This is true even my Father says the same thing on the part of health what’s the point of making a ton of money and in the end you have to use the money for hospital bills.
I’ve started scheduling details later on in the day in the summer. Doesn’t get dark until after 8-9 and if I have a 4-6 hour detail I’ll start it at 1-3pm. So while it might be “hotter”, the UV index will be a lot lower towards the end of the job, rather than peaking at the end if you started a detail in the early morning
Cover up with breathable clothes. If that sun is hitting your skin your body will be working extra. Also use the water you have to cool off by soaking a towel and placing it under your hat and mist your clothes every 15-30mins. These 110 Vegas temps can be brutal but the appointments get done! Good stuff, specially the health, diet and hydration part.
I just did a Black BMW in 81° but this Texas sun! It was a fight to get the quality finish that I aim for with no shade. Pickint up 10x10 with 3 walls,my issue as a fresh start-up mobile detailer I have funds going to many other needs. Each completed job earnings 100% goes to supplies and equipment right now.
@ToddTinley that's a good idea to maximize shade. I just did 2 teslas yesterday in 100° weather, I'm on my way to pick up a single 13x13 this heat is dangerous.
Formula 4 spray wax. This product is the only reason why I feel 100% confident detailing in the hot Florida sun with the hard water. After you spray this product and rinse off, do you have 15 minutes to drive a vehicle, blow out the cracks, and apply protection without having to worry about water spotting. Game changer.
Really ? You're not just repeating luke wilson info? I'm genuinely curious. I'm a mobile detailer and struggle with getting cars dried fast enough. I haven't tried it, certainly have seen videos tho. Tell me it really works, I'll have to actually try it, I know its cheap at oriellys
Wear a hat that covers your ears it’s a game changer you have given me so much great advice threw out the years this is the only time I went bru 😂 your the best dude
Hey guys Quick Detailer question. I recently did a clients vehicle in the shade and after I finished there were hard water spots on a few panels. I re washed and dried the vehicle very quick and they are still there and on the glass, any tips helps!
Best way to avoid having to ask that question is to ask for the clients keys, then open the vehicle doors and start it up infront of them. Now let them know you will be removing items to create space for vacuum and cleaning. The focus has moved away from the vehicle being on, if it's a major bother to them they will say something. The goal is to have A/C available during wipe down and trim dressing. I can do without A/C during vacuuming, although I want a cool surface for my products. Max of 25 minutes of vehicle On. Being way too direct can be problematic , I run a residential and detailing company. It's key to navigate clients in benefit for both of you.
