    Ok guys, so I have been researching starting a mobile detailing business. I plan to only offer washes, interior details and one steps.


    I have read every thread on this forum, autopia, and the Adam's forum I could find in regards to mobile detailing.


    The thing I am confused with, is how much stuff do I actually need? I know for washing it's best to use the 2 bucket method with grit guards. I have read some about the foam cannons. Can you foam a car without using a pressure washer? My thought is that if I am advertising a hand wash, and show up with a pressure washer they will feel as if they could have done the same thing at the local coin wash.


    I guess what I am asking is if you had to start over today, with not a lot of money, and running it out of your car what would you purchase?


    I plan to detail only when I have power and water hookups available. I do have a Honda 1000 watt generator, but would rather not have to use it. I am not sure if it would run anything other then lights anyways for me.


    Thanks in advance for any help.
