I met Erin & John Beatty at SEMA when we coincidently happen to be at the same restaurant. They had been looking for the Aquatek Coatings crew to talk about bringing our products to their detail supply store. I liked their story and wanted to talk more about the hurdles they've jumped through just to open a brick and mortar store front.

I start off 2025 with a special collaboration episode with my good friend matt Arendt from Driven by Details Podcast. Matty and I sit down to take a hard look at the state of the industry - from the impact of private equity buyouts and what they mean for small businesses, to the importance of ongoing training and building the confidence to know your worth when selling a package. This is a conversation packed with insight, perspective, and actionable advice.

Tony Kiger posed a great question in Realm of Coatings a week or so ago and I've been thinking the same thing for a while. So here's the post "With all the coatings on the market, and the hype wearing off, detailers not promoting a brand as much, what will come next?

With vehicle owners buying coatings off ebay, amazon, autogeek and alike, and applying them themselves, how are you justifying the price still to this day? Are you lowering pricing? Adding more services? Performing a higher level of paint refinement? Etc."

Being invited to the Air Force One project was a huge honor and we were excited to see it all. The museum is a cool place to be with so much history in aviation. We grabbed Chris Metcalf right off the bat to talk to him about Flex's involvement in the AFO project pretty much since the 3401 came out. How being at AFO is good for the industry and the Flex will continue to support. Next up was Rod and Jody from RoadFS as we had a podcast smackdown. We discussed how events like this are great for the industry and growth for detailing business owners. Lastly we found Crisanto Aquino who was our crazy driver from the night before. Crisanto was the only Canadian mafia member working on AF1. This was his first podcast so he was a bit nervous but we made it fun for him.

David Rotenberg from Watershed Auto Car in Simi, CA messaged me and asked how to get on the show, so here we are. David started detailing in 2009 when he saw some guy wearing flip flops washing a car and thought, "I can do that!' Quickly he realized detailing wasn't so simple but fell in love with it and became very passionate for the industry.

RJ Wagner is the owner of WD detailing in Ohio and also has a very popular YouTube channel with over 600K subscribers. RJ and his partner put out a new barn find detail video every Saturday on their channel WD Detailing. With the popularity of YouTube channels like RJ's we got to see detailing on the small screen, with Dirty Old Cars. RJ talks about how and why he decided to start his channel and to tackle abandoned barn find cars. We talk about how they select the cars to film and how do they decide what level of detailing to do. RJ does these cars for free so we ask him how they manage the YouTube channel and the shop.

Sometimes when you're stuck on an idea you have to go to the well and ask friends for help. That happened for this episode and Joe Kimball suggested a great topic. Creating a business you can pass down to your kids, so they have something that's already thriving and they can continue to grow. Generational wealth is something that isn't sought after much these days, but it's what this great country was founded on. We talk about the different ways you can set your kids up to take over a business.

Well, the technical difficulties followed us back from Louisville. Tried to do a call-in show but shit happens. Instead, we just did a WOYM and by that we discussed SDC a little and also showed off the Kong Force One t-shirt design. We also talked about the craziness of Matt Rife and how Michelle thinks he could be her hall pass(lol). We talked about 'murica invading LeMans with Jimmy Johnson driving a modified NASCAR Cup car. The topic of smoked Canadian bacon also came up as we talked about the fires up north and how New York looked like an apocalypse.

The Southern Detailers Conference day 2 saw us getting our shit together and fixing the audio issues from day 1. I saw Phil Miranda from Miranda Detailing YouTube channel and asked him to take a seat. We talked to Phil about how he plans out his YouTube videos and does he prefer just filming videos or doing product reviews. Next up in the hot seat was Justin Labato who told us about how hungry he is in everything he does. He told us a little about his background and how it helped him navigate the detail industry. Then I told him to beat it and we had to talk to other people. Detailer of the Year winner Jerry Grant popped in next to make up for the terrible audio from day 1. We talked to Jerry about winning the award and what it meant to him. We also talked All Star cheerleading. Last up was probably the most influential conversation of the day, Jacquelin Evans who talked to us about carrying on her husband Chris Evans' passion with the detailers dictionary and his foundation.

Sorry for the low audio so much background noise makes it tough, but here's Southern Detailers Conference Day 1. Joel Lapalme joined us to let us know what's new with IGL and all the new products that will be coming down the pipeline soon. Karl Gamba was next in the seat and he didn't hold back on his thoughts about everyone having their own chemical line. Then we flipped the script from detail to football as we talked about fantasy football. Jacki Orlando stopped by to let us in on what's going on over at the Pro Wax booth and how she's becoming the rinseless wash queen. We finished off the day with Giancarlo Rengifo from Onyx and talked a little about how they turned SDC into EDC. G also talked about Onyx's new ppf film they're developing and how they were showcasing it in the booth.

I met Austin Featherston at the Creator Summit in Chicago when he came up and asked how he could get on the podcast? We chatted for a few mins and was great to meet a listener at an event like that. Austin started young like most detailers these days doing friends and family cars as he learned and grew his business. Moving from Arkansas to Illinois to be closer to his girlfriend, Austin started taking care of her father's car collection. Washing cars in the driveway wasn't going to cut it when winter came, so Austin found a shop he could work out of. After attending some training events at Chicago Auto Pros he was ready to improve his business. Austin hopes in the future he can help other detailers grow by showing him what worked for him.

It seems that reviews, referrals and returning clients are more important now more than ever. How do we get these 3 R's? CRM's are a big help of keeping track of your clients and being able to notify them of deals or when they should return. Building good relationships with your client will help you with all 3 as well. Doing a business training or selling class also can help you with the 3 R's. Our guests tonight know all to well how to answer the questions. Shawn Gervais with OrbisX and Luke Wilson of Wilson's Auto Detailing are her to answer these questions.

One of my favorite Renny Doyle quotes is "Stop thinking like a detailer and Start thinking like an Entrepreneur." A lot of times I think its hard to not think like a detailer, especially owner/operators more than owners with employees. Renny and Chris run a very successful training that teaches detailers the business side more than the detailer side of thinking. Renny also talks about different ways you can offset slow times with "seasonal" pricing and watching your overhead costs.

While at the creator summit in Chicago I had the opportunity to talk with Mike Schultz from Turtle Wax. Mike or Dr. Turtle as he's called had a great conversation about the chemistry that goes into different products. Mike also explained some of their new products like the headlight restore kit and the scratch removal kit. It was also interesting to learn that some products get started and then have to be paused for months and years do to the chemistry not being there, then when its figured out they can resume the project. One of the things I loved was Mike had no hesitation when it came to asking him what his "Fight song" would be.

At Creator Summit in Chicago I had the opportunity to sit down with Renny Doyle and Sydni Brae Gwinn. We are all detailing podcasters and yet couldn't be different from each other, so we talked about how we each have our own spin on it. This was a really fun show because there was no topic or agenda, we just talked about whatever we wanted.

Another episode from the creator summit event, this time I sat down with Jason Rose from Rupes and we discussed different polishing techniques. Jason went on to explain the difference between rotary polishing and DA polishing. We also talked about the thinning in paint from the factories and how we all will have to deal with that.

Chris Racana talks about preservation detailing with the idea that some clients don't want a full correction, but to just preserve the vehicle for as long as possible. We talk about what are the best ways to preserve the interior of the vehicle and the leather. Chris informs us that Dr. Beasley's has a leather "coating" that is breathable and not only will protect the leather from dye transfer and spills but can also be conditioned as well.

On this episode I sat down with Nick McGurk and Yvan Lacroix and we discuss why polishing paint is beneficial or detrimental to your vehicle's paint. Yvan and Nick talk about their theories on thinning paint and why the days of "heavy" correction may be behind us. The new saying on social media is "Shiney Scratches" and unfortunately that may be a reality for detailers going forward.

Thomas Mayer is another detailer from down under. After spending years learning computer coding Thomas started learning how to detail is own car after a bad job from a local detailer. As he learned how to detail he realized he enjoyed doing that so much more than working with computers. Thomas was lucky enough to gain that one client that ended up setting him up with plenty of work.

You all might remember Gray Scott from his earlier episode and from being an active member in a bunch of detailing groups. In 2020 when the TikTok craze happened Gray said "I'm a Peacock and I gotta fly!" and so he became the TikTok Peacock. So it's been a couple of years and we wanted to catch up with Gray and see what he's been up to and how the whole TikTok thing was going. With so many detailers wanting to be "social media famous" Gray gives us the real deal on just how hard that is.

Convenience isn't something that shouldn't be considered cheap. When you stop at the Convenience store most things are not the same price as a retail store. When you go to an oil change center it isn't cheap. Mobile detailing is a convenience and yet most mobile detailers are cheaper than shop based locations. It seems like mobile detailers don't follow the "convenient" store business model but follow the "fast food" business model of being cheaper than a restaurant. Jordan Eveland with Precision Auto Detailing Jax in Jacksonville, FL joins us to talk about the "convenient" pricing and where the mobile side of the industry is doing it wrong.

Kory Asher started cleaning cars at a young age in his driveway for extra cash.  During high school he started working in Auto Body shops and learned how to do painting, wet sanding and polishing.  After a 4-year stint in the Navy, Kory went back into the Auto Body field before finally leaving to start his own detail business.  After taking a huge gamble by using his mortgage money to learn ceramic coating, Kory's business quickly grew and thankfully that gamble paid off.  Kory has now grown his business to include multiple employees and a manager that is helping him spend some quality time with his family.

Jason is off playing Gilligan's Island, so Cam Scorey is filling in as co-host (God help us). Tonight, I want to ask the question, does speaking negatively about your competition, negatively affect your business?  We've all seen the FB post where a detailer will make a backhanded comment about why you should choose them.  It's usually the "They went somewhere cheaper" post.  Or even seeing them making posts exposing the other guy for where he messed up or didn't do the job right.  Call the hotline powered by Aenso North America at 689-619-2275

I met Yasir at Autogeek's Detailfest back in 2015 and we've remained in contact ever since.  It's always good to catch up with him at MTE or when I visit Atlanta.  It's been a long time coming to have him on the show and I'm glad I finally reached out.  Yasir started out in detailing looking for a way to make some extra money.  His first go around as a detailer, he would schedule with clients at local businesses and take their cars to the local self-serve car wash.  After a while he knew he needed to better himself and that's where the training came in.  After attending Renny Doyle's training, Yasir had the confidence he needed to understand his worth and thus increased his pricing to reflect.  Yasir has become one of the most highly recognized members in the Detail Mafia and has had the honor of working on the Air Force One project.

Barry Theal joins us as we ask the question, what would it take for the detailing industry to be regulated and do you think it should be or could it be? This question has many variables to it, and everyone might not think it's a good idea, but we still have to ask it.  With so many detailers complaining about how easy it is for just anyone with a bucket to get into this industry, maybe regulating it or making certifications mandatory might be the way to go.  On the flip side every one of us got into this industry, because we left a car wash or because we had a love for cleaning our own cars.  If a mandatory certification was required how many of us would be here today?  The IDA is an organization that detailers look to to help make those certified stand out more to the consumer. Some detailers feel that the IDA doesn't do the things they say, and they have complaints about that.  Barry did a great job helping us answer some of the questions about the IDA while still letting us know that they have their faults and are working on them.  While this is a question that will probably spark some controversy we hope that it gets people thinking.  Both sides of the argument need to understand that until we start working together and bridging the gap things will never change.

Chloe is a SB3installer/collaborator and owns Nice and Clean Detailing. She loves horses and started riding them when she was 4 yrs old.  She's travelled the world for competitions and even won world championships. Now she's one of those "Crazy Barrel Girls" as they say on Yellowstone. Her dad owns and operates multiple car washes and that's where Chloe got her start in detailing.  At 17 she was cleaning her friends' cars and making side money while in school.  After realizing she couldn't handle both college and running a business, she left school.  Chloe is 25 now and she is about to open her own touchless car wash to run alongside her detailing business.

The microfiber towel is probably the most vital tool to a detailer. Most detailers don't even know how to chose the right towel for the job. Ian Rammelkamp gives us a lesson in the makeup of a microfiber towel and how we can make the right selection for the job.

MTE day 2 was another crazy day filled with amazing guests.  We started the day talking to El Hajj Yasir Waqaar, who I met years ago at Detail Fest, and we've remained friends ever since.  Next up we had Kelly Harris and Justyna Brys who broke the news that they are dating and giving us the scoop.  Justin Labato and Rich Umbrell from Buff-n-Shine sat down next to tell us about their new revolutionary foam pads.  Jason Bruno took off, so I brought on Chris DiGiovanni to talk with Jacki Orlando.  Jacki was working the Pro booth and we got to ask her all about that.  After a quick lunch we met up with the History channel's newest TV star Jamie Buchanan who gave us a little taste of what we can expect when we get him on for a full-length episode in the near future.  Our buddy Dale Blankenship happened to be standing around, so we had him pull up a chair. We gave him a "Details after Dark" crash course on the loofah code, so he could be on the lookout when he goes to the Villages.   All weekend we were next to this lovely couple from Fieldd, so we invited Harrison over to give them a chance to discuss their software.  Next up was the Mad Chemist, John Hogg from Angelwax.  John talked about making ceramics and waxes live at MTE and to everyone's surprise we actually could understand him.  As the day wound down, we finished off MTE with Sydni Brae Gwinn and Alan Medcraf to catch up and recap on the weekend.  Closing out the episode and weekend with Sydni and Alan interviewing Jason and me.

It's day 1 of MTE and what an amazing day it turned out to be.  We started off with a bang having Jason Rose and Sarah Coleman-Lienhart from Rupes. Then we had Renny Doyle join us and he gave us some of that Renny wisdom and also let his guard down and got somethings off his chest.  Next we had Bill Martin join us to pick up his Paint Assassin of the Year and Paint Correction of the Year awards.  Josh Broffman and his employee Taj were up next to talk about their take on MTE and how they take care of business.  Alan Medcraf quickly jumped into the Vyper seat and proceeded to be the amazing guy he is, before stealing our Vyper chair ad taking it for a spin around MTE.  Derrick Copes sat down with us and was just awesome to hear him speak.  Derrick was also presented with the Paint Assassin Inspirational Award and immediately brought everyone to tears with how appreciative he was. William Lara came on and we talked about his growing detail supply store in Miami and what's it been like being nominated for an IDA award 4 times now, thankfully William finally won an award later that night.  We finally ended the day with Michael Milord who has an amazing story and tells about his obstacles he had to overcome and how he used a story he heard from Renny Doyle to push him.
