Hi All,
I need to do some urgent homework on what all equipments are needed to open a simple water wash bay.
As I had mentioned on the other thread about an apartment's water wash opportunity, I am likely to get a similar one from another source. However the requirement is a bit different.
What they need on a daily basis:
1. Plain Water wash (only exteriors & no engine bay) and wipe it dry.
2. Clean door sill areas, clean door mats
What I think I can do:
Everyday Basis: Charged once in a month (approx 450)
1. Plain Water wash (only exteriors & no engine bay) and wipe it dry.
2. Clean door sill areas, clean door mats
Once in a week: Included in the monthly charge above
1. Plain Water wash (only exteriors & no engine bay) and wipe it dry.
2. Clean door sill areas, clean door mats
3. Dry Vacuum the floor and boot space
Once a month/ as per demand: Charged seperately (Approx. 1000)
Also I can do the following parallely
What equipments do I need?
My assumption is as below:
1. High pressure Water compressor with 10meter hose
2. Bulk quantity of MF cloth
3. Shampoo bottles - 1litre x 5bottles
4. Tyre polish - 5litres can
5. Air compressor - I have it.
6. Buffing machine - I have it
I need advise/suggestions on the following
1. Which brand car shampoo is VFM and should not damage/dull the paint on cars
2. Is the belt driven water pump reliable to wash 50 cars daily?
3. Where do we get these L angle, Split end type hoses for the compressor?
4. Compressor - Cost and brand
5. Is a 3HP water compressor enough to do this task?
General doubts:
1. Will washing car everyday result in fading of paint/ chipping?
2. How do we clean the MF cloth?
3. Can the MF cloth be reused only after drying?
4. Anything I am missing out in this whole text above?
More info:
If they accept my proposal, I will be starting the job as a single person doing everything till I find someone to assist me.
If they like my work, I can get access to another 50cars in the next month too. For that I will have to probably set up another unit in that block of the apartment.
Total cars to be washed before 8am everyday = 50
Work Timings - My choice is 8pm to 12pm or 4pm to 8am
Water is supplied by the apartments and is free
Electricity too would be supplied by the apartment, yet to discuss about the cost
Need your inputs and any shop reference where I can get a good quote for the equipments.

- Offer a Car detailing service where cleaning is done using proper foam, then waxing is also done, basic interior cleaning, foam cleaning for seats and floor carpet and diesel wash for engine bay.
Also I can do the following parallely
- Repaint wheel caps, sell a few perfurmes etc
- Towing service to nearest garage in case of any breakdowns - charged very nominally
- Free jump starts, if battery is dead (only within the apartment premises)
- Set up a small Cleaning bay in the basement of the apartment, drive the cars to the wash bay, clean and park it back where ever it was
