Two things I'd like to say: firstly, your videos are top notch and it is obvious you put a lot of time and effort into them. Secondly, thank you for addressing the negativity when people ask for help. As you say, it is very detrimental to the person asking and there is absolutely no need to be so negative. Unfortunately, there seem to be a lot of people out there who aren't happy unless they are putting other people down - I've left Facebook as a result of that. It seems to me that you cannot express an opinion online without somebody taking delight in shooting you down in flames. Keep up the good work and more power to your elbow.👍

Valeting is one of the few things that put my mind at ease because i have a clear goal and no distractions. Nothing worse than a detail snob!! Your a top bloke!

@@epicautomotivedetailing - It was your Ultimate Price Guide video - which was really great and extremely useful. 🤩 I didn’t have any kind of intentions when clicked on it, just the thumbnail and the title got me curious and wanted to hear your thoughts... I mean I am not setting a business up at the moment - because of the current climate that we are experiencing nowadays. 😊 I am not a detailer (despite of that some of my viewers think that), I am just making my videos as a hobby and passion, to make videos what I always wanted to watch (or kind of...), asking friends for their cars and cleaning them for free, just for the videos; it makes them, my wife and I happy. I just love cleaning cars. Can’t help it. It’s coming from my heart and started doing it when I was only a few years old little boy. I am a full time bus driver right now (that’s why I can’t produce lots of videos, due to the lack of free time), but one day I’d love turn my passion into a full time business and that’s the reason why your video got me curious. 😊 Also I had many people’s interest in the past, they wanted to get their cars done by me, but some thought I can get the cars done in 1-1,5 hours and get those results - because “my video was 30 minutes long”; or had those people who wanted to spend very little money and get the results, also get more and more, and so much more, 2 years protection, wheel coatings, scratch removals, dent removals, window coatings, etc... Basically you explained everything properly and you’ve experienced everything - sadly! 😅 I just said to them similar things that you said - if they want to pay that much, they can find someone else to do the job, as I am not willing to give my name for something which is not matching my own expectations of my own work, that level of detail/service what I’d expect from myself and the valeters by Tesco/Asda and those famous guys “down the road” would happily wash&hoover their cars in 20 minutes for £20. It was so nice to hear you believe in the same! 🤩 I am hoping that things will get better and improve a lot very soon, I’ll have more time to work on cars and videos, my channel will start growing as more people will discover it and I believe one day will be my day! 🤩

Absolutely spot on there at the end. I like using a drying blade on my cars. But the big boys ripped me a new one for using it and say it scratches your paint. Iv used it for years and I honestly can't see any issues that it's caused. Do you recon you could do a video on this subject?
@epicautomotivedetailing Жыл бұрын
Ok so to be honest it will potentially cause scratches. That's just a fact but it's on a microscopic level. So over time yes it will ruin the cars paint. However not everyone values their cars in the same way. For example I have an old s max. No way would I ever worry about how I clean it because it's just an old run around car. So sadly a few members of detailing groups laugh because they just like to make others feel small. I see it daily.

I used the Poundland snow form today, and have to disagree with your findings. I found it to do a good job I used my pressure washer and sponged over it and the results were pretty good the windows came up gleaming and the paintwork was Streak free with a nice shine. Also I've used there back to black spray for 5 yes now and always found it to be good well complaints with it it lasses a good few washer. It's better than the turtle Wax black in flash.
@epicautomotivedetailing3 жыл бұрын
Fair play my friend glad you liked it. I mean I shouldn't complain it costs a quid and in theory it's not a snow foam but high foaming shampoo so the biggest issue was the confusion it may cause. I love the foam interior cleaner 👌

Yourself and many others on here have given me a lift during last couple of years.

I'm really sorry to hear that. I think Facebook is more toxic than the majority of other platforms. Sadly detailing has become very argumentative within the community.

I used to use lower grade products from the likes of the aforementioned company both when I was a weekend warrior and when I was professional. After all, you're not going to use top grade products on the beaten up old car that Mrs Jones ( other names are also available ) only drives to the shops. As long as the products do a reasonable job and keep your overheads down, they're acceptable for low grade use! Also, thanks for the point about the cyber bullying. People starting out and pulling themselves off the floor of redundancy etc need a hand up, not know all criticism. Keep up the good work 👍
