Sometimes you misquote a job but the most important thing is keep the client trust by being transparent with the work it takes and extent of the damage etc. You did all that and deserve to be paid what it's worth. Good job and excellent learning opportunity to be confident in quoting future jobs like this.
🙏🏾 thanks for the encouraging words!!!
Not gonna lie man, the bit about not knowing everything but acting like you do has earned you my respect. Props to keeping it real. Keep hustling. The unknown and curveballs are what keep us on our toes and wanting to improve. As long as we adapt and overcome it'll always be a good day.
When doing overspray its best to go with a physical clay bar, these clay mitts and clay pads are more for maintenance. Clay bars is one and done
True. Good advice. Aggressive Traditional clay is better for tough overspray.
Yep. Even clay mitt makers make this disclaimer. But self taught guys don't know the truth. They only know what they see on RUclips. Tons of subpar methods on RUclips.

Steel wool works great for removing overspray from windows apply little bit of soap and water and hit the windows removes absolutely everything fairly fast
laquer thinner, acetone , googone is what used to get most of that stuff from my bodyshop experience
Here in Europe we use Koch chemie eulex for paint overspray. Much better since I don’t have to clay. Spray it on let it sit for few minutes and you wipe the overspray right off.
Because when you clay you introduce clay marring.
“You got a choice”. Absolutely! Glory to God for all things! I see why you’re business grows. Great call on taking the cars to the shop.
I swear i was just speaking to someone about you and how you show the reality of being a business owner and the dark side of the unknown work we are given the opportunity to overcome the work and make our customers happy. At the end of the day if the customer is happy thats what counts not what opinions anyone else has about what you have going on. Everyone has an opinion and never want to give support to the ones willing to take on whatever is thrown. God bless and keep on!
I haven't started my detail business because I am not confident. I've been detailing my own cars for years before it became a trend. But honestly after watching hunter for a while now I know I can do it. Some of these things are common sense you can't do 6 paint corrections in one day. Test spots are your best friend in these types of situations, you should never give a price if you don't know the condition of the vehicle. Thank you, hunter, for giving me the confidence. if guys like you are out here killing it I know I can too.
Just start my man!! It’s worth it if this is your passion! I’ve been doing this since 2009 and after a long day of work - I still make time to detail my own car! Like anything, you’ll get better with time & experimenting. Trial n error. I’m at the point where I can walk on a job and I can tell exactly how long it’s gonna take by looking at the carpet material, the level of dirt on the paint , etc. detailing is intensive labor but the money is excellent .. six figures + I make a year. Lot of work but worth it!
@@butskiiueepp1625hey man how has detailing been for you? I’m turning 21 this November, I’ve been detailing for almost a year now I’ve got all the good stuff except the big pricy things like; truck / van , power generator, air compressor , water tank
Any tips or advice
Nice job Wayne keeping it real and honest is the best way to go at it at the end we live in a world where truth will always come out it will be just a matter of time when it does. Blessings keep up the good information
I appreciate the inside look into the business. You're a true inspiration.
Amazed how well you've grown Hunter! Not only the bussiness, but you as a person, a detailer and businessman ;-)
Doing great, keep grinding it!
I love your page man, you have helped me with m 20 times over. Had a Spray Foam job all over a black Ram.... Clay is the way. Did it about 2-3 weeks ago and Company paid to avoid insurance claim. Customer was stuck in awe.
When dealing with overspray you can use paint thinner on the body (do not use it on the trim or any plastics as it will damage them and leave them looking faded) this is the easiest method to tackle overspray. If you need to remove paint or overspray from plastic and trim I suggest you use Solvent as this will remove the overspray without damaging the trim/plastic. Just a tip I’ve learned :)
Good to see someone keeping it real. Definitely helps me as a new detailer to have confidence and tackle new challenges head on! God bless you brotha!
Hey Hunter, I deal with this quite a bit. Go to Walmart and get Goof Off the professional strength remover in a yellow bottle. Runs around $7. Just don't use it on black trim. Use steam for that. You would have been done in less than 30 minutes with each car, aside from polishing it of course.
Great advice! Thanks for that.
@@annagraham6204 you're welcome.
Which goof off specifically?
There like several variations of goof off
@@mariomcmichael3230 the round yellow can like bottle with a twist off cap on it. It says pro strength on it I believe. It's around $7
@@AndresSanchez-zy4fr my guy
I think I have that one already along with the graffiti remover version
Thanks bro
You are great at communicating with your clients. It is always good to communicate the details upfront.
This detailing community really reminds me of the growing cannabis community.. everyone is so helpful & just wanna see everyone learn, appreciate & love the art of growing & I can kinda see similar traits here. Keep up the great work fam ✊🏽💯
Keeping it real is what I subscribed to this channel for. Great video, what’s the update? How did they like the cars?
On the harder spots you can use goof off to retrieve the overspray. Good luck hunter wish you well!
Wats good bruh I detail too take your time it will come to you keep pounding 💯
I appreciate your transparency and courage my guy. Your mistakes, not all I would make, but I'd definitely commit about half of them🤣 50/50!
Nonetheless bro, you've given me a lot of confidence to stand on my own and try new things [detailing] .
We learn together and I've learned a ton from other detailers and hobbiest by reading the comments. This channel set itself apart by assembling the professional community and enthusiast community to troubleshoot business plans, situations, or ideas. There're so many different markets, different regions/climates and cultures to consider each subscriber shares their own personal experience or advice. It's a detailing hive mind 😄
Please remain humble, keep grinding, remain transparent so those inexperienced and experienced in the business can learn.
Most detail channels show the positives of what they've learned, not so much the negative. We really can't thank you enough.
I would just recommend taking some before and after pictures to show the customer. Most don't realize how much work goes into removing overspray. You can also use the pictures for your site if you have one.
I'm pretty sure you've already knocked this out but one word of advice I would offer is this:
Find a spot that's a pretty good representation of the damage for each individual car, from there start with the least aggressive method to remove it and get a good result and then take notes about it and what worked best for each one and then work at em in your preferred order. I like to knock out the most challenging thing first and work backwards so my job gets easier as I get tired.
One method is not going to work out on all the cars. Even if they're all facing the same contamination as a group or the overspray in this case came from the same source the surface that it's landing on and bonding to has differing characteristics and there are just environmental differences on a small scale that will impact it. The biggest consideration in overspray or heavy contamination in my opinion is how long or strongly is it bonded, and what is the paint underneath like?
The mission is always to remove it while doing the least harm possible resulting in the least amount of additional work for you to bring that surface back to the level it was at before the incident. Now if you take that and apply it to this scenario, with a place I could dealership or rental company dealing with high volumes of cars, It's very likely these had already had a pre-sale detail That they were okay with, so I wouldn't be looking for them to be very interested in upsells or anything like that because they just want to get the cars back to the acceptable level that it was at before in most cases.
That leaves you with some options here, and I would always just try to present them to the customer to get to know their preferences better and ideally build a better long-term relationship.
I'd say depending on how extensive the overspray is (is the vehicle something you can somewhat spot treat for example), I would present the scenario as: "okay do you want me to just address the overspray and contamination issues and get the vehicle back to the level it was previously, or do you want me to address the overspray removal and then do something like a paint enhancement on all the vehicles afterwards just to bring them up to a uniform and hopefully overall improved appearance as a group rather than just getting them back to presentable? I would also offer the caveat that depending on all the factors and what you find out when you get in there, there is every chance that you may end up having to do a full two step cut on some of the vehicles, or some spots at least. In regards to that last part I would tell the customer that I can work on our agreed on approach and then from there call them if anything crazy really pops up to see how they want to deal with it.
Honestly if it's high volume, I would do my test spots so I have a hopefully somewhat accurate view of what the overall project is going to be on every car as some will be harder and some will be easier, and then just put together a package consisting of overspray removal, and a one step enhancement.
At minimum you're going to be doing a lot of spot polishing anyway so it makes more sense to try and lump it all together and present it as you giving the customer somewhat of a package deal to help him out and get the result you feel is representative of your work.
Then when you're actually doing the work look for any spots or any little things you can do to go above and beyond that typically wouldn't be included but aren't really costing you any extra time or effort, and when you present the final results and go over them with the client you have lots of stuff to point out to them that you gave them for "free" and the cars will look more than presentable they'll stand out because of those little touches. Depending on volume it's important to look at building a foundation or a stronger relationship with the customer as the upsell opportunity because you're hopefully creating consistent easy work for yourself in the future.
I know in this case it's the painting company that hired you but assuming they do a lot of painting you May be able to leverage yourself into a position of who they turn to or finish work or even doing quick interiors or one steps before they present a vehicle back to the client for example.
Just keep doing you I feel like you going to learn on that field
Bro im older but I admire you're grind.
So crazy I just did my first job as yours a month ago..same shit happened. Might be the same paint company lmao..
But I started off at the low rate then was like ....I need more money. Ended up averaging $700 or better a car. Watching your video was like watching myself on how I did the same steps and all. Turned out like one car a day. Lots if work Different cars were different. I'm in Wisconsin . Great minds think alike.
Pearl of Envy Auto Detailing . I'm on the road to getting myself back together. God working in 2 sides if the world with like minded people. Stay great King
Hey Hunter, just a suggestion. For these big jobs, such as fleet vehicle clean ups, overspray removal, etc. I think it would benefit you and the customer if you head out to them with your personal vehicle to give them a quote and you can charge for gas and tell them that price will go towards the detail. This is just something I do whenever I receive a paint correction request.
That's a tough job in a rough environment good luck trial and error is how you gotta learn sometimes
It’s ok not to know everything, but we can all learn from watching RUclips videos on how someone who’s been there has done it . So we won’t be struggling
We start at a 1000.00, for over spray removal. It amazes me how little you charge.
Hunter i dealt with silicone over spray the way we did it was. rupes machine add a clay pad and our lubricant was water def recommend a iK sprayer. hope you see my comment probably done with the job !
Hunter! Good tip for windows that need that razor blade. Use Steel Wool grade #0000! Doesnt scratch the window but is hard enough to remove any imperfections! Must be grade #0000!
You can never give a spot on estimate with sight unseen, tought situation. Thanks for showing the biz brotha.
I detail for 4 body shops, overspray on windows, i use laquer thinner and even on certain paints it comes right off. Of course clay each car as well. Then wax to finish. Just that outside process is $400 a car
Paint correction of course is an extra charge, probably making it $600-$800 car
& gotta give s/o to the camera for asking all the right questions 💪🏽
Mechanical decon works well but I have found some times that using some chemicals like goofoff will help take some spray paints off and they have a product they is called over spray eliminator it works great I have used it on some cars that got spray painted on and it took it off.
Got that SI looking Good
Hey hunter P@S sell a chemical called Solvent X does a really good job for overspray sometimes but I recommend some acetone for overspray or paint thinner really easy to use as long as your out of the sun and cleaning off the surface you had it on 👍
For windows def recommend steel wool buy 2 packets hope they get through the vehicles 🙌🏽
Man this is crazy. Tape up all the plastic, microfiber with a bit of diluted paint thinner, follow up with panel prep and a spray wax, you'll be done in 30 minutes. For the glass, us a fine flat razor blade and some soapy water it'll come off so quick.
I like when you said you are going to choose to rejoice in that trial.. Some jobs are put in your lap to help you grow your skillsets. Next time you are called for something like this, you will be better equipped and more knowledgeable to handle your business. Good job and God bless, Brother.
Laque thinner works good just have to be in the shade
Yes, It's actually easier and faster than clay bar although still suggested for doing after thinner.
I ran into a situation like that . that over spray on vichle was just to much like 2 layers of spray on paint surface. An first panel i hit it with clay mitt an nothing . to rough . so washd an dry car an . had to pop open a new clay bar to get job done . am old school an clay bar is one of my to go tools no doubt.
Let’s go!
Break parts cleaner then wax n buff it out. Im just a DIY guy that got over spray on my Tahoe. Right or wrong .Thats what I did and it worked.
Use P & S solvent X for paint over spray had to do 5 cars like that 3 weeks ago. Three man crew....knock it out in 8 hours
Keepin' it wet mobile car wash and Detail
did you have to machine polish afterwards ?
Did you try iron removal?? Apc spray or in a foam cannon so it can dwell on the paint??
My Brother use a little gas with water to wash of the gas of the car. We did this trick working in Auto Body. Rub a little gas in a towel. Rub on the over spray spots. Wipe after or spray with water. Work well bro.
That's a tough job. I've delt with a similar situation but with dry concrete mix. Very time consuming work. Just takes time. And time is money. Anything is possible. My take on this I would have started with super clean the whole car
I do over spray removal for a company that does polyurethane spray for roofs. The wind grabs it and hits cars sometimes. Only thing that works for that is letting the car sit in the sun for about a month and then clay barring it. UV rays break it down. When you get in to this type of work, you need to unfortunately get out of the detailing mind set. The client does not want to fix the swirl marks on the persons car. If swirls were there when you showed up, no need to remove them even after clay barring. They simply just want you to remove the overspray. I tell my overspray clients the cause and effect. I Say I need to go aggressive and that will leave imperfections behind that can be fixed with a polish but that will cost more. We settled on if the car is marred and swirled before I start working, don't worry about polishing. If it's perfect paint before I start working, polish it. This communication and giving him options has allowed us to do business with each other for a long time now.
One time I got called out to a job where the painter was spraying stucco on a house and the pressure hose burst and shot stucco all over the customers new car. I assumed it would be an easy job however it turned out to take me two whole days. The only way I could get it off was using a vinegar/alcohol mixture and degreaser to soften it up and chipping it off with a plastic razor. It came out really good and I got paid $400.
Bro that ladder behind your head is a huge liability. Front end collusion would leave you with a big dilemma. Stay safe brother and strap your tools down
Hi. Thank you for all the information you share with us. I am trying to click on the link to learn how to create the app but it’s not working. Can you assist? Thanks
Learning from you my Brother - Pittman and sons auto detail San Diego 30÷ years. Fyi:)
Yo wayne WD-40 and clay sponge or bug scrubber has for for me in paint scuffs but it still is a huge pain to get that stuff off
Use 0000 bronze wool to remove debris like overspray from glass and glass only. 0000 bronz wool is safe to use on glass. 0000 bronze wool will conform to the shape of the glass. DO NOT USE 0000 BRONZE WOOL ON PAINT BECAUSE IT WILL SCRATCH THE PAINT!
Yo bro.... 0000-00000 steel wool for those windows next time. Little iso spray to soften it up by the time you spray the windows down by the time you get back to the first one it's good to go
We know you wash then clay bar but did you use iron removal?
If heavy clay bars are used, most of the time the vehicles will get scratched up pretty bad. Which will require a correction right after. If overspray use a solvent based type chemical to remove it the over spray. Let the chemicals work!! Make sure not to spray it on black pieces( rubber or plastic) it will fade.
what type of solvent based type spray chemical are you referring to?
@@mariomcmichael3230 Depends if the contamination is oil based or water based.
Wayne, you are the REAL DEAL MAN! Yup, owning a business is hard. My first gig was a dj gig. I had a sound system and friend's dad wanted me to dj her graduation. I did not know anything! I had nothing but at the end of the day, they were happy with my service. I felt great and made 200 bucks for 3 hours.
Yea bro. Overspray always going to need correction. So charge accordingly. For these cases you’ll need to see how bad it is, how long it will take. And charge accordingly ✊🏽✊🏽 keep grinding and always learning
Would apc pre rinse have melted that overspray paint?????
I would've asked from the get go can I move these to my shop for a better working environment after seeing qll that sand and dirt awe hell naw 🤣 if they said no or even hesitiated that's not the right customer for me..... 🤷🏿♂️🤣🔥
$800 per vehicle is good, my opinion. Still working on a price for my detail business too.
so am I bro
where did you buy the clay mitts at?
buffing and polishing would be the easiest way i work at carvana’s IC
Rubbing Alcohol work fast
ohh yeah i would have charged them the same 800 a pc . if the painting company goes thur insurance each car owner has to make a claim which will make the painting companies insurance sky rocket to to mention the headace for the car owners that have to wait and go to different body shops or detailers . thats hit brotha !! gluck your dead on with the price . knock um out a move on tot the next set
For everyone saying body shop, it was not a body shop. Think about it body shops use a booth. Context clues show this was most likely a commercial painting company painting the exterior of a building on a windy day, which would cause the paint to carry over that brick wall 🤦🏼♂️. It happens all the time.
In my experience the mit clay does not work as nearly good as the actual clay bar for removing over spray.
Sunday I have my 1st Clay Bar job I've been detailing cars since Nov 5th now I'm stuck on how much I should charge to do a Clay Bar job I haven't told them the price yet but I'm thinking I do it for 450
a little bit of paint thinner goes a long way in these situations
What extractor is that hunter?
What kind of a painting company is it? If it's automotive painting. I'm very surprised they didn't take care of it.
Haha camera guy is funny good stuff though I like the videos
Keep it up brotha😬
YOU IN THE RIGHT PRICE BRACKET CHAMP
Onr make gallons by the cents
Detail Spray
We would charge between $1200 -$2200 per car because the owners of the car are going to be very picky they will expect their cars to look brand new when your finished
Thanks for that info!!
I would of wet sanded and polish not a big job at all 2500 3000 grit get rid of the over spray either way compound and polish has to be use to get that shine back
There is some chemical product like cement removal which meant car paint and its totally safe for paint. You might want to test it for future job.
you got a link for that?

No mineral spirits/solvents? Comeon man
If you had Koch Chemie Eulex you would have knocked out all 6 in the same day. 🙌
Hunter I know you’ve been asked this many times my dude, but how do you detail in the sun? I have had people ask me if I can mobile detail but I tell them no because of unknown/ less than ideal conditions outside. I live in Buffalo so I could only realistically do it a few months anyway but like you I don’t like telling a customer no.
Deionized water
I detail black escalades in direct sunlight.
Why didn't you try eulex
YOU HAAAAAVE AAAAAAAAAAAAAA LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT OF PATIENCE BROTHER IM TRYNA WORK ON THAT ASS WELL NOT LETTING STUFF FRUSTRATE ME BECAUSE IM ONLY GOING TO GET A NEGATIVE OUTCOME WHEN I CAN TRY TO MAKE IT A POSITIVE THING AND MAKE MY SELF FEEL EVEN BETTER I LIKE THAT
I love your vids and that you’re a Christian based company!!
Agree
Paint gloss is an expensive clay lube.
Hi
What typa company is that🧐💭 car rentals⁉️
Those ladders dangerously placed in your van, be careful.
My brother, check out and network with Apex and Miranda detailing. IMO, these are two of the best when it comes to dealing with the situation you had. Just my opinion. Many God continue to bless you and your family and business.
Lmao bro if you don't know what your doing then you don't need to be detailing the car with overspray not being a ass or anything but I never take on work that I don't know how or what to do to knock it out ! That's how screw-ups happen then your paying out your pocket to get it fixed ! Just saying my dude no hate here, love the videos!
Set a price, respect the price and get to work. I know it's a business but i wouldn't do business with a guy who called me 2 or 3 times to just bump up the price.
I need to raise my prices ASAP . I’m barely getting a hundred per detail , some people are cheap … anyone knows how I get around that ?!
Yeah you raise the prices and those people disappear and the good ones appear , just focus on the quality and service . Real spenders don’t care about the money
@@granthorn3013 I appreciate that advice Bossman 💯
Yea with what grant said but if it’s a monthly/weekly reoccurring maintenance customer I’d say keep the price around what u were already charging depending on what ur doin
Like I do 2 cars every Friday that are weekly reoccurring and literally Their cars are inna underground garage brand new whips they don’t even like tire shine or shiny interior either I’m n and out in 1 to 2 hours and made a sleazy $85 usual I charge $100-120 minimum but they’re cars literally don’t even need a weekly detail but shoot I’m not complaining🫡😂
@@n1ggawithaclappedaltima8402 your maintenance is 85-100 😳😳 I only charge 45-60 for mine … I need to stop playing and raise prices a little more
I swear y’all be tripping too much sometimes lol. Overspray ain’t a big deal. Claybar will get it out. Hell, even your finger nail.
Lol 😂 I brought 6 different clay bars. This was a different beast. The company even said they can’t figure out how to get off the overspray and they made it.
@@HuntersMobileDetailing Was it water based or oil based?
Tarminator and this would have been simple G
I wish it was bro hit it with that and 10 other things. The chemicals they were spraying was graffiti resistant.
I think you underhanded
Don't twist your clay mitts it ruins them
It's a lot of hate in these comments smh... Press on and have continued success!
