I get to work on a lot of these cars, typically 1 or 2 a month since 2016, making them the car I've detailed the most.
This particular example was booked in for an Enhancement Detail to knock back the swirls...

new style of Lowiepete Detailing Day (LDD). Planning of future days always

keeping their content relevant.

I thought it would be good to show one of these jobs.
This lovely M140i is 10 months old. The owner had only washed the car a couple of times since picking it up - which played in the car's favor - and brought it in to see what needed to be done to get the car looking fresh and protected.
After...

I love these cars. I've been involved with them for many years...
This Transit Custom came in for a good tidy up.
The owner had purchased it a couple of months before it came in and it looked great on collection.
After a couple of weeks, strange marks began to appear all over the van.
It had clearly seen a bit of mopping action before sale.
The order of the...
This Carrera was booked after a poor result elsewhere.
The car had received '£300 worth of machine polishing' previously. I don't know where this was done, or what they were even doing.
The car was littered with buffer trails, swirls, polish residue in all the shuts and gaps.
The car then sat...

I'm very fortunate to get to work on quite a few of these cars, with two GTR specialists close by - they seem to flow through often :)
This great example is an R35 GTR Premium Edition with a Bose Sound System and a few other little treats inside.

I've never really been a huge Honda fan, but this car came along and grabbed my attention.
It's a Honda Civic Mugen RR. Never heard of it? Neither had I.
