I have this, and this is the most perfect air compressor for mobile detail or any kind of use, for me it’s quite some people are just too sensitive about what people saying in the internet but this thing is quite and efficient, it’s also heavy duty too Very good for Tornador and long nozzle blower
You should make a video of your reel build for the pressure washer . I did one as well with the harbor freight retractable reel and threw it away after it busted on me in 2 different jobs. The o ring at the swivel kepts busting and leaking water everywhere
hello there.... I got my first compressor, thinking to start my new car detailing business, I got the Ridgid 4.5gal that I paid $350 at HD.... but I was thinking to return and get the FORTRESS 4 Gallon, 200 PSI for $249 ... I can save $100 and buy my Ultra AIR Blaster gun....... What do you think?.... you know? money is short. ah! and you give me an idea to buy not a VAN, but a small regular car like yours.... looks fantastic.
The one from HD you got is one of the best for Mobile detailing but I actually use a much cheaper one. I did a video on it. It will save you even more money. Personally I would get a more budget compressor if money is tight. You can always upgrade later and get better equipment. I think you are on the right track 👌🏾
Perfect timing! I’m about to start my detailing business and already purchased my vacuum and water pressure! I have a question, do you think it’ll be profitable for a teenager and how do you gain customers without a website? I was thinking business cards and knocking on doors.
I know it will be profitable!! Those both sound like an awesome start! I would also recommend posting to your personal Facebook profile and letting everybody know that you do detailing and offer a special deal to friends and family
Awesome nice setup I got to pick up air compressor to. For my mobile detailing van I need something not loud. Is that a good air compressor or do I need one little bigger. Keep up the great work.
If you have the extra budget I would go with the husky for. It is one of the quietest with a decent scam. Otherwise the Ridgid 4gal 5SCFM one is kind of the king of the mobile detail world but any of them are great options all at different price points but the Husky is hands down the quietest. For Mobile detailing I ended up going with the husky for the quieter and smaller setup. Was going strong until now but it is still under warranty so no big deal.
@@jamiesdetailing Thank you for responding back .And thanks for great information I check in on that husky air compressor. I'm looking for something quiet that might be it.
You will definitely need a compressor for a tornador. The big boy is just a blower not for air tools. You really don’t need much to start your business. Think about the service you are offering then the price you are doing it for then get the tools and equipment to do that service. You don’t need a tornador or blower to get started but they definitely help speed up the process. Speed won’t matter much until you have multiple bookings per day. Just focus on that final result. I honestly never detailed with any of this stuff until about two years ago. Didn’t have most of this stuff when I started though
@@jamiesdetailing I have the money to afford either, so I was just wondering. So, a BigBoi wouldn’t be good for compressing air to remove like dirt off the interiors and stuff like a tornador would?
@lowtrusted no I would definitely recommend a compressor setup with a tornador for interior over a typical electric blower. The blower will work but won’t agitate the same as the tornador. But the blower in my opinion is better for drying up and blowing away chemicals as you dry. So if you have money for both get both. You can use the bigboi on exteriors as well so you will get your use out of each tool
@lowtrusted it’s actually working really good! Way louder than the Husky I show at the beginning of the video but it’s got a decent size tank and the recycle time isn’t bad at all. I would definitely recommend it!
It’s the internet 🫠. Most people just repeat what they hear not what they have actually had experience doing. You don’t need 4.2CFM for the tornador. 4.2CFM is what you would need being output from the air compressor if the tank is completely empty. You don’t need to worry about CFM until your tank is empty. This has a larger tank than the ridgid so you actually get more run time before the pump kicks back on. If you use your tornador for minutes at a time then you will run your tank empty then you are relying on the compressor alone to supply the tool air. I have a husky 4 gallon at home that supplies a 30gallon buffer tank. I never run out of pressure. And I don’t need a high cfm to resupply the buffer tank.
For adhesive removal I use 3M heavy duty adhesive remover!! You can see all the products I use on my resources page on my website! Link is in the description
@@jamiesdetailing dude thanks for the clarification! I literally bought the $300 fortress high performance 5 gallon unit 😅😅. Gonna keep it for the truck mobile unit but im gonna pick this cheap one up for an additional hatchback build. I love how compact this one is
That $300 fortress one is a beast though! Definitely keep it if you have the space 👊🏾. The little 6Gal is great though as well. I’m typically only use an air tools for a few seconds at a time maybe 20-30 seconds at most so honestly worked perfect for what I needed
Do you think the fortress 4 gallon air compressor that costs $230 would be better? It is a smaller tank but it has higher output. Im not too sure. I know ridgid would work better but im not sure. I prefer the fortress ones. Also,how was the husky generator? Thank you
looking to get one for tornado and tire shine spray gun 6 gal is good ? i have a 3 gal now but it keeps cycling and have to always wait for air. not very efficient and effective any suggestions thanks brotha
The Rigid is definitely a better option 100% agreed but this one is less than half the price and smaller if you need to save space! It definitely gets the job done
This is the exact compressor I used for probably two years when I was mobile. Still use it in the shop even though it's tiny 😆
Is it good for tornadors? How long does in last when blowing air ( in seconds ) I’m about to purchase one now
I have this, and this is the most perfect air compressor for mobile detail or any kind of use, for me it’s quite some people are just too sensitive about what people saying in the internet but this thing is quite and efficient, it’s also heavy duty too
Very good for Tornador and long nozzle blower
Do you have this one or the 150psi "ultra quiet"?
You should make a video of your reel build for the pressure washer . I did one as well with the harbor freight retractable reel and threw it away after it busted on me in 2 different jobs. The o ring at the swivel kepts busting and leaking water everywhere
Like the setup you are running. Congrats man. Looking to get started on something and getting some ideas 🫡
Appreciate it 👊🏾

if its anything like the evolv aircompressor make sure you buy a bag of ten off and on switches for it...
I will definitely keep that in mind! So far so good

@user-eh5de2ik7c 👊🏾
Hey buddy what model husky air compressor are you referring to in this video? Thanks 😊
@@EssentialTouch Husky 4.5 gallon 175 PSI Model #3320445 it is the super quiet one that is around 65db
If you had to choose between the 2, which one do you think would work better? Your 6 gallon or the 4 gallon fortress?
I’m going to be honest. The 4gallon 👊🏽
Thank you man. I hope the best for you and your family. God bless.
Also does that air pressure machine work with the tornador well? Or should I just buy the iBigBoi Mini+?
You will definitely need a compressor for a tornador. The big boy is just a blower not for air tools. You really don’t need much to start your business.

@@jamiesdetailing How much would you suggest the one you got in the video? Looking to get something to not break the bank ahah
@lowtrusted it’s actually working really good! Way louder than the Husky I show at the beginning of the video but it’s got a decent size tank and the recycle time isn’t bad at all. I would definitely recommend it!
what product did you use to remove the adhesive ?? Also, why does the entire internet say you need a 4.2 CFM minimum to use a tornado? lol. thanks
It’s the internet 🫠. Most people just repeat what they hear not what they have actually had experience doing. You don’t need 4.2CFM for the tornador.

I have seen other people use it and they like it a lot! I think it would be a great option 💪
what's up" baby J"? Great product review
Whats your power source setup
We just use client power. No generator. 👌🏾
looking to get one for tornado and tire shine spray gun 6 gal is good ? i have a 3 gal now but it keeps cycling and have to always wait for air. not very efficient and effective any suggestions thanks brotha
What generator do you use Jamie?
I actually do not use a Generator. I explain why in my detailing rig videos 👌🏾
For just detailing on my own vehicle and moms occasionally. This will be good?
Absolutely! 💪
SCFM is Very Important On Air Compressor..... you should have at least 5.0 SCFM FOR CONSISTENT AIR FLOW RIGID 5GALLON FOR THE 🏆 WIN
The Rigid is definitely a better option 100% agreed but this one is less than half the price and smaller if you need to save space! It definitely gets the job done
thanks for the video. use a mask.
What did you use to get all that adhesive off?
3M Adhesive Remover. It is probably one of the best
@@jamiesdetailing Awesome thank you!
