4 Lies the Detailing Industry Doesn't Want You to Know


Listen Later

The detailing world is full of hype, myths, and straight-up lies. Today, I'm exposing 4 of the biggest ones that brands and influencers don't want you to know.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why big brands don't always mean better chemistry (and what they're really spending money on).

  • How the industry uses extra steps and "systems" to sell more products instead of getting you better results.

  • The truth behind "5–10 year protection" claims (and why most sprays don't even last 5 weeks).

  • Why chasing perfection in detailing is a waste of time for most daily drivers — and what you should focus on instead.

These are the insider truths I've learned after 16+ years in detailing and developing my own chemist-backed line of products. If you're tired of wasting time and money on hype, this episode is for you.
