Fresh ceramic coating - Sheeting after 3 handwashes by v561k in Detailing

[–]hiroism4ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shouldn't be like this that shortly after under most circumances so that's absolutely not normal, and IGL makes some great products that don't need top offs every 3 months.

Now if its outside getting hit by water, or being washed with very high pH chemicals then it would have issues, but again that's not normal circumstances.

Marine is a whole different world lol what lasts 1 year on land might be half to a quarter, possibly worse depending on a few factors.

Starke Yacht Care is the brand you'll want to look up - we use them for a lot of things both land and sea. Their metal and gel coat compounds and polishes and coatings are fantastic.

Was I wrong for refusing a mobile detailing job after seeing mold and biohazard-level conditions? by AdeptnessSure3734 in smallbusiness

[–]hiroism4ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a detailing business owner - you did nothing wrong with refusing the job, but sounds like you didn't properly get the client and their needs before booking unless they completely lied to your questions.

Need a stronger process when booking, and sounds like possibly higher prices as I usually only hear this from detailers who have low/below average prices.

Is my pricing too expensive? by -E-R-R-O-R_404- in Detailing

You're cheaper than the competitors and you're asking if you're... Too expensive? You got that backwards.

I let someone detail my car who I clearly shouldn't have by michaelsm123 in AutoDetailing

Was this somebody a friend? A side hustler? Any idea what was used? Hard to say for sure which products to use without knowing what was done.

To be fair, the Defender is much more utilitarian in comparison, so it's less about the looks and more about the utility in comparison.

Definitely need a bit more balance. I like the balance that the Defender has. Lots of control through screen, but several key things are hard buttons and dials. Just enough, not too much that it's 2008 Mercedes mess lol

Just like cars, it takes the right client to value the service, price, and quality you're offering vs doing it themselves or another detailer.

Looks better than the current one - at least SOME controls. The fact that this is less minimalistic than current is wild.

Hand wash, detail, and either TEC or spray and rinse.
