The Detail Solutions Podcast

Almost every day I read a post in any detail Facebook where a detailer is asking "What's the best coating" or "I'm looking for a new coating brand, What's the best?" I assembled a group of detailers that I feel have great knowledge on said question and had them explain or at least attempt to explain an answer.  Tony Kiger has so much experience and knowledge of coatings. Jason Killmer probably understands paint better than anyone on the planet.  David Fermani knows more about detailing than most ever will. And then there's Jason Bruno and myself.  I'm not sure if we truly answered any of the questions, but I feel the knowledge put out will give a lot of detailers something to think about when choosing a coating brand. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/detailsolutionspodcast/support

I've known Corey from Sky's the Limit for about 7yrs now and he's always been super helpful and luckily for me he's super close to my business.  A few months back I asked Corey if he'd come on the podcast and he graciously accepted.  Now we all finally get to meet the man behind CARPRO US and all the other fine products that Sky's the Limit carries.  Corey also takes time to explain why he's so restrictive with coatings and why he's not like other coating distributors.   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/detailsolutionspodcast/support

We had some technical difficulties with the first interview with Jason, meaning our audio tech forgot to hit the record button.  Things happen for a reason though right?  I feel this interview was the better of the two and had a little mistake not been made we wouldn't have this version.  Jason is known all over the world as "The Sandman" and probably is if not the best one of the best people in the world for sanding paint.  He is 1/3 of KXK Dynamics and has pretty much done it all.   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/detailsolutionspodcast/support

I wanted to do a topic on mentoring and Jonathan and Mark always were the two people I thought of as the perfect guests.  These guys are not just selling you a program, they've lived it.  Watching Jonathan and his partner grow from a driveway detail company to a nice big shop and the same with Mark seeing him go from a small garage to a bigger shop has been a real joy.  These two men know a thing because they've seen a thing or two.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/detailsolutionspodcast/support
