wearing black gloves seems to be step one to being a professional detailer, seems like they all do it.
Would you rather have dirty hand with dirt and chemicals or have gloves? We use black cause blue or white gloves get more dirty and you can see it and looks bad for the client.
Thanks for sharing Luke! I’ve watched several of your videos and have had my son watch as well. He just started detailing and has the aptitude for it. I’ve been helping him from a business and funding perspective but your videos are helping him with more about how to detail. Thanks for all your help!

Thank you for a great informative video
Thank you!
Yes bro, honestly u made me wanna start a mobil detail so ive been detailing my friends cars to start off with
Hey luke when you do mobile detailing did you take your own water to wash the outside?
bro this helps out so much to the point where i dont need to comment you do great work😂
That was great and yes it was helpful 👍
One loophole I ended up finding for a heated carpet extractor was using my shop vac diy extractor hooked up to my hot water tap for the washer. Dont have one so it was open. only drawback is needing the customer to come to me or have a hot water tap available. it works in a pinch and only cost me around $120
Thanks for this video man
thanks brother. Very helpful
Great narration and tips for business. Thank you.
Thanks Philip!
Yes👍🏾great job
Thank you bro...I'm 43 years old and you I spired me to get back into detailing....by the way jus got laid off so I started my detail business from my home garage in california....thanks again...
Good shit man I been thinking of starting detailing myself. I too got payed off March and I got down today because I drove by an old project and saw ppl and the company as if no layoffs ever happened. On another note that gave me a kick in the head and I told myself “I don’t like the idea of going back to work for somebody So that somebody lets me go all over again”
Amazing! Love that you are taking control of an unfortunate situation. Winning attitude
Great video, great info, nice work on the vehicle.
Thanks man!
Your videos have been a game changer for me! thanks so much. Ive always had bad luck on glass and streaking. Im using chemical guys glass cleaner with the waffle glass cleaner towel and it leaves the worst streaks. What is your recommendation on glass cleaner?
Great video man, thanks
Absolutely, thanks for watching
Yes very helpful 😊
Been watching your videos for quite some time now and have gained so much detailing knowledge from your videos alone. Just started my detailing side job and it’s going very well!! Thanks again for all the amazing content! Stay working hard. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Proud of you man! Keep hustling
It's very interesting to see a detailing pro branch out and help others build their business. Seems like a great niche to be in! Affiliate marketing & sharing your knowledge will surely build a great supplemental income.
Definitley! Thanks for the input man!
Best in the game🔥keep it up!
Thanks Adam!

Thanks man I appreciate it
Soooo close to 100 k subs
Great video
Hi Wilson. Your t-shirt is very beautiful. This red is to die for. I received one in black. I love this site.
Wow I did not know that we live in the same city. I love auto detailing bro. Your job is amazing. Auto detailing is one of my hobby. I’ve doing cars detailing for my family and friend. And i had good feedback from them. I’m thinking opening a Sat Sun business for car detailing at Fairview. Hope to hear any advice from you bro!
Being from TN too, you must live in either the Franklin, Brentwood, or Green Hills area:) Keep up the work and videos!
Yes, it was very helpful
Great!
Very helpful
That’s was very helper
Hey what brand or model is the tool cart you have there?
For a maintenance wash do you change 75 bucks for just then interior on this one? Or exterior as well?
Luke, do you coat the steering wheel with some type of conditioner after the APC treatment?
I’ve noticed the conditioner I use leaves a tacky residue on the steering wheel
Is there any particular reason for this you think?
Is Meguiars orange citrus cleaner equivalent to the green apc
Awesome
awesome tips man! how do you price add ins such as the windshield protection? also would love to see a water test with the rain repellent!
For things like this, sometimes it’s better not to price them in! Add ons like this that are so easy can be a great add on “free” service to build up a reputation. But I generally make $50/hour with something like this so I leave myself room to do some things for free without losing money
Percieved Value 👌
I'm in Johnson city tn! My sister lives in Nashville
Super helpful
Great! Thanks for letting me know!
Hey, Wilson! I need maintenance client acquisition training. That's one area I seriously slack on in my detailing business @kwautodetail here in Orlando, Fl. Do you have any videos of yours you could recommend? Thank you! Yes, this video definitely does help especially when you demonstrate "how to" without having to click another video to find out.
Grade A video again. Glad I subbed
Thanks man!
I think I found a new side hustle! Hopefully more than just that.
love it :)
What steamer was used at 13:18? It looks different than the Mcculloch much more steam too!
It is the VX 5000 steam cleaner, they used to be available on amazon but I believe you can only get them now on their website, they are about $900
Luke how do you schedule your clients when it rains? So lets say you have one client on Monday and it rains but Tuesday is a good day but your booked for that day. How do you get back to the Monday client when you have a booked schedule?
Extremely helpful. What kind of price differential is a dirty detail to your maintenance. Ex
75 maintenance charge vs (dirty detail price). How do you up charge is what I'm saying
I actually charge closer to $100+ even for maintenance, and while it’s a difficult question to answer simply because it varies so much, I will generally not touch a really dirty interior for less than $65/hour
I really enjoy your content luke. If you have time I would love to chat with you actually and pick your brain about more of this specific video but products etc.
Definitely man! Email me if you can Wilsonautodetailing3@gmail.com
Great video .
Thanks Nick!
What head camera are you using?
what do you think of griots garage products?
awesome stuff. How did you advertise when you first started?
Well I first started ten years ago going door to door with flyers 😂😂
hey luke when you do mobile detailing did you take your own water to wash the exterior of cars?
I always used the customer water and electric!
Detailing course:
When will it be released?
As usual Luke you’re on the money - no pun intended. I’m a secondary school teacher coming up to retirement teaching engineering, design metalwork, woodwork and technical drawing. I’m currently only able to do weekends and holidays with the sun setting at 5pm as its coming to winter here. I would love to transition to your 4 hour a day model, but can you see that happening for me while I’m working full time? I have 5 regular customers (one who did the same thing to me last Friday as she spilt a casserole in the boot and the dog went nuts every time it got in the car trying to get to there food! My new Bissell extractor killed it. I too would like too use my teaching to educate as I go, but getting tie to edit my footage is an issue. Keep up this content as its great to hear ways to impress customers
Absolutely man! Good questions for sure, I would say firstly, the fact that you already have 5 regular customers is pretty amazing as it sounds like you are still in the beginning stages. Double down on that model because I can tell you from experience that is where the real growth, money, and leverage is. I think the 4 hour model (give or take a little time of course) is something that has to be worked up to in a sense. Finding those clients can take some time, and developing a tried and true strategy and system can take a little time as well, that being said, I don't know your abilities of course, so you may be able to grow faster than others! Keeping it as a side hustle for now, and slowly growing it from there is a tried and true way to go!
Wilson Auto Detailing thanks for the reply Luke. I’d say after 2 years of practice and about a year of client work, my skills are above average. Coming from as hand on practical teaching subject has helped. I’ve just been commissioned to bring a 1969 Ford Mustang coupe back to its best ready for sale by the owner so I must be doing something right. I’ll post some instagrams shots when its done.
you use that am spray to condition the leather
So ive just started detailing or learning how to and i want to start it as a side business. There are so many detailer near me how would I set myself apart
Offer value
Where do you purchase your gloves from?
Luke this process you are doing in general every time you visit the car for maintenace??(if we remove the tme for the coffe spill)
Yes this is a very “regular” approach to maintenance clients for me
@@wilsonautodetailing thanks Luke keep your great job congratulations
what interior lights do you use when detailing?
Truth me told, I generally detail in the sun when it comes to the interior because it’s impossible to look over things under the sun light. My garage also has good lighting that I installed about 4 months ago, I like the frosted LED bulbs. I would look up what kind of lumens you want and what would be best for your situation. It can get confusing but everyone prefers different things
Hey will just got my extractor and I’m trying to get a good carpet cleaner?
Chemical guys lightning fast... just make sure you extract every bit of it as I have read it messes up the carpet but just extract it all and you should be good!!
Btw.. I only read one person saying that.
Hey Luke, I'm trying to start my own business out detailing In Illinois. I'm going to start being mobile. I need some help on prices and basic tools for detailing. What do you recommend?
Search Pan The Organizer Mobile Detailing on youtube and look at his video series on your topic. Helped me.
@@reeseboi8704 thanks man..
Alot of people dont understand that a good detail takes time sweat, equipment knowledge. Im in a border city so nobody wants to pay but i agree a good detail cost a pretty pennie!!!!!
