Will I need to sand it, or will a pressure washer do the trick? Can anyone point me to a good website with step by step instructions? I'm not having much luck. Also, any tips from those who have done this will be appreciated.
Thanks!

Please know that if you pressure wash a deck that's got a lot of chipped paint on it. You will have wet paint chips all over the place. Big mess! and you probably will have a lot of paint still on the deck after your done power washing it. If you want to stain it then I would recommend either stripping the paint with a product called "Marine stripper". The best stripper I know of. Or sand it all down with a belt sander. Do you want to stain it with a clear stain or a solid one. When you completely remove all the paint. Stain a couple of the boards at a time using a brush. This is so that the stain doesn't dry on you before your done with a particular section and thus you avoid over-lapping in the final results. Let it dry a day or two. then your good to go. The big problem with decks is that if you paint them. You have to keep repainting them. But If you stain them. Then you can re stain them again and again with little or no problem. If I had to choose a route that would be easiest and most cost effective. I would paint it. I would just scrape it down real good. vacuum up the paint chips. Clean it with a bucket filled with hot water mixed with bleach. spray it off with a garden hose. Let it dry a couple of days. And Prime/Paint it with a good deck paint. If your deck is made of pressure treated wood (Green color wood). Then this may explain why the paint is peeling badly. You will have to use a certain type of stain if this is the case or just leave the wood bare.

What equipment would I need to start a mobile car wash?
sweet a
I know that I need rags, brushes, products etc. What I dont know is what do I buy to get the water to wash the cars, like what powers the pressure washer, etc
Answer
Most people use a gasoline powered pressure washer. You can get water either from a long hose ran to a nearby building, or you can get one of those large water tanks, usually 90+ gallons. Most people mount the pressure washer and tank combo to a small trailer, or inside a large work van.
Then, like you said your soaps, cleaners, waxes, polishes, chamois, a vacuum, interior carpet cleaner, a brass brush, a ton of rags, etc.
