You are going to get Hot Pressure washer arent you? Where I work the detailing business is a HUGE business. My cousin pays 55 bucks just to wash one semi truck. But they also clean the engine bay with hot water its a must lifts up all of the mud with one pass.

Regency, that's a pretty good service for $125. Do you offer any other service for a lower price? Do you offer any kind of buffing service? Have you figured how much your chemicals/supplies will cost you per month? I personally would go with an open trailer as opposed to a close trailer. You can set up an open trailer with a tank, generator, pressure washer, shop vac, extractor and other supplies for under 5k depending on what type of equipment you get. Here in Texas we have to have a water reclaimation system to capture the wash water.
I plan on opening a detail business in the spring, I have to get some more training on buffing out swirls marks etc. I have seen cars where either the owner did his own buffing or paid someone with little or no experience and it was not pretty. Paint correction is no fun. Good luck with everything.

Yeah something lower would be a wash and clean cars-40 trucks-50 and yeah I do offer paint correction which would be around 200 and then the biggest is including undercarriage which is 325 and I've looked into that and I don't need it will carry one if customer requests one though thanks man oh I also do everything by hand it sucks

The reason I'm so low is so people will be drawn to my service versus other detainees with those prices doubled and back before I did it it made me mad how high the prices were and wanna treat people right
