I tried to start a mobile car wash business with a friend. It all didnt go well so we just split up without much time and money wasted. Later I learned that he fell for the Tai Lopez meme. Phew.

Dude I did this exact thing and I was making at least $500 a week in cash. Some weeks I made about $800.

I put flyers around nice neighborhoods, used Nextdoor and Facebook. I usually got 2 or 3 cars a week. I would come to their house. I just needed to use their hose and an outlet for my vaccuum cleaner. I did a full detail inside and outside for $200. or $250 if it was an SUV. It was expensive but I knew all the little tricks to getting everything clean.

Sorry man. I'll post my flyer if you're interested.

No I found something more lucrative.

But people still call me about it to this day. It's a need that's going unfulfilled and someone out there could be making $20+ per hour cleaning cars if I could download my knowledge into their head.

Well you need soap, sponge, some microfiber towels, a vaccum cleaner, little steam cleaner, some toothbrushes, a bucket. some car wax, 3m scratch remover, interior cleaner, leather conditioner.

Basically $300 worth of stuff. Then you clean the fuck out of the inside and outside of their vehicle I used the toothbrush on the small parts of the inside of the vehicle to get them clean. all fabrics got the steam cleaner. That 3m stuff will take anything off the paint. Then wax is. tire shine the tires. Take before and afters and use them for marketing.

AMA if u want.

I'm a damn good floor cleaner, but what you explained about your side job intrigued me.

You mentioned something about tips and tricks to getting everything clean in your vehicles. Are you willing to elaborate on those tips and tricks?

What about what you are currently doing? How did cleaning lead you into the job you're in now?

I'm going to start doing this in London. I'll increase the prices obviously.

>Then you clean the fuck out of the inside and outside of their vehicle

can you explain more detail about the outside part? i don't want to fuck up someones paint.

can you explain the logistics of how a job would go? do you need access to electrical outlets/water outlets? do you need to ask the customer anything? what are the pitfalls to avoid?
