Nissan Cube Mobile Detail Setup

So, I took some time tonight to get a bunch of stuff out and show everyone how I load my Cube for mobile details. I took just a couple pictures of the cube unloaded, then made some videos showing what I bring with me and how I pack it.

This is in response to quite a few people asking how I fit everything I need in the tiny Cube. So if you care, take a look!

This first video goes over how I transport everything I need for a wash and wax. I apologize in advance for the shaky cam look.



This second video adds in more of the stuff I would need for a correction detail



This video shows me starting to load up the cube.



And this final video sums everything up. I apologize for the sound, I had the phone right next to my face not sure how much sound the mic would pick up, and I had just run up and down the stairs a few times so I do sound like I'm about to die. If it's an issue for you, just turn down the volume...lol. Im the MAN



Here are a few still pictures of the Cube if you wanted to see how it looks empty.







I think that about does it. Thanks for looking, and if you have any questions feel free to ask.

 

Great job, well thought out. I know it is always a work in progress as time goes, but great job. I had one detailer working out of a Smart Car. He was a waterless wash detailer, but it works. I have a Fat Max for my interior repair stuff. It hold everything. Even my small compressor. Good tool!

 

Awesome!!

Where did you get that carpet brush for the polisher? I need to get one those stat.

Looks great bro thanks for a great idea.

 

Those carpet vrush attachments for the DA are all over. Just do a quick google search. I know CG has some.

As gor the OP i know i was one who asked about the cube and im really impressed. That makes me want to sell my van. So you have a fixed location as well? That's got to ve real nice. Foxed locations are the way to go so you can vontrol the environment around you.

As for the matte vlack vinyl wrap, that looks damn good too. You've got a hood thing going .

 

Just ordered them from CG. Can't wait to use it.

Glad to hear you ordered some of those attachments.

 

Very cool setup! I didn't know those Cubes got great gas mileage.

Where did you get that pick n pull foam? And where did you get those bottles and sprayers?

 

wow, I love your car. Did you paint your wheels yourself?

 

Thanks man. I put a little effort into it, and it has paid off several times over. I never have to worry if I'm forgetting something now. And that is nut detailing out of a Smart Car! LOL

Thanks man. This one was from Autogeek I think.

Thank you!

Thanks man. I have a fixed location...my house...for now. I do about 70% of my work out of my house and the other 30% is mobile. I don't love doing mobile work, but to stay in business it's something I've got to do. So this way it's a little easier for me.

Thanks! The Cube will do 38mpg loaded down on the highway, assuming I'm not doing a lot of stop and go. Around town it drops off to around 33-34, but it's still good enough for me considering a big van would probably be under 20mpg. The pick and pull foam I got from a Pelican case distributor. I can't remember which one, but a quick google search should bring up a bunch of options. At some point I would like to custom cut a foam insert to go in there, but I just haven't gotten around to it.

As for the bottles I got them from US Plastics. here http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=22992&catid=750. The sprayers I got from here http://www.midwestbottles.com/index.php?p=catalog&parent=120&pg=1. All in al each bottle and sprayer combo only ended up costing me a little over a dollar each, and after 6 months of heavy use none of them have broken or leaked.

Thanks man. Yes I painted the wheels myself. It was very simple, but I'm just not sure I'm in love with the look. It is attention grabbing, but it looks a little cartoony to me somethings. Also it makes the wheels a pain to clean since I'm always worried I'm gonne rub the paint off since it's the Plasti-Dip stuff.

 

Thanks for posting the videos. It is nice to see how others organize their mobile stuff.

 

Nice work. I'm assuming your mobile customers are providing water and electric?
I'd like to setup a smaller vehicle to maximize gas mileage.

 

That looks awesome.
