How Mobile Detailers Can Boost Revenue and Profits with FST Coatings

In the highly competitive world of auto detailing, mobile detailers are always looking for new ways to stand out, add value, and increase profitability. One of the most effective — and often overlooked — strategies is incorporating high-quality protective coatings into your service offerings. That’s where FST Coatings comes in.

What Are FST Coatings?

FST Coatings are professional-grade coating formulated specifically for mobile detailing professionals. Built on a proprietary Chrysoberyl-based formula, these coatings offer fast cure times, making them incredibly efficient and easy to use in mobile environments where time and flexibility matter.

The result? A durable, high-gloss finish that clients love — and a profitable, scalable service that can transform your business.

1. Upsell High-Margin Services

Protective coatings are premium add-ons that clients are increasingly asking for. Whether you're offering a full detail or a maintenance wash, you can upsell an FST Coating application for a significantly higher margin than standard services.

  • Average Coating Job: $500–$2,000+

  • Product Cost: ~$50–$150

  • Time to Apply: 1–4 hours (thanks to fast-cure chemistry)

The result? A huge boost in profit per job — with minimal extra labor.


2. Create Recurring Revenue with Maintenance Plans

Vehicles coated with FST require proper maintenance — and that’s your opportunity to offer ongoing service packages. By positioning yourself as a long-term vehicle care specialist, you can build monthly or quarterly plans that keep clients locked in for the long haul.

3. Differentiate from the Competition

Many mobile detailers still rely on basic wash and wax services. By offering professional-grade, fast-curing coatings like FST, you instantly stand out from the crowd. No more competing on price — you're offering a premium, long-lasting solution that delivers true value.

4. Build a Reputation for Quality and Convenience

FST Coatings deliver lasting protection, extreme gloss, and excellent hydrophobic properties. Thanks to the Chrysoberyl formula, the fast cure time means less downtime, fewer environmental risks (like dust or rain interference), and happier clients who see instant results. That kind of performance gets shared — on social media, in reviews, and by word of mouth.


5. Streamline Your Workflow

As a mobile detailer, space, time, and efficiency are everything. FST Coatings were engineered with those constraints in mind — compact packaging, simple application, and fast curing make them an easy fit into your existing service flow. No need for additional equipment or climate-controlled environments.


The Bottom Line: More Revenue, Less Hassle
