperature of my garage for ceramic coating matter?
@Wilson, do you throw away the microfiber towels that you use for ceramic coating?
Definitely!
@@wilsonautodetailing Thanks for the response!! Which microfiber towels do you use for the coatings? Ideally, I'd like to find a quality towel that's cheap.
Nice work, and info bro! I’m going to try that one out.
Awesome! Let me know how it goes!
@@wilsonautodetailing do you use any ceramics from chemical guys ? If so which one would you recommend
Hey man
Does nano ceramic prevent swirl marks
Great detailer
Do you normally do this work in your personal garage at home or at a customers house in the driveway or garage? Thanks
He primarily works in his detailing garage at his house. He charges a drive time if he has to travel.
I work in my garage as well as at my customer's homes
Hey What’s your opinion on Crystal Syrum light With Exo 4?
What’s the brand of the coating, I didn’t catch it?
its in the description lmao
Here it is, NASIOL: amzn.to/2Bywldz
Wilson Auto Detailing Thank you, I saw the name later in the video.
What does your maintenance wash consist of. Only exterior or both interior and exterior
A maintenance wash by definition would not include the interior
You've quickly become my favourite Car detailing UA-camr, you're content is so educational rather than just being aesthetically pleasing to watch. Im launching my business as we speak, starting out doing valeting but I want to be a professional detailer! Had my first customer on the weekend and he was very happy with the results!
Incredible! Thanks for the feedback man! I am definitely a lot more passionate about teaching than necessarily making cool videos so that is going to attract some and not others. I think for guys like you who are actually in the business it is probably going to be helpful! Thanks again Dom
@@wilsonautodetailing Keep pumping them out I'm learning so much from you! You're an inspiration :)
Is there enough of this product to apply it to a few cars with 1 bottle?
I detailed for 10 years at a dealership and unfortunately the couple that I worked at could care less about the appearance of the vehicle when it was traded in. The dealer will not give you $1000 bc it is clean bc they are going to detail it anyway. Great content tho. 👍
Dealers want the deal. And if its leased, as long as its not hit, they dont care either. It goes to auction.
I agree having worked at dealerships but you should be able to get that thousand back if you sell it privately, most will pay more if they know it was well taken care of and had a ceramic coat.
I think my point is more this: Like in real estate, the location is going to determine the appraisal value more than anything else, BUT a house that has been renovated recently on the inside is going to peak far more interest for say a first time home buyer than one that is not, and will is many cases drive up the price. That doesn't mean it's going to sell for $20K more than it's worth, but there is absolutely a price tag attached to that. In the same way, a vehicle that is maintained with incredible car is of course more desirable, and that in many ways can cause the same effect when selling
When doing these details like this are you doing interiors also just curious? I’m slowly trying to get into all this detailing world?
Nope, this is strictly the exterior
Thanks for the reply bk man
Maybe you're going to say this, but after you're done asking the coating, don't you have to garage this car for a day to properly let it cure?
Great job brother, just wondering do you have insurance on your business incase something does happen during an installation and you cant fix??
Definitely, always get insured when you start growing. In the beginning I think it is up to your discretion what you want to do, but because there are so many insurance products out there that will protect you for so little, it's just a no brainer. Talk to someone who knows what they are talking about and someone you trust
@@wilsonautodetailing thanks brother, jeep producing great content. 🙏
what was the orange stuff you mixed with the foam cannon soap?
Optimum Power Clean
I can’t add ceramic coating for my services, because I have no idea what or how much to charge?
Alright Wilson I've been watching your videos for a few years now.
I have just noticed in this video your "WATCH".
Q. Is it an actual working version and not just some POS relic?
Follow up, sick watch where the hell can I get one?
