    Love these sorts of day in the life videos so much. Both informative and interesting to watch, you’re the only genuine and down to earth detailer UA-camr I’ve watched. Because of your videos I actually had the courage to start my own detailing business! Keep these videos coming :)

    I always carry a cheap plug in desk fan heater in my van, great for warming your hands up in between washes. It’s also great for keeping the van reasonably warm.

    You've given me a great idea. I'll try using my Castelli cycling neoprene gloves for winter washing. See if that helps. Cold hands really can be miserable.

      That’s really good going. I managed to get 3 done (because they were Audis, not due to ability😂) but I have always struggled to get 2 cars done at once. It’s a tough job, but thankfully I still enjoy it.

    Hi, would I be possible to ask you a question.
    My partner had just bought a new Tucson and it has lots of dark plastic trim at the bottom of the doors and around the wheel arches.
    What would be the best product for using on it after it has been washed.
    Someone said the back to black spray but I think that would leave it sticky,
    Thanks in advance.
