Josh, I’m a 17 year old junior in high school based out of san diego trying to start a business in car detailing in order to help support my family. I’m currently pinching pennies to try and purchase the equipment you review while I find a place to really learn about how to take care of cars as well as you do. I just wanted to drop a comment and idolize you for all the work you put in trying to find products that benefit everyone who lionizes you. Seriously one of the most professional and humble business owners. Amazing content. Thank you

The market for detailing in San Diego is over saturated, get a job and save money that way. Then move. Also a 17 y/o doesn't "pinch pennies"
@samuelm.18956 ай бұрын
@@OptimumCarDetailgood advice but you can't just tell what he is or is not doing about the "pinching pennies" I started young detailing too and I definitely was "pinching pennies" also. He could already have a job and have money but is trying to make that money amount work for what he's trying to achieve. I definitely relate to that.

Since cost is an issue for you go for the best bang for the buck options, there are tons out there. Don’t get caught up by the detailing snobs that always have to have the latest and greatest. Find what works and use it a lot is the saying. The most expensive option isn’t always the best, in fact it rarely seems to be these days. For a pressure washer don’t waste money on all the junk that’s out there. Matt from OG did a massive test on all the pw’s out there and proved most is junk. There’s a reason Josh recommends the Ryobi, which is one of the cheapest out there. Under $200 only get the Ryobi or Karcher. Under $400 the active. Everything else, like the Adams he just reviewed, is just rebranded junk and a waste of your time and money. For the hose get the Uberflex/flexzilla as Josh said.

I’m a DIY detailer. I’ve been detailing cars for family and friends for over 30 years. About a decade ago I stepped up my game and bought my first pressure washer. Then came KZbin. I picked up lots of techniques and better tools and chemicals. The last replacement hose I bought was significantly better than the original one but it still has memory kinks. I would love to add the Adam’s hose to my setup. No more kinks would be awesome.

I've started using the "Over/Under" technique anytime I coil up a hose, cable, or cord since it completely eliminates the twisting. This way you can connect one end and just pull the other end out without any risk of kinks or twists. There's a little bit of a technique to it, but it's not hard and there are tons of KZbin videos on how to do it. I even use it for any of my Ethernet patch cords that are longer than 6' - it's just automatic now.
