The people that haven’t been in the field don’t understand why you explain everything as such a high degree, I enjoy it and find it very useful and informative, thank you for your content 💯
I’ve had a detailing business on the side of my full time job for about a year and have been putting things into place for me to do it full time and these videos are very helpful through this process. Great content
You easily can make 75k plus if you can market and upsell inflated and useless services like this kid. Just make sure you’re in an affluent region with an available market. This is a VERY value added dependent service, you MUST be able to communicate well and be a good salesman. If you can do that, you’ll have it made. No need for any real “detailing” skill. However, HIGH quality paint correction without F-ing up the paint takes a little skill which can be learned very quickly.
I’m somewhat in the early stages of this same journey myself. And I was simply curious, how has/did the process go for you since you posted this 2 years ago of working full time for yourself in your detailing business?
@@thatkckidd.6563 probably not the answer you were looking for, but I don’t detail at all anymore other than my own vehicles. I was detailing Saturday and Sunday (all day) and working my full time job Monday-Friday which is an extremely physically strenuous job. Long story short I got burnt out but that doesn’t mean your experience will be the same as mine. Make plenty of time for yourself and don’t overwork yourself
Everyone commenting "this is not a ceramic coating" what sealant do you know of that lasts up to 18 months? Thought so. This is a branch for detailers to get into.. For the customers that don't want to pay over a grand, starting, for a 3+ year coating. And anyone commenting that for $600 you'd apply a traditional glass bottle ceramic coating, well I'm sure your work speaks for itself or you truly aren't charging enough. Luke, thank you for making more and more content for detailers that want to be profitable and make a living. You help us tremendously. Would never have thought of this. So much detailing industry stigma and BS.. don't let the haters get to you
Nobody is hating him. Ceramic coating or graphine coating is just a hydrophobic wax. That’s all it is.Your not going to get 18 month from a wax. And that’s all it is a wax.
Feynlab ceramic lite is $40 a bottle. You apply the whole car, go to lunch, come back from lunch and level it with two towels. I’ve gotten 2 years on my daily and it’s still going strong. Hoping for 3 years.
Brother. I am no detailer. I do not have a detailing business, nor do I want to (it's a lot of work!). I have no idea why RUclips has shot me all of your videos , but I'm binge watching them all. Your business acument is on point, and you seem to really know what you do. Your energy is amazing, and I hope you do very well. Keep being awesome teaching the world your craft.
Fantastic video! At the end of the day, people aren't paying for the six hours you spend, they're paying for the ten years' experience you have that enables you to complete the job in 6 Hours
This was a good honest job! The price point was spot on ! I can see the customer has took good care of the car and hey my daily gets the same treatment !
IF you buy all the products he’s using I guarantee you it’s more than 600$ only a fool would work for 6 hrs to get paid 150$😂and only someone with no money would suggest such a thing.
Great Video Luke! In response to your iron remover idea, i have a different point of view. If you use the iron remover before, you make it easier for the clay bar to pike up contaminants as well as the chemical loosening the particles. I just think that since clay bars aren't the cheapest things in the world, putting less stuff in the clay will make it last longer. We all have opinions and if it works for you then keep doing it as you have been super successful. Once again, great video!
@@Will-ii1dy Gyeon recommend that you use the iron remover before the wash of the vehicle, they say you don’t want iron particles in the wash mitt etc, so do the iron removal then wash it and then tar removal and then rinse and either job done or move on to clay and polish or whatever
For someone's daily driver what is the life expectancy of the coating? I have some clients that also would like a cheaper alternative to a full onset ceramic.
Amazing Video! Helps us a loot, you and Apex are the only ones talking real money, others keep it a secret like someone`s gonna kill them if they tell you how much they charge for something. PS that`s exactly how i do it to, wash-clay-iron-rinse ...best way for me to ! Keep it up man. Respect !
I 100% agree it makes sense to capture the market segment you are targeting with this. It provides grest value and results to the customer with a $600 budget. I don't like calling it a ceramic coating, it dilutes the coating industry. A ceramic spray sealant or ceramic based sealant is better terminology in my opinion. Keep in mind, for long term protection, you are putting your own reputation behind the products you install.
Appreciate your practical, up-front advice. You put your own opinions and techniques which have been successful (and some you have admitted openly have not been so successful) out there, which is refreshing. They also, unfortunately, open you up to lots of jealous, critical comments here. Keep it up. You’re taking the best approach!
AMAZING I love these tactics they are so helpful to my detailing business. Im gonna sell this package to my customer I detail his car every month. LUKE u underestimate optimum hyper polish. I used that stuff and it does like 85% of swirls not 60% u crazy. A one step polish for this car is a perfect amount of correction.👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 great work bro
I like how everyone with a real profitable full time detailing business here love it and say this price is perfect but all the people who don't are whining saying it's a $150 job. Funny.
That's because the value of their time is $0. If they're earning 50,000 per day/week/month do you think that person would waste their time applying a ceramic coating? The answer is no, and the person only quoting the price of the ceramic simply isn't worth your time
I found that I was able to be faster with the claybar when the iron decon was used BEFORE claying. That's the reason why I use chemical before physical decon. But still, your arguments are very good concerning this!
his argument is non-existent. "I haven't seen empirical evidence, side-by-side, etc" You use the easiest means to remove debris FIRST before going to harsher abrasives, simple order of operations: Rinse, Wash, Chemical Decon, Clay, Polish (test spot, if the results are good, continue, if not... compound then polish). Logic works.
What is a good pre treat “bug and road grime” chemical that you can put on the bumper, grill, wheels and tires, and even the like the rocker panels. Something I can dilute and put into a sprayer ?
Very intelligent guy with an amazing depth of knowledge, but just as important, a great way of expressing himself and getting his message across. Bravo sir
12:20 i dont know anything about detailing but doing a clay bar first and then the iron remover makes sense to me. What if all the non-iron particles are physically preventing iron from coming up? Clay bar gets as much stuff out as physically possible. And then once all that stuff is out of the way - its time for chemical. Makes perfect sense to me, unless the iron stuff doesnt wipe off or requires claybar after anyways
💯! As a mechanic, we don’t charge less because we’ve researched and bought tools to make the job faster w/ experience. You pay one price or more if the jobs a pain in the ass. Never less
If I would've found this guys channel before college, I wouldn't be going to college for business 😅 would've just went ahead and continued growing my detailing business instead of putting it on hold
Been prospecting the idea of a detailing business for years, instead of just learning all of this to do all of my own vehicles. Your video's been very helpful. Thanks man.
Luke, I clean a lot of black cars mostly family. Have you tried the Turtle wax black kit? Most people in Illinois would rather pay $25 for a touchless car wash. How do I win these people over? thx
What is your opinion on 3Dspeed? And would you use the technique of press hard on the forward pass and ease up on back stroke? Also...after polish one would do the IPA wipe down before applying TLC ..correct?
First time replying on utube, Adams spray coating is in its third version it is goes on and comes off so much better and easier now. Can you please review it tell us what you think?
Cedric Jackson I used it a lot for my customers and it is a great coating. I have used the first version and second now the third tracer coating. I will say you still have to wash decontaminate iron removal,clay and polish.
I'm seeing very interested on your video and how to start a company, what kind tips you can give it for a beginner like what type of form is used to remember why you did the car for maintenance like what product you use for the car
he went on a spiel about "no empirical evidence... yadda yadda..." bottom line: Chemical Decon makes claying easier, and results in less marring, meaning less polishing is needed after. But he's also hawking crappy snake oil like "The Last Coat" so.... the only thing that would be worse, is if he wear pimping Chemical Guys
its always refreshing to hear what you have to say, i like to compromise and allow the customer more customization over the work this allows us to maximize profits, while many will say you need perfect paint we know the customer really just wants some additional protection but not perfection.
How long is the pressure washer hose you’re using? I got an extension because having to move the PW every time I go to a different side of the car wastes time, but the foam doesn’t come out nearly as thick anymore.
Hi Wilson I lk to know how many details do u do in a day and what do u customers ask for mostly and thanks for the videos from Richard in the UK ❤️ the Chanel
A lot of haters in the comments. He’s prob making 100k a year and he uses critical thinking for every part of his business. Explaining to customers and giving them knowledge helps them understand the cost.
So i just want to say I really enjoy your content and it is really helping me start my own business in detailing. One day I would love to be on your level but I understand that takes time. With me starting out what is the best way i can market my business and what equipment and product do I need to start out just until I make enough to get more. I already have some store bought product and a shop vac that I used on my car and got the job done. I just don't want to break the bank just to start. So whatever advice or non super expensive equipment and product you recommend I would greatly appreciate it. Also im charging 100 to 150 a detail just wondering if that is to low because of the value I offer. I do apologize for the book im writing but just trying to learn the best way I can .
How well does that black ice coating work? I really enjoy TLC2 and Amp. My only issue is I don't have a garage to keep my truck in to do black ice or other ceramics. Northeast Ohio it's hard to get cure time without rain...
@@alecwoodard7665 I have to say TLC2 has done a fantastic job on my truck. I have been using since the new formula came out, literally 2 applications and still beads and repels water like crazy. I do a foam cannon wash about every 3 weeks if not more frequently. I use AMP every couple of washes to give a little extra shine and it works great as a drying aid. I hear the original formula was not so good but second one pretty awesome.
Could just be an exterior package or even a customized package. You don't always have to do interior and exterior, you can do either or. You'd have to see what his package structure is.
Tim Walker either way, this is a rip for what was done. NO detailer is worth $90 bucks an hour. This is unskilled labor. That statement is qualified by the fact that no specific training or qualification is needed to be able to describe yourself as a “professional” detailer and provide this service. Any Joe Shmo can do this, with a minimal investment. Guarantee I could do this job with harbor freight tools and products and 99% of customers would never be able to tell the difference. Why? Because 99% of people are ignorant about this stuff. All they need to see is SHINY! And any defects or shortcomings can be blamed on environmental condition or whatever.
I know its a fickle grey area, but for customers that you have good rapport with, it would be cool if you could get them to agree to get on camera for a reveal/reaction. Especially for jobs like this one or the red jeep. Obviously not relative to the overall content or subject matter, I know, but it would be a fun little bonus for these specific jobs. Just food for thought. THAT BEING SAID, I have been wanting to tell you that I really enjoy and appreciate your content. It is concise, informative, and really well articulated. It really speaks to someone like myself that has good business sense and an appreciation for like minded, studious individuals. Keep on keepin on. Much love from Denver, CO -Cheyne
Great video. Just speaks to the level of “better than” attitudes that go into this business a lot of the time. THIS is realistic. I think it’s a great idea and solution and a great money maker for the average customer. Great job. One note-you said you’re using “bead maker” to clean the wheels and wheel wells but I think you meant brake buster judging from the color. (Had to go back and look lol). That is what you meant right? I’m knew to this level of detailing (on personal stuff) and just trying to learn if you’re doing something out of the box! Thanks!
"Value" is something that gets thrown around so much....this is a really good way to demonstrate. Paying a guy a reasonable amount to go over every square inch of their car doing the most important and impactful things, and not artificially inflating the price with unnecessary services.
I agree! Just find it unfortunate how he's choosing to communicate that value more recently. Calling the lady's Santa Fe an entry level car was a terrible way to start. And this should have been about developing relationship, getting the car back for maintenance work, etc. Instead the focus seems to be on "I just got away with 600 bucks because the lady doesn't really understand what I'm doing". If that's the case and considering she asked for shine, he could have used coconut oil on tires and she wouldn't know the difference.
@@JWL-UK I know my comment is 2 years too late but his commentary flew over your head,he said the client wasn’t interested in the high end process ,but something more cost effective for her to keep her daily driver in good shape he in turn cut some steps and used a less pricey ceramic ,he stated everything done to the car and what he said to the customer there was no sneaky “she doesn’t know anything “it’s all in the video.
What would or do you use as a trim dressing for maintaining (maintenance wash) trim after applying a restorer like CeraTrim or Cherakote? Great content, learning a lot!
Mr. Wilson I been watching your RUclips videos. for the last 30years I been detailing for major car lots in Oklahoma I would like to take it to the next stage of detailing been watching your RUclips videos for the last three years I have been learning on using ceramic spray
I love your business mindset 🙌 I have a business and in the beginning I used to negotiate pricing. Now I don't because I know my worth and value. I've had people who once didn't use my services, call me later because they weren't happy with the other company they went with 😂 I believe cheaper doesn't always mean better 🙌🎯 Keep doing what you are doing!!!

How well does that black ice coating work? I really enjoy TLC2 and Amp. My only issue is I don't have a garage to keep my truck in to do black ice or other ceramics. Northeast Ohio it's hard to get cure time without rain...
it's just a spray sealant. Use TW Ice Seal and Shine for the same result from a $10 product
@@alecwoodard7665 I have to say TLC2 has done a fantastic job on my truck. I have been using since the new formula came out, literally 2 applications and still beads and repels water like crazy. I do a foam cannon wash about every 3 weeks if not more frequently. I use AMP every couple of washes to give a little extra shine and it works great as a drying aid. I hear the original formula was not so good but second one pretty awesome.
Another great video and gave me some new ideas for my side gig. TY
Can u use ceratrim on top of solution finish
I love your business head! Keep on valuing your work bro! Keep it up!
Are you doing interior cleaning, door jams and engine detailing for this price point?
Could just be an exterior package or even a customized package. You don't always have to do interior and exterior, you can do either or. You'd have to see what his package structure is.
Tim Walker either way, this is a rip for what was done. NO detailer is worth $90 bucks an hour. This is unskilled labor. That statement is qualified by the fact that no specific training or qualification is needed to be able to describe yourself as a “professional” detailer and provide this service. Any Joe Shmo can do this, with a minimal investment.
Guarantee I could do this job with harbor freight tools and products and 99% of customers would never be able to tell the difference. Why? Because 99% of people are ignorant about this stuff. All they need to see is SHINY! And any defects or shortcomings can be blamed on environmental condition or whatever.
I know its a fickle grey area, but for customers that you have good rapport with, it would be cool if you could get them to agree to get on camera for a reveal/reaction. Especially for jobs like this one or the red jeep.
Obviously not relative to the overall content or subject matter, I know, but it would be a fun little bonus for these specific jobs. Just food for thought.
THAT BEING SAID, I have been wanting to tell you that I really enjoy and appreciate your content. It is concise, informative, and really well articulated. It really speaks to someone like myself that has good business sense and an appreciation for like minded, studious individuals.
Keep on keepin on. Much love from Denver, CO

Great video. Just speaks to the level of “better than” attitudes that go into this business a lot of the time. THIS is realistic. I think it’s a great idea and solution and a great money maker for the average customer. Great job. One note-you said you’re using “bead maker” to clean the wheels and wheel wells but I think you meant brake buster judging from the color. (Had to go back and look lol). That is what you meant right? I’m knew to this level of detailing (on personal stuff) and just trying to learn if you’re doing something out of the box! Thanks!
You have the link to the ceramic coat?
What product do you use for the exterior plastic ?
Does the $600 include the exterior wash and polish before the coating? Or is it $600 separate?
"Value" is something that gets thrown around so much....this is a really good way to demonstrate. Paying a guy a reasonable amount to go over every square inch of their car doing the most important and impactful things, and not artificially inflating the price with unnecessary services.
Opportunist, definitely.
I agree! Just find it unfortunate how he's choosing to communicate that value more recently. Calling the lady's Santa Fe an entry level car was a terrible way to start. And this should have been about developing relationship, getting the car back for maintenance work, etc. Instead the focus seems to be on "I just got away with 600 bucks because the lady doesn't really understand what I'm doing". If that's the case and considering she asked for shine, he could have used coconut oil on tires and she wouldn't know the difference.
@@JWL-UK I know my comment is 2 years too late but his commentary flew over your head,he said the client wasn’t interested in the high end process ,but something more cost effective for her to keep her daily driver in good shape he in turn cut some steps and used a less pricey ceramic ,he stated everything done to the car and what he said to the customer there was no sneaky “she doesn’t know anything “it’s all in the video.
Congrats on the 100k subscribers!!

What would or do you use as a trim dressing for maintaining (maintenance wash) trim after applying a restorer like CeraTrim or Cherakote?
Great content, learning a lot!
Mr. Wilson I been watching your RUclips videos. for the last 30years I been detailing for major car lots in Oklahoma I would like to take it to the next stage of detailing been watching your RUclips videos for the last three years I have been learning on using ceramic spray
What can be done to tone down the shine on the tires?
Great idea to upsell with an affordable coating add on!
What is the steamer that you use ?
Willy you are a blessing
I love your business mindset 🙌 I have a business and in the beginning I used to negotiate pricing. Now I don't because I know my worth and value. I've had people who once didn't use my services, call me later because they weren't happy with the other company they went with 😂 I believe cheaper doesn't always mean better 🙌🎯 Keep doing what you are doing!!!
could you use clay mitt instead of clay bar?
Looks amazing!! Thank you for the video for someone like me getting into this business.
That cera trim coating is wonderful!!!!!!
