Should’ve used the active VE52 I use it in my setup wit a 50 gallon water tank as well

[@richardvillanueva559]

No link to the reels brother

[@christianrodriguez5378]

Hey josh where can I get my water tank??

[@inkgenie9760]

Nice to see an actual usable set up that doesn’t cost a ton of money

[@daviddolezal1921]

Fans are wanting to know what hose reels are you using. Are these the high dollar ones or are they more budget friendly? Detail some vehicles and get back to us. Thanks. Love your content.

[@KingTheDetailer]

Harbor freight has them cheap you just have to convert one to a pressure washer hose , I did it to mine

[@chvnse]

That shelf is so clean man, good job.

[@JonathonS-x1g]

Awesome setup I'm going this way for my setup to. I'm trying to make it sample and not spend a lot. I thought about a hundred gallon water tank setup. I'm going to be using a 2014 Dodge caravan. I loss out on 2014 ford Transit connect van..

[@PrecisionMK]

I would love more detail how you built that shelf. I have a 2016 Ford transit connect and eventually want to build a shelf

[@CLopdx]

I am a former van upfitter. Be careful of the fuel tank towards the front of van behind the seats. These gas tanks are very expensive and there is very little clearance between the floor and the gas tank. Recommend plus nuts. Also watch the brake lines and wiring harnesses.

[@imjoshv]

Thanks so much for the advice!

[@nickevans3190]

Love your channel highly enjoyable and informative style 😊

[@stihlmanchainsaw8445]

May have missed it but see no links for the hose reels. Thanks for replying or posting.

[@johnneidert5777]

Glad to see you decided to keep it.

[@alexchechkin8802]

Thank you Josh. Great advice. I’d like to replicate your setup but in my SUV. As one of your followers I always appreciate the fact that you’re always thinking how to save money. Thats why I trust your advice you save us so much time and guess work! Keep up the great work!

[@cal88usa]

Aswome mobile car detailing set up, it’s clean and simple. It’s very organized and everything took looks easy to get to for the job.

[@danielalexandersimo]

wow just wow. ive seen clean and cute set ups. this set up is PERFECT

[@cliffrobbins7421]

nice Josh were from NY and planning to do mobile car wash, your video will help us....

[@indetailcarcaresolutions3770]

This is brilliant Josh. When I can justify buying a van specifically for my detailing, I would copy this minus the water tank and generator as my clients always allow me to use their power and water. Keep the great stuff coming. Lloyd

[@NewCool001]

I’d recommend water filtration if you don’t want to carry a water tank. Using filtered water/ deionized water is the best.

[@14sgs]

I have learned a ton from your channel. I'm just a basic dude, looking to keep his gear clean. I'm all geared up thx to your knowledge. I haven't even opened everything yet. I'm San Diego and sure your near, I will look you up for a detailing as a thank you. PS 69 ford! Sweet ride. My 69 Torino convertible had a 390 . She lives in Palm Springs now....... Keep up the awesome info.

[@sauceymeatwad2856]

Pretty simple clean but still have everything

[@chrisrefaei]

Thanks for the tour! Super clean and simple setup! Going to start detailing services in a year from now. Been detailing and loving it since I was 16 which was 16 years ago.

[@leonkienow6830]

Josh, I don't see a link for the reels you are using in your van. I understood you to say you would provide a link. Thanks! Good job on van, simple and effective!

[@Mrckeys007h]

Can you do a video on your green water filter tank at the corner of your garage.... awesome video,too

[@MJ-fw3rr]

Love your videos dude. Just having a beer and hangin out. Great content! Great conversation.

[@rickyrice7376]

Great set-up. And as you said, definitely efficient .

[@imjoshv]

Thanks ricky

[@ctt4811]

Great change of pace with this vid. Awesome efficiency with that limited space

[@imjoshv]

Thank you!

[@MiguelMartinez-yb7dm]

nice setup with the hose reels brilliant?

[@ihsanrazali]

Really appreciate your time for doing the van tour!!!

[@billpitts1034]

Thanks for showing your van. That gave me some great ideas for my mobile trailer.

[@kathy1256]

Very informative video! Great job of organizing everything in such a way that makes the job go smoothly and efficiently. Very impressive👍

[@imjoshv]

Thank you!

[@markrhoades2136]

Great job looks just like my girl. What a great simple setup. Plus you are keeping the weight low. Save on gas.

[@lanceheuer8218]

Thank you for what you are doing. I am learning a lot watching you.

[@ksduathlete]

Budweiser distributors coming after that pallet!

[@dan-cq1ho]

For the connect to transfer water to the pressure *the hose* what material did you use to build the hose with clamps

[@sauceymeatwad2856]

I would recommend a sliding mount for the generator I just bought one and surprisingly not too bad like 150 but I have a 3500 watt pred

[@imjoshv]

Awesome! Where did you get yours?

[@willytrimble3453]

KILLER video. answered alot. I was doing some research in that pressure washer as it is the one I have. Could not get an answer if it would pull from a water tank. THANK YOU

[@paulsavage100]

Hi there, I love how simple and clean this is set up compared to some. Can I ask how much its cost for the generator and the pressure washer please ? Are the magnets able to hold a decent weight ? I think there a great idea.

[@94muddertrucker]

Generator is Predator 3500 inverter generator from Harbor Freight. Pressure washer I believe you may be able to find at Home Depot. Check description for links to get pricing or look them up at the stores that I put on here. Prices have changed so much and still changing from pandemic. Generator is absolutely amazing and worth it, very quiet! He could have started it and kept talking on camera no problem. I have not used that pressure washer as I went with AR630 TSS. Hope this helps!

[@alexchechkin8802]

Josh what was the reason you went with AR630 TSS? Thanks!

[@robertrobertson5120]

Great rehab/build job... super functional van!

[@eddiegarcia9689]

Great content! Curious what is the customer flow % between mobile vs in shop? Any plans to expand in terms of adding more detailers to your team?

[@glxbe]

are the two stacked milk crate things the Rigid Pro Box from Home Depot? I can't tell for sure

[@APrawks]

That's what I was wondering.

[@SauceE.428]

Can you go into more detail about the generator and how it powers all your machines? Thanks a ton!

[@betolopez7515]

I see you don't use a water pump, your pressurized water machine always works until the last 10 gallons of that in your water tank? because I use bomb and I would like to cancel it

[@tjmarx]

"...and keeps that, umm, what do you call it? ... Gravity..." 🤣

[@Sam_Saraguy]

Nice setup, thanks for the tour.

[@imjoshv]

Thanks for watching!

[@di.bollati9536]

Nice job!! I was planning to give a free first wash to gain customers if they see the service I give.. what you guys think

[@shanepowell4720]

Looks great and glad you kept it.

[@deviannettedejesus1795]

Love the content. What kind of hose reels do you have ? Did not see them in your description.

[@knottssonasty3603]

Very nice setup sir. Really enjoy the videos.

[@onebadasian]

No canopy for washing cars on sunny days? I hate washing cars in direct sunlight.

[@Dtorresolo]

Are you still running the same set up to this day or have you change the design on it ? Would love to see an update on ur mobile detailing set up !

[@crisworkizer]

Nice job Josh! The Van looks good brother like to see your chemical vid and see what your using. Just a DYI, but I use different brands you can't get caught up in these big chemical companies. My tire cleaning is Super Clean at $ 8.00 a gallon and dulited. No Automotive chemical company can touch that and get the same cleaning done. Thanks brother!

[@imjoshv]

Super clean is fantastic! Here’s a vid I made on the chemicals in my van Best products to DETAIL A CAR | Best car detailing chemicals Made Easy kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqXOeatsbZyKirM

[@Lg1969]

Josh, you mentioned your air pressure and pressure washer REELS but you didn't list them and can link them? please help thank you

[@djabe1992]

Outstanding van 💪👏 Everything looks great 👍

[@EminentAutoDetail]

Nice tour! This is a video I had asked for recently so definitely appreciate the content!

[@imjoshv]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ManuelFernandez-ex5iv]

Cant wait to see the products brotha 🤙🏽 you do some clean work 😎

[@JuanMedina-ml1qx]

How many vehicles can you potentially watch with that 50 gallon

[@figicopfn1432]

Can you show the water tank setup

[@stijnpeek6864]

How is the pressure washer connected to the water tank? Like what do you need for that? Pressure washer, a hose and then just a hose to the water tank?

[@chadwilliams8697]

Hey I’m trying to find the short hose you have on the pressure washer hose reel to connect the Uber flex to so it doesn’t have a crazy bend

[@florinvoicufv]

So u don’t need a pump from the water tank to water pressure?

[@94muddertrucker]

What reels are used? I like the locks. I don't see in the description. Thanks and good set up. I use same vac and love it!!! I'm hooking up 50ft hose reel for vac right now.

[@TransformationDetail]

Great setup! Especially for the time and cost

[@imjoshv]

It really is!

[@watkinstv_13]

How many vehicles can you do with the 50 gal tank?

[@TheRealityDealerTV]

How many inches did you cut the 2x2 for the shelf?

[@VIM97]

Wfere did you get black milk crate locking boxes from ? model and serial number please...Thanks

[@sergiorobles6819]

Great video and great set up an ideas . where you get the black rigid containers ? And plug connect? Those are real nice

[@davestewart9146]

Really nice setup Josh 👍😁

[@imjoshv]

Thanks! 👍

[@charlespaul6725]

Where your hose reel link? I know you can get it off MTM or general something

[@1976mingo]

Very neat and clean set up. Thumbs up

[@imjoshv]

Thanks!

[@kevinburrell4239]

Great video! I don’t see a link for the reels and 1 or 2 of the links go to different items

[@gustavo66bueno]

how many cars can you wash using a 50 gallon water tank?

[@QuarterZipBro]

Very cool setup. I am a fan!

[@imjoshv]

Thanks!!

[@HEMi1995]

If you only have one bucket, what do you use for wheels?

[@bobb8423]

Tell me good sir how do you get a air compressor to start with that generator?

[@soyunazteca]

Were you buy your dressing for de tires You give adress for store dressing please and I'm like your videos good 👍

[@TonyLing-h3l]

Hey Josh. Great video.....I'm looking to start up my own detailing business in South Carolina. Where did you get your water tank?

[@ItsCX]

I love detailing cars and I’ve been thinking about starting my own business. Any advice? Love the video, by the way! Keep up the great work!

[@corage4885]

cant see anything where you linked your hose reels that you use, please let me know

[@mariaacosta7428]

So the lower psi on a pressure washer , you suggest to go with a bigger orifice or a 1.1 mm ? Reason I say that I use a 1.2 gpm 2100 psi pressure washer . Also I use the foam cannon that I purchased from your site MJJC. Just trying to figure what I’m doing wrong or if I need to upgrade the pressures washer . First time use it didnt foam like video I seen and got me interested in the foam cannon .

[@MagicFalcon54]

I don’t see the link for the hose reel

[@tuck3r53]

Found it --> www.amazon.com/Apache-99023586-Steel-Pressure-Washer/dp/B000PDNMO8

[@ToddW.]

@imjoshv how did you get the carbon panels behind the bottle rack?

[@stihlmanchainsaw8445]

The new Ryobi like the one on your van set up -- does have the total stop. What nozzle are you using to increase the GPM. Also how does it work with the foam cannon?

[@wardbeavers3354]

Did use a pump or just the pressure washer?

[@youngmogul82]

Where did you get your hose reels from ?

[@henderalvarado366]

I’m trying to get info on the reels?

[@Sanic-px9of]

Where you set your duty rags

[@michelvinson7200]

Nice set up

[@jmarcum75]

Just recently got a foam cannon and small box type pressure washer. Love using it to clean my personal vehicles. Been looking for brush recommendations especially for wheels. What’s your go to brushes?

[@mathewlang5749]

I have a concern to share with you about your comment for the topic of Customer Key Placement. Is there a high chance someone would snatch the keys if they were just hanging there? Or is it no higher of a risk then having someone steal the car at gun point? I always put security in place to stop lazy thieves or thieves of opportunity vs trying to stop a pro (who are more skilled then average). Perhaps having a lockbox in the van to lock the customer keys in while working on their car? There is no perfect solution but hanging in reach of a kid walking past the van is a little extreme too me.

[@DuckSlayer12]

Hey josh i notice you have the same pressure washer i use and same generator but when i use it my pressure washer overloads my generator does that every happen to you?

[@CCxKiller13]

2:27 to start the video

[@bwnusephoto]

I didn’t see it listed in your equipment section. What hose reel do you use for the pressure washer? Every hose reel I’ve looked at seem to have pretty poor reviews. I’d like to get one to make life a bit easier, but I’m kind of hesitant to purchase one because I can’t seem to find one with a decent review.

[@eagonchill10]

Awesome setup! What kind of hose reels are you using? Not seeing a link for them

[@henderalvarado366]

Where is it? Reel info? Anyone?

[@That_Basketball_Guy]

I’m thinking in a couple years of doing a car wash and detailing business and I was wondering what you use an air compressor for?

[@HEMi1995]

A Tornador air tool. Makes cleaning interiors (especially carpets) so much easier

[@Ara_Milan]

josh i have a question in the cold (frost) my pressure washer and hoses are getting frozen or struggling . is that normal for mobile detailers.

[@Skrillakris]

Do u think the 1900 psi ryobi would be fine to run in a similar van setup

[@hulkspointofview2280]

Sick setup

[@imjoshv]

Thanks!!!

[@emanuelrios4011]

Do you have any problems running your mytee extractor with the predator 3000

[@Flatfourdetailing]

What do I look up in my local area for someone to build a detailing rig for me? Thanns

[@trailrunner4822]

Nice set up ! What do you think about one wash mit and just rinsing the mit with the pressure washer before dipping it back in the soap bucket ? I know being mobile you wanna save water , but just wanted to get your thoughts on it . I myself just use one bucket with multiple microfiber towels cause it is faster .

[@rhernandez266]

I like the set-up! How many cars can you detail with that 50 gallon tank?

[@jeffparker4314]

Great videos !! I really appreciate your time !! What hose real are you using with that Uber flex hose ? I already ordered the hose but I can’t find a hose real.

[@ssclassof2000]

Thanks for the tour. Which reel are you using for the pressure washer and does it affect the psi or gpm much?

[@ramonmartinez6102]

Where did you get the water tank?

[@oscarochoa2223]

Hi Josh thanks for your videos! One question, where can I get those water and air hose reels?
