You two are such a huge inspiration to me and my wife. One day when my detailing business isn't a side hustle but a fulltime business I hope that my wife and I can work together like this!

[@callisautodetailing]

Way to go Phil

[@jeffreyrobert9460]

Using a drying aid to help remove the sealant is an interesting tip that I’m definitely going to try Phil. Thanks for posting

[@shealaking8557]

LOVE the Stoner's trim shine! Use it on my wheel liners, mud flaps, front valance, running boards and floor liners. Running boards and liners get wiped down after a couple minutes dwell time, just to knock off the slippery. Works well. Great job as always Phil and Jess! Informative and enjoyable to watch. Thanks!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Totally! Thanks!

[@richardseem7948]

yet another awesome video/content/product review good friend. as always u made some great points.

[@phoenixmobiledetailing6787]

Another excellent video and breakdown of products. And Little hand! Yes! LMAO! Love it. I really enjoy the Two the max wax. It's been on my personal truck for about 2 months now and im loving the maintenance washes. I've been using spray 9 on tires lately, it really pulls out the browning. As always thanks for the tips and tricks!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks man!

[@thedetailspot]

Man, this thing had some funk in the cracks. Great video Phil.

[@MirandaDetailing]

🤣 sure did! 😎👍🏼

[@ddautodetailing]

Looking great already!

[@TripleGAutoDetailing]

Epic video Phil. I have adopted your "process" and getting great results!! 💎 Appreciate everything you and the wife offer to the detailing community 🙏 Stay well my friend. Triple G 😎

[@404notfound.....]

Mazda 3 looks amazing!! Agreed, as long as it looks great there happy.

I’m doing rince less wash right now on a Mini Cooper weekend wash

[@fortmillautospa2023fortmill]

Not dirty lite dust on the mini copper

[@en1254]

I don't to get to long winded here with my comment but I have adapted so many of your techniques... It's made detailing so much easier with real world expectations... I especially agree with the rinseless wash... There is a time and place for it... Based on on so many factors... Great video Phil!

[@MirandaDetailing]

That's Awesome to hear! Thanks for sharing!

[@davidjarrell6159]

Great job and video!!! I personally enjoy using Jay Leno products!! Keep up the great work!!!!

[@barrybij8079]

Phil, you made a comment in the vid, We are not washing cars, we are detailing... Its something that while watching other channels is not mentioned and it should, I feel there is a distinction between the two...

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Yeah that’s true. We no longer do cheap $25-$50 car washes. We loose money that way. That’s why I specifically separate the two.

[@alanadad8583]

Phil, I really appreciate your practical approach! I tried your method last weekend with superclean 1:4 with water and followed it with a foam gun and shampoo in a bucket and it worked great! We had done a road trip to Montana and there were bugs everywhere. I did have to use a dedicated bug product (3d) to dissolve the stubborn bug guts in a few places and it worked well. One thing I have been using to finish during drying is the ethos d3fy as a drying aid and it just gives it that little extra finish. Thanks again for the knowledge!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks! That’s awesome to hear! Keep it up man!

[@hilarioperez7216]

I wish we had a shop like yours out here in Florida I’m very picky with my vehicles when it comes to cleaning that I do it myself when there’s time. But you guys are awesome in your services. Thank you for your great videos.😎

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks so much!! 😎👍🏼

[@audieconrad8995]

Good vid guys! Glad to see you use the TW MAX WAX. I don't think that stuff overall gets the love it deserves. It is excellent!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks! I know right?! It’s awesome stuff!

[@millerdetailing4176]

Another great video Phil filled with tons of information and little hands 🤚 😂.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks man! 🤣

Good morning Phil Awesome video What’s your coffee of choise

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hey man! Atomic coffee this morning!

[@joshmacveagh7714]

Hi phill, was wondering if you could guide me how to figure out how to price for detailing? Also and not to have to much choices for customer just simple and easy for them to understand. Also how to learn to be more efficient on your details. I live in wi if that helps. Thank u . Much love

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. That’s a lot to go over and can’t really be explained in a few sentences. Basically keep your services simple. Check out website and feel free to use it as a guide for your services. As far as efficiency, that just comes with time. Don’t just copy of follow what you see everyone doing. Only do what you customer is laying you to do and what the vehicle needs. Try not to go over board and do things unnecessarily. People on social media make up a lot of rules that are arbitrary, meaning they say you have to use iron remover EVERYTIME or do a paint correction before coatings EVERYTIME. Thats ridiculous. never do a paint correction before a coating UNLESS you have discussed it with the customer and that’s what they really want to pay for. Once you start realizing that, running a detailing business is very different then what you see guys doing on social media. I hope that helps.

[@Mdetailing]

Dear Phil check your mainpage website on the PC layout ..it looks something Wrong with the fonts i dint know.. Mobile layout looks ok... Keep up great video again

[@MirandaDetailing]

Oh no! Thanks man. I’ll fix it

[@neilwalker5041]

The transformation on the Mazda was sweet as the paint was moldy and dirty and ended up looking glossy and new. Rinseless washes are great for maintenance washes but this car was covered in dirt and mold. I was surprised by how thick the foam was on the car from a wash and wax product. The code works great at car supplies but I do not get free shipping on orders over $100 when I use the code. I stick with the code because your videos are so informative and I want to give back. Thank you for the video.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks man! Oh that’s weird. The free shipping was working for others. I’ll try to get that fixed.

[@xSnakeEyes86]

What do you do for wheel wells? on cars you can't see much, but on SUV's or trucks they are more exposed. I'm looking for a better brush to use.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. I like to use a brush like this and dedicate it to tires and wheels only. Then you can use a good tire dressing to apply on the plastic wheel wells.

[@moneyparhar]

Another great video. As DIY guy that love to wash cars. Def great. I see u have mini split as ac and heat unit for garage. How do perform in winter if u using as them for heat. I had oil heat in my house here in NY. Oil prices more than doubled and I switched to mini split made for cold climate. This coming winter will be mine first winter for mini splits.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks!! Yes it’s a mini split! It’s been awesome both for heat and ac for the past two years. The ac takes a while for it cool down becasue the heat and humid is so intense. But for heat it way better and more efficient.

[@moneyparhar]

@@MirandaDetailing Thanks Phil🙏

[@kimnewling5728]

Cool video. Hi wife

[@Legendsneverdie877]

Thank you for the video. I admittedly have very little experience with drying aids - the only one I think I have ever used is a now discontinued product from Dodo Juice called Time to Dry. I guess I just felt like there was more streaking, and the possibility of product buildup in my drying towels making them less absorbent. Have you noticed that issue with Evaporate? Plus 9 times out of 10 I’m doing something to the paint after a wash anyway, be it a quick detailer, spray wax, or spray on rinse off type product (like McKee’s 37 Hydro Blue Pro or Hydro Graphene), so I like to avoid “product stacking.” Your thoughts on this? Also, I agree with you 100% on the whole rinseless wash thing. I know there are some detailers who absolutely swear by it, like Yvan Lacroix and Garry Dean, but I don’t think you can absolutely substitute for a traditional wash. It is nice to have as an option when needed though.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Thanks. Some drying aids would kinda clog the drying towels sometimes, but using the Rags to Riches cleaner has made a big difference now, the towels come out cleaner and not clogged. I'm also not concerned about stacking products because as long as my customer's vehicles are beading and sheeting and staying clean longer, that's all that matters to me and them. 😎👍

[@RL-ju9ye]

Thanks, Miranda team! - do you all still use the marolex foamers in your process? For wheels or anything?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Yeah we do. I have the foamer and sprayer version and use them still.

[@johnishac3916]

I just got csl by Gtechniq in a 30 ml bottle would it be enough to cover an f150 or bigger car like a Tahoe? Love your videos by the way!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Oh Yeah that should be enough. Just remember to not over apply the coating on the applicator and you will be fine. or if you are concerned about that get the coating savers. bit.ly/3c2mijl. Use code miranda10 for 10% off

[@johngallo7383]

Question. I use a Ceramic Wax on my SUV. Can i use a product like Radiant to help ease the removal of the wax? Cause my shoulders hurt for 2 days after trying to remove the product lol. Thanks! Love the vids btw!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Yes you can use any quick detailer to help remove the wax. Water is best we have found since it reduces any smearing. But give it try and see how it goes.

[@johngallo7383]

@@MirandaDetailing Great! Will do.

[@peted7687]

Phil what type of chemical would you use on glossy black rims to remove iron?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. For black glossy wheels using an iron decon wheel cleaner is best kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHyWhZylo79nbrM

hey quick question miranda. love the pressurewasher and handle attachment youre using. is there anyway i can use my entry level 1800psi Sunjoe electric pressure washer and convert it to the hose and handle youre using? can you please link the items to convert it? please and thjanks

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Yeah you should be able to find the right fittings to do that. you may have to purchase a few adapters to see which ones fit. start with this and see how it works. amzn.to/3gM2un5

[@dezcanso1540]

@@MirandaDetailing so those adapters, then purchase the gun and hose you use from your affiliate links and put them all together? thanks :)

Yes…but they may or may not fit, but start with that. You may need to figure out which adapter sizes you need.

Our pollen here in Kelowna, BC is yellow. It’s from the Spruce and Pine trees. In spring and early summer when its at its worse it’s particularly annoying. When the wind blows it’s like a yellow cloud coming off the trees. 😡
