All Glory to God , God Bless u brother i really like what your doin man keep going big things are headed your way forsure All Glory to God. Just trust in him and keep him first he will use you if you let him. In Jesus mighty name
Other than getting the hose connector turned around (watch out for that one), the machine is simple to put together and use ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxfQauTxLT0JLSvqkq10rD79TU4k0Vz8zP . And very nice, too. I'm surprised at the power-it's more than we'll ever need, and we've not even used the most powerful setting yet.I've cleaned off a dirty concrete porch to get it ready for sealing, started to clean siding, and I know this pressure washer will be terrific for cleaning tools this fall.The only issue we had is we had turned around the hose connector, and it leaked. Once it was on correctly, though, we had no problems with the connection. Just remember that the end with the green knob goes towards the hose. It's obvious now what we did wrong, but not necessarily obvious at the time.
The air compressor is undersized and cycles too often Therefore, it cuts out on high limit/ heat overload. We have this problem, too and the solution is a bigger capacity air tank than the pancake compressors have.
Mate I wish I could work with you you got the spirit
I had a guy that wanted a job so bad, at first I trained him how to do paint corrections, ceramic coatings. Literally after that he would start calling out an I let him go after the 3rd time
If u ever drop a Microfiber Towel or Microfiber Mit on the floor, DONT USE IT AGAIN!!! Even if it isn't that much dirt, it still picks up other stuff that's not visible to the eye, it's not 100% guaranteed that everything will get out even if you pressure wash it to clean it off 👍🏽
Wayne I got a question for you my brother is your pressure washer TSS
Business and Family should always be separate. Its RARE for it to work.
I hire my brothers who work for me and they don’t complain i pay them by the hour but it’s all good not every thing works
As long as you keep it business it’s business. Plain and simple .
@@nevergiveup9560 yesirrr end of the day you gotta make money for the business and the employee should understand it
personal opinion mate
Me and my brother work together, no problems. We just sat and talked about how both of us didn’t want problems and wanted to open up a family business with our parents
I worked for my dad for 10 years. We fought every day because we couldn't separate that family/employee dynamic. After I quit our relationship improved significantly.
Weird
@@manylopez6785 how?
I feel this. I work for my brother hvac company and so yk those long days it gets real heated and we just go at it. I also live with him so it’s even at home. I want to quit but I can’t leave him hanging rn, just waiting for the right time
@@manylopez6785 You must have never worked for your family business
We run a dealership with my dad me my brother and my dad. fathers like when their sons grow with them and not hide behind his shadow my older brother and my dad always had that similar thing but instead of my brother quitting we opened another dealership and now it’s 3 of us 3 on the same page making money, but maybe your dad was just a harsh employer and he didn’t respect you as his son and employee. I started off detailing his cars and worked up to salesman anyway glad your relationship worked 👌🏼
"Imma speak LIFE into his situation" 15:19

I receive it in Jesus name!
This guy is absolute class, still gotta finish watching the video but seen other videos and you're so honest and that's what makes this channel great
I find that in this industry most detailers are introverted and are aiming to have people meet their perfect standards which is cool. Switch from being a detailer to a business owner and invest in people. Currently have a team in toronto making minimum 200$ each and im making 250$ for each head. Be a business owner not a detailer.
Wow great observation. That makes sense as I detail cars too
The $ sign goes before the number by the way
You might need to replace your check valve on your air compressor. Also business is business you can hire a friend but while you're at work you're the boss he's the employee and there's no friendship involved. The most important thing you can learn in life is how to say no.
On your air compressor problem… how many gallons is your air compressor ? You can only use em for so long until you have to give em time to reload with air
After you use it it needs to be charge again I'll think.
I hired my cousin about 5-6 weeks ago as my first employee for my business. Almost every week there was some issue that came up and I kept trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. This past Monday there was another situation and I had to let him go. It went pretty good but I'm 23 so to be so young and own a business and having to hire people and "boss" people around and need things done a certain way it can cause some awkwardness in your relationship if you don't keep it strictly professional. At least that's my new take on it, but I tried!
What business u in detailing?
Yeah bro I’m 23 as well and i own a detail business but i feel weird telling people what to do because i never have that authority before but it takes some getting used to
@@daltoncrawford4849 I’m 27 and own my own business. I tell me brother what to do as well. Your the boss you started the company man up and be a leader don’t feel bad. You are in charge my man. Also it helps I pay my brother 20$ and hour so he listens lol what wage do you pay your employees?
@@startingtech3900 around $15 a hour
@@daltoncrawford4849 around? So like 12-13$ bucks an hr? up the pay maybe that’s why u feel bad 😔
To keep it short bro, You have to be very upfront with friends and family in business. They need to understand that you have a business to run, money to make and a reputation to uphold. If they have an issue with that, or you feel they are the type to have an issue with that, save the relationship right then and there and say “ hey look, i don’t think this is going to work out the way we think it is, I don’t think it’s a good idea “ that’s just me.
agreed
First i like to say a thank you to hunters mobile detailing that guided and help me to become the detailer im in today and only been in the game for a year so its going. Second id like to say this a person that u wanna look up too. He professional, he its detailed in his process of the car and is hilarious and i can see he loved to do what he does. Awesome content. thank u for teaching me something i never thought id pick up. thank u brother🤙🏽
Hunter you probably should fire that guy BUT keep that shit to yourself it’s not for the community to know your business stay humble and keep building your business haters are gonna hate.
If or when I decide to do this detailing shit , I would do it solo dolo ! Would not care if I had one or two or three details a Month ! Would not really give a shit ! But everyone finances are different. Do what you can handle ! Im an Army Veteran with comp and pen ! So , fuck it ! 😂😂Keep doing you Wayne !
He makes more money employing people because he’s able to do
More jobs but I guess it all depends on how much work your have coming in
i would conisder changing that yellow nozzle for the white 40 ° nozzle.. Somehwre down the line you need a higher flow pressure washer with a wider spray pattern. ( much more efficient & quicker )
Which pressure washer would you recommend?
Kranzle
Hey Wayne im curious how do you pay your employee that operates independent in the other van? Commission maybe?
Yes sir commission I will do a video soon as I got my other van officially running with new employee
@@HuntersMobileDetailing thanks a lot keep up the great work
Never work friends or family. Thats buisness 101. Buisness is life or gutter it's no place to have personal feelings. I found this out the hard way as many have. One in a dozen may work out. But it can also sink you permanently. When you and your wife and kids depend on it it's just not worth that kind of risk. Great job and setup tho man. Wish you all the luck and hope you thrive.
hunter keep investing into the yt channel its gonna blow up bro
About the air compressor , it may be because you have items around the machine itself not allowing it to grab air!!
Be certain to drain your compressor tank a few times a week. It is probably filling up with lots of water which in turn leads to failure of the valves and such due to internal corrosion. It has already been mentioned about the check valve too. Really enjoy watching how you handle situations and you are learning and growing. Wish you were here in Fort Worth to tackle some of the cars on my lot!
Any thoughts on opening a shop as well?
Yeah, non your air compressor you said if anyone knows about why shuts off cuz it fills up with air that means you need a better air compressor that holds more are that's why shuts off when the air compressor shuts off like that is because it's filling up with air yeah you need to buy a air compressor that holds more air in the tank the reason why it shuts off is because it fills up with air and then it begins again
This one is from my personal experience
But I believe detailing industry pays good but doesn’t give you enough to have someone long time and make them think that’s what they want to do for next 7-10 years
Eaither they decide to go on their own or
They rather have a job at Walmart just chillin not doing much and not getting beat up in the heat, or they want to make as much as you the business owner.
That’s why I’m slowly saying goodbye to detailing myself
Working 5:30 am - till mid day
And calling it day making $250+ I’m happy working alone
But my vision is to have people go around and it’s hard because you’ll always have the people that are just temporarily
I’m 20 years old and 3 years in business
I’ve had my highs and when I thought I had my business going good and was becoming passive
Boooom, losing an employee.
Thanks for sharing the CRM app. I’m not that happy with the one I’m using. Look forward to you’re review. I hate that mine charges me a large process fee every time a customer pays through it. As far as the friend/family deal, like you said, set the expectations upfront.
I charge taxes on the app so that makes up for any fees. It’s all Integrated.
Love watching your videos as I also own a detailing business that is still in the growing stages. I’ve definitely learn some things from your videos that I now use on a daily basis so thank you for that.
The main reason I commented was to touch on your air compressor turning off & taking some time to start back up. The issue your having is one I ran into a while ago therefore I know the exact solution. Air compressor have a “duty cycle” (how long the compressor can run before needing to be off for as long as it was running for before cutting off) . To simplify it, you either need to A) add a auxiliary tank (additional tank) in your system, or B) upgrade to a “constant duty cycle” compressor. This type of compressor does not need a break or to be turned off to cool down. I semi solved my issue by just adding a 11 gal auxiliary tank which allowed me to have more gallons to use before my compressor would kick back on to level off the tanks.
Hope this helped! Keep grinding & receiving your blessings 🙌✊
Can I get a shout out bro on a video I’m a mobile detailer here in San Angelo Texas been doing it for 6 years now keep up the good work boss
Post a video about your van
You should wear a mask when you dusting with air that’s people skin flakes and other things you don’t want to be breathing that in Wayne
Good tip!
Bro I don't know if this may help but getting a magnet and a basic clip board so you can slap it on the van so it can be easy to access and quicker to check off rather then running inside the van to look at the clipboard everytime.
Took me one time to learn this lesson...had my uncle help me on a big job once and I could tell he felt some type of way about me telling him what to do..lol
Rigid was an ultra quiet compressor works amazing small and compact
Straight up - you need to have an employee handbook/list of guidelines just like you do for your different wash systems to keep the structure throughout your business. I guarantee not one company anybody else has worked at has been hired without first signing some sort of agreement after reading or going through an online webex training that indicated they understood what was expected of them and what the consequences would be if they failed to follow the rules. You need to have some sort of discipline structure in place for instances like with what happened with your friend. I.E - First time failure to respond by 7am = Warning, Second time = Write up, Third time = termination. This also covers you in case they try to say you never told them or properly laid out the expectations. Good luck and keep at it!
Those are the kind of things I’m having a hard time coming up with that’s all new to me. So I’m working on that kind of stuff now. I appreciate you bringing that to my attention
Employer is responsible for scheduling and notifying employee when they are supposed to work. If you make employees reach out to you at 7am to see if there is work for the day, you will have higher turn over than you should. Make your schedule, then contact employee when adjustments are needed…These days you pretty much need to coddle your employees in order to keep them. Detailing is tough enough as it is, try to make the employment part structured and easy to follow. We are living during the cancel culture / great resignation, do whatever you can to not give your employees a reason to quit.
I think hiring family memmbers or friends never works out why... because family members tend to want free money then they get mad and at the end they quit having support from them eeeh you wont have any... same with friends you hire friends for your business what they do .. they slack off and want to get paid and not do the job... they wont support you either... hire people that arent family related or are friends... with you some one who actually enjoys detailing and wants to learn those are the people who really want to learn and will support you 100% all the way
Move your compressor to your 30amp plug.
Them harbor freight pump sprayers are shit I have 4 and they all acting funny. But I don't do the friend thing I don't want somebody who just here for the money I need someone who wanna do this.
I’ve been detailing with my dad since I was 13, I’m 25 now , over the years we perfected working as a team & some days we don’t even need to communicate , because we’re so in sync
Your air compressors probably cooked, mine would do the same thing and it’s because the actual motor gets to hot and triggers the shut off.
Should you really be posting stuff like this?
Have some class, respect and fire the man in private.
If I was that employee after seeing this video up I’d be out that’s disrespectful towards him putting him in the thumbnail and everything...
i think you are using the fortress air comp still if i recall. i would try draining the tank with the valve on the bottom they have a vacuum issue. if that doesn't work it is probably overheating and you will have to put it in a more ventilated area. You will also need to take care of the oils and make sure that you are changing them regularly. This will help you out in solving the problem for good. There is an interval for changing these oils and not only that, but you will also have to mind the viscosity of these lubricants that you are using. Make sure that you are using the right oils and that is going to help you in solving the overheating problem on your air compressor.
Wayne for the compressor make sure you are draining it out. When you use it a lot it builds up a lot of liquid.
Why would you put this out for everyone to see. It should be between boss and employee. Not the world .
It’s up to me to decide that if I choose to do that don’t worry about it. Me and my friend are good Brotha.
You a good dude Wayne . I feel ya . I hear what you saying my brother . The channel is dope too , b roll and all .
Can you make a video on your water tank setup?
Bro make sure that compressor has room to breathe is sounds like it’s over heating! Make sure it’s free of anything and nothing is on it and fresh air is flowing also maybe you have a small tank 1 gallon maybe? I have 2 4 gallon air tanks in my car that for air suspension but I had this problem before because the compressor kept kicking on and over working it so either upgrade the gallons to bigger size or upgrade compressor hope it helps doesn’t sound electrical issues so that’s a good thing
The problem with your air compressor is that you need to invest in a better one sir !
I did thanks ! Lol
Hunter make a video on how to start getting clients as a beginner. I started my business here in New York. I’ve made my business cards talked to people I know I’ve done taken care of a few people’s car it lead to other jobs but now I’ve experienced a stop in clients, I’m on social media. What else should I do? Btw I love your videos keep up the grind 💪
This is the perfect example of how EVERY detailed needs to be. That will change peoples views on just ‘throw water on it and dry it’
I used to work for my brother. Only problems we had was he expected twice the work and gave half the credit he had with other employees. Luckily we always had good communication. It all worked out. We're closer now than ever. But it's hard working with family or friends no matter what side you're on.
He's gotta respect it's your business. Hopefully he understands now.
Y’all better not be firing my boy javari hunter he put you on the map bro bro (with your help too )
Lil Brotha rocking he not going anywhere. Def apart of getting me where I am truth.
@@HuntersMobileDetailing haha you got me with the thumbnail lol!
My mom always said never hire friends or family. Most of the time it’s a bad idea but sometimes it can work. It all depends on whether you’re on the same page and are able to separate business from personal life. Some people can some can’t.
….so WHAT if an individual got dismissed from this type of small (non-skilled or semi-skilled) job. It’s NOT a big deal especially when the responsibility level is not that high. The only thing ‘bout this job is “labor intensive”…that’s all. At the end-of-the-day, any Tom, Dick, ‘n Harry could start this type hand car wash/detail business especially w/ very very low start-up costs when compared to other businesses out there.
a big no no
Everything was great except the part you mention $25 pet hair removal. Up sale.
Is nice and all but I recommend. To have
That charge in your work order Leaving dog hair behind even if the customer does not approve can take a impact In Your reputation. I been detailing for a good minute bro 😎. I recommend a different software. I will be posting a video about it soon stay tune ..
Also. Ask your employees what rhythm work flow works for them. You’ll be surprised how many ideas 💡 you’ll get.
Awesome work stay detailing. God bless
Well, sometimes you may need that..."come to JESUS" talks😄
Air compressor mite be getting to hot.
I helped my auntie sell a million in makeup for her business and lemme tell you . Friend/ family & business Do not work . I said fuck that bcuz she was ungrateful and I’m ready to start detailing 😮💨
Only had 1 friend with whom I could work with, unfortunately he went abroad. Both of us could work very well in our own parts of the job and it clicked from day 1.
But tbh , this job is one of those jobs you need to do with passion, not for the money it brings.
He just has to be honest with you and himself, without hard feelings, but he's probably not passionate enough about this.
The moment he just needs the job for the money, he will not show up at a certain point, simple as that.
CALIFORNIA AIR TOOLS!
They make the best air compressors and the prices are very reasonable.
Good Morning and happy holiday bro. My name is Billy George I am a beginner mobile detail, I have 3 years of the basis car wash and wax and I wanted to see if you ever need help so I can start making money to invest in my personal mobile detailing company.
Family or not, I'm hiring someone who I can train and will uphold the same standard I do, during a detail..That way i can trust them with the work truck. So I can focus on advertising and booking clients
would love to see customer reactions when they see their vehicle cleaned
Friends & family it's good but it's better to get a stranger that you can molded him your way w the structure of the company then a family member cuz things can go sour that's me cuz I've had the issue as always great job looks awesome great tutorial as always be safe God bless William from extreme optimum auto detailing pr
don't hire friends or family nothing against them stranger support you more base on my experience
It's very difficult hiring friends or family. They may show up in a time of need, but both tend to take advantage or manipulate you and the business when opportunity present itself. Try hiring someone that's willing and able instead of a sometimes / maybe type attitude worker.
Your business isnt scalable as long as you stay on a ground crew. You’ve learned the trade and know how to do it well. At some point you’ll have to take a step back and focus on business growth and building crews. Thats the difference between making a couple hundred of thousand and a million dollars.
It seems like your air compressor is drawing a little too much power. I’m assuming you’re using a generator in your vehicle to power it but those big tanks need quite a bit of electricity to fill back up
Your compressor is not rated at a 100% duty cycle i.e. you can't run it constantly. It needs periods of cooldown in between uses to prevent thermal overload. Since you're using high volumes of air, you either need a larger compressor so it doesn't have to cycle as much or buy a more expensive compact compressor with a 100% duty cycle. Also relocate the compressor to a place where it has room to vent heat. Near the roof of the van is probably not a good location especially as the sun is beating on the car more and more as the day goes on.
Offer a couple of free detail jobs to the lead salesman at the high end car dealerships in your area and watch the money flow. Give them plenty of business cards, don't be stingy.
hiring outsider is better for the job and business. family's member alway trouble and find excuse.. Not on work schedule .
It should never be about the money, it should be about the quality and service, the money is a natural byproduct of focusing on the service. Friends and relatives are the worst partners or employees, ever.
Use a tarp or runner on the ground beneath those mats when you clean them. Never clean the customer belongings directly on the ground.
Gr8 vid.👌
Love the videos mate but I wouldn't be posting calls, and talking about what your employees doing wrong when YOU forgot to call him twice. You posting that kind of stuff publicly isn't respectful as an employer in my opinion.
Need a bigger compressor, You are hitting the thermal switch because its working to refill the tank constantly. (small tank im guessing)
you forgot to send that schedule tho IDK, If you always blame the employee. that is something you have got to fix so make sure to "send that schedule"
Bro I have a air compressor from Harbor freight and it does it all the time. There should be a reset button. Unplug everything else from your generator and hit the reset button. The problem is there’s too many things running on your generator and the air compressor is not getting enough voltage to push the piston to get it started. After the piston gets well lubricated and theAir compressor it warms up usually resolves itself

Touching on the friend thing hiring when they don’t show you take that days worth of money from there pay check nobody likes that they learn real quick time is money and your not going to put up with that bs this is the real world here . Step up Wayne
Most compressors fill to the max psi then they stop once your u drop past a certain point they usuallyturn on and refill think if it was constantly filling with air you would have a potential bomb
This is no joke, I detail my own vehicles . Its hard physical work! Most people cant hang !!!!!
Even though I might not know early what's happening whether his bro is messing up or not homie should remain humble. Idk though I might be wrong
Guys like this are the type of boss i want you can tell he’s the type to help employees come up w him if they show the work ethic and showing you want it anyone know this guys @? Would love to work w someone even if its for free i need someone to teach me the ropes if anyone is hiring or need an extra worker in the orange county area let me know !!
Excellent video Dude , I like the way you Are doing your business I like that , keep it going good bless you
I learn that family and friend do not mix in any business. I would not hire any family or friend. Too much problem.
You need to drain the air compressor id do it daily at the end of the day. It fills up with water and it will cause rusting and in turn break the compressor.
It's too small of an air compressor. It runs out too fast because it doesn't store enough before it runs out. A bigger tank with a larger capacity to store.
Awesome video. I always love upselling as I own my own detailing business as well. I wanted to ask how long does it normally take you guys to detail those 2 vehicles? Me by myself I typically spend 3-4hrs on a truck like that and 2hrs on a car both with the full works. How long does it take you guys tag teaming?
You're air compressor is over heating set the psi so it so runs & shut down and start back up should fix the problem
Air compressor is probably overheating.. make sure the tank is drained of water and the motor is cool
make sure the air compressor cord is directly plug into the generator and if not then generator might not be able to handle all that power. check watts on the air compressor.
Yo hunter get some waffle weave towels for the windows they are a absolute game changer for incredible windows 🪟 🙌 😍
Bro you better not fire him he will get the hang of it me and my beautiful wife been detailing but word of mouth we are blessed this crazy Texas weather
We can't detail here in Oklahoma like that. Its illegal to wash the cars outside without having a drain system.
You need a bigger air compressor likely. It shuts off because it's over used for too long of periods.
What up broski To answer question bout your air compressor is you have release vile on your machine need pull it to realest pressure
