How Detailing Got Overcomplicated
The Auto Detailing Podcast
Detailing used to be simple. Now it feels like a hype-driven, overcomplicated mess. In this episode, I’m breaking down how the industry got here—and how we fix it. Somewhere along the way, car care became more about foam shows and flashy bottles than actual results. New products drop every week, and detailers are told they need 15 different bottles just to wash a car. I’m calling BS on that. Thanks again for all the support and patience — it truly means a lot!

I’m here to create purpose-built products that save you time, simplify your process, and actually work. I’ll share why big brands can’t innovate, why I refuse to settle for “good enough,” and...
