Detailing Van set up 2022

[@smartqcargo8014]

Good luck 🤞🤞🤞🤞 buddy

[@Lilripper850]

Why two pressure washers? I have often thought about running a gas one and an electric one in my van. But not two of the same. Just curious as to why? Thank you

I have my son work with me, cuts the wash/exterior cleaning time in half.

Great setup and equipment, always liked Chevy Astros, just the right size but hard to find one in good condition

[@realdetail6447]

They are hard to find in good condition!

I have the same design in my promaster! It’s just a 125 gallon tank, strapped to unistrut that’s screwed into the frame. More unistrut along the ceiling to hold 3 of my hose reels, and a big ass shelf completely left to right about 27 inches deep. I hate the builds with a giant wall or a build that makes servicing it difficult or some builds literally make you more inefficient if they aren’t simple and open, too focused on pretty design is pointless. It’s all about efficiency and serviceability.

I like this set up and have had it similar in a different van for years. I have learned what works and what doesn’t over the past few years and I’m currently working on a new skid set up. These pressure washer reels you see in this video have recently gave out and had built up rust inside the tube part. Im going with all retractable reels. The new skid design will be fully accessible and simple similar to the other skid mounts you see on other videos .

@@realdetail6447 sheeeiiiit as long as you build the new skid yourself you’ll save $1,200!! Post results in a new video whenever you do it!!

[@realdetail6447]

Yeah that’s why I’m building it myself. I’ll have less than $1k in the skid itself. It’s the new reels and equipment that cost a lot!

[@startingtech3900]

I have those crappy general pump reels I never got my going. It leaked all over. How do you have yours run a pump or gravity ?

[@realdetail6447]

@@startingtech3900 yes those reels suck, mine rusted inside the tube part and clogged up my guns, I’ve recently purchased new retractable reels. I’m working on a new setup now. I use a pump on each pressure washer even though they say it doesn’t need them on the kranzles

VERY NICE SET UP

[@realdetail6447]

Thank you!

I just got a van like this one. I'm going to start a mobile detailing business. What advice would you give someone who's new to the game of detailing?

[@realdetail6447]

Invest the money you make from the beginning to get to where you want to be. It’s ok if you don’t have a lot the detailing supplies or tools, just start off with the basic cleaners and tools and continue to invest and upgrade. Just focus on producing quality work. And I would say your first number one investment should be the advertising on your van, the van will be your number one advertising piece. make it big and bold enough so people can read and see it from across the street to get your information easy .

Nice setup What size water tank is that. My starter van is an Astro.

[@realdetail6447]

Thanks! It’s a 100 gallon. Astro vans are the perfect size for detailing in my opinion.

[@sirlayo]

Wow that's a very nice set up.. how long have you been in business for?

[@realdetail6447]

Thank you, this is the latest setup, planing on changing a few more things in the near future. we’ve been mobile for bout 8 years.

[@sirlayo]

Awesome! I'd like to see more content and customer service videos!

[@realdetail6447]

Metal frame supporting the plywood?? I have a GMC Safari so I’m looking to do a similar build. Just not sure how to Mount it for support

[@realdetail6447]

I actually welded angle iron across to the inner structure of the van and put wood across it. I also recently redid my set up to a skid mount system now so it’s completely different and much more efficient and organized. Check back soon for the new updated version!

[@JohnJerde]

Is that a fence post for holding your sprayers?

[@realdetail6447]

It is 4x4 pvc fence post

[@JohnJerde]

@@realdetail6447 that’s amazing. I was getting ready to buy one online

[@realdetail6447]

I am planing on updating the van again sometime around the end of summer and probably will get the actual bottle holders but the fence post work well!

[@Angedemiguarda]

Did you do it yourself because I’ve been detailing out of the same van and would like a nice.setup like yours.

[@realdetail6447]

Yes I did everything myself. I’m actually about to redo my whole set up again so stay tuned for the new video in a few weeks!
