Car Detailing- South of England- Reccomendations?

Post by MODDED9N »

Looking to get my car detailed before winters little fingers find there way into every nook and cranny of my car
so want to get it properly cleaned! Not looking to rob a bank to get it done, just want a good job! Live
in Newbury, Berkshire. Cheers

Interesting thread as I'm considering whether to get mine professionally done next year as well. Got a few scratches/swirls that need sorting. Take a look at this list.

Why are you getting it done now instead of in the Spring? Surely better to get a good coat of wax on to protect against the salt/road muck over winter and then get it properly done when the weather picks up?

No idea who this is so no bias, but if it includes paint correction then it's a VERY good price. Other companies will charge a good few hundred quid more than that.

Great, great results!

However, if you get the right products and spend a whole day, you can save quite a few £ :P

Maybe not as good results, but quite close.

Cheers mate, paint work is still gleaming (under all the muck ;) all I do is snow foam every week n wash and that's it, the sealant on there is long lasting

If you join his Facebook and ask about the winter detail package he does then maybe that's the one for you.. It's cheaper then a full day of detailing n paint correction.. Mines getting done again just before the shows start again :) putting some very expensive wax on for top results...

I paid £140 but worth every penny n he did my seats.. But like I said had previous cars done with him so maybe that's a good price for me..

Like I said give him a shout on Facebook n get the winter protection done :D you won't be disappointed

I usually charge a bit more than that but will gave me a good deal on his dad doing my cambelt and I un-intentionally let him down with arranging a cruise control so doing him a good deal.

for that price I am doing minor paint correction not full. If you want more details then drop me a PM.

I dont do this for a full time job, more on the side at weekends mainly detailing high end cars for my step father who buys and sells high value cars (Bentleys, range rovers, AMG mercs etc etc)

Cheers
