Welcome to our web site! My name is Steve Monk, President of ADI and consulting author of the ADI interactive training system. I've been a freelance, top level auto detailer for over twenty years - performing my services for some of the most discerning clients and restoration shops on the east coast of the United States. Realizing that others could profit from this business as well, I started Technifinish Systems™ in 1995. At Technifinish, I developed and began manufacturing a unique, fully-enclosed, custom mobile detailing shop, as part of a non-franchised business "start-up" package.

Although Technifinish Systems™ has done well on a small scale, I know it's limited sales volume is not due to a lack of interest on the part of my prospective customers. In fact, the phone rings off the hook virtually every time I place an ad for the system. I promptly respond to these individuals with layout and pricing information - but only
a handful take the next step. After extensively researching all of the possible reasons as to why these prospects tend to slip away; I uncovered an issue inherent to the entire mobile systems industry. What I learned is that few people can comfortably afford the multi-thousand dollar investment to get started in the business - even with financing available. A mobile shop is an incredible expansion tool for an established detailing business - for most "start-up" individuals however, it is prohibitively expensive.

Having developed a greater understanding of the financial limitations and concerns of many "start-up" individuals, I set out to design a system where almost anyone can enter the detailing business - without the initial multi-thousand dollar investment of a mobile set-up or stationary shop. Over the past few years, I've discovered, innovated and refined a series of specialized detailing techniques specific to "start-up" field application. Additionally, I've researched and tested products and equipment alternatives, which (if used in proper combination) can virtually eliminate the need to carry large quantities of water and heavy gear for the "start-up" individual. After compiling a storehouse of information, I invested over a full year producing the ADI interactive CD-Rom. I've created this system utilizing a network of diverse media & informational resources - providing my students with a cutting-edge learning tool. After completing this course, the trainee can contact virtually any professional products distributor of his/her choice worldwide, acquire a few hundred dollars worth of materials, and get right to work. Entering the business in this fashion completely eliminates the worries and pressures associated with most large investment "start-ups". In this manner, an individual can gage his/her potential success over time, and determine if the business is truly for them, while enjoying an enriching, positive experience.

The ADI interactive system provides training comparable to any "hands-on" course, for a fraction of the cost. At less than $300.00 US, our system is an absolute bargain as compared to the $1500.00-$2000.00 + travel & lodging costs
of a "hands-on" seminar!


Remember you don't need expensive equipment and specialized private labeled chemicals to enter and succeed in this business. Our
interactive training system shows you the way to success
without all the bells and whistles!
