ProTool Mobile Auto Detailing Skid — 100 Gallon Starter System
Your Detailing Business Starts Here.
Big ambitions. Small footprint. No unnecessary equipment.
The ProTool Mobile Auto Detailing Skid is a compact, affordable, ready-to-work washing platform designed for entrepreneurs starting a mobile auto detailing business.
Built around a 3.1 GPM / 3,000 PSI pressure washer, 100-gallon water tank, retractable stainless steel hose reel, and professional detailing accessories, this system gives you the essential equipment to start washing vehicles without the cost or complexity of a larger commercial skid.
At just 48" wide × 40" deep × 30" high, the drop-in skid is designed to fit in the bed of most suitable pickup trucks.
No elaborate installation. No oversized equipment package. No paying for features you don't need.
Load it. Fill it. Get to work.
3.1 GPM at 3,000 PSI. Professional Washing Power.
Your customers expect clean vehicles. Your equipment needs to deliver.
The ProTool Auto Detailing Skid features a 3.1 GPM / 3,000 PSI pressure washer with a dependable pull-start engine, providing the rated flow and pressure needed for mobile vehicle washing.
From cars and SUVs to pickup trucks and light commercial vehicles, the system gives detailers a capable washing platform for a range of cleaning applications.
The included professional spray gun lets operators select suitable cleaning techniques and nozzles for the surface being washed.
For delicate automotive finishes, always use appropriate nozzle selection, working distance, and pressure settings.
Professional equipment. Without the professional-sized headache.
100 Gallons of Water. Take Your Business on the Road.
A mobile detailing business needs one thing above almost everything else: water.
This skid includes a 100-gallon onboard water tank, giving operators a dedicated supply for mobile washing jobs.
Instead of depending entirely on a customer's outdoor faucet, you can arrive with your own water supply and get to work.
How many vehicles you can wash per tank depends on your cleaning methods, pressure washer runtime, and water consumption.
And here's a useful bonus:
Fill It With Pure Water for a Spot-Free Rinse.
Want to offer a premium rinse service?
Fill the onboard tank with properly purified water and use it for a final rinse to help reduce mineral spotting as the vehicle dries.
Important: The skid stores water but does not include an onboard RO/DI purification system.
100 gallons onboard. Your next customer is waiting.
Retractable Stainless Steel Hose Reel. Less Mess. More Washing.
Nobody starts a detailing business because they love untangling pressure washer hoses.
The ProTool Auto Detailing Skid includes a retractable stainless steel high-pressure hose reel with 65 feet of hose.
The reel keeps the pressure washing hose organized, helps speed up setup and cleanup, and provides practical reach around the vehicle.
Stainless steel construction adds durability for regular outdoor use.
When the job is finished, retract the hose and move on to the next customer.
65 feet of hose. A lot less wrestling with it.
Spray Gun. Foam Bottle. Everything Has Its Place.
Good detailing equipment should make the job easier—not turn your truck bed into a junk drawer.
This skid includes the essential accessories for vehicle washing:
-
Professional pressure washing spray gun
-
Foam bottle for detergent application
-
Dedicated spray gun holder
-
Foam bottle holder
-
Integrated spray tip organizer
The holders keep frequently used tools accessible and organized, reducing clutter during setup and transport.
Apply foam. Wash the vehicle. Put your equipment back where it belongs.
Less searching for your tools. More time making cars look good.
Compact Drop-In Design. Built for Pickup Trucks.
You don't need a dedicated box truck or an enormous trailer to launch a mobile detailing business.
This skid measures just:
48" wide × 40" deep × 30" high
Its compact drop-in format is designed for installation in suitable pickup truck beds, providing an organized washing system without requiring a large custom vehicle build.
The layout combines the pressure washer, tank, hose reel, and accessory storage in one manageable platform.
Before installation, verify your truck's bed dimensions, payload capacity, and tie-down requirements. A full 100-gallon water tank alone weighs approximately 834 pounds, excluding the skid and equipment.
Four feet wide. Ready for the road.
Everything You Need. Nothing You Don't.
Starting a detailing business is expensive enough.
You need dependable equipment, but you don't necessarily need a massive skid with multiple engines, complex electrical systems, and expensive accessories.
The ProTool Auto Detailing Skid focuses on the essentials:
-
Professional pressure washing capability
-
Onboard water storage
-
Retractable high-pressure hose management
-
Foam application equipment
-
Organized accessory storage
