detailing

Customers wifes car, needing a lot of TLC. Some bits too severe to recover, but most areas fixed, has had some previous poor respray work, there was even wet sanding marks still visible that had not been sorted after sanding.....couple of areas only had 80 microns of paint left, not much to...

Sorry guys, it's not a Golf... This R32 Skyline GTR is incredibly solid without a single spec of rust in sight. 100% original and straight panels. The car has all the Nismo option parts running in N1 spec and tuned to 550BHP. I got to go out on track in it at Silverstone at Jap Fest and I...

I haven't posted anything on here for a little while so I thought I'd share this VAG offering. I've been so busy lately and haven't had a lot of time for photos, bit I took a few along the way. The car is a weekend toy (as most are) and was to be used for the owner's friend to arrive at his...

This was another cool one (for me anyway) so I hope you can appreciate it. This Evo Wagon is one of 2,500 made and boasts huge Alcon brakes, Ohlins suspension, a few other trick goodies... and 400bhp. The car was to be shown on the Rota Wheels stand at Jap Fest so needed a little tidying up...

Meet at 10am in Fighting Cocks PH, Lowestoft car park for 10.30am start. An informal gathering to chat about detailing and cars. I'll possibly be prepping my R5GTT fresh from its restoration. Demo car will probably be a twin of my Laguna Coupé. Sorry, this event is cancelled

I'll try and keep this simple, but it was a lot of work! The car was left in the hands of another detailer (I'm not allowed to know who) and pretty much ruined. The 'detailer' told the owner that they could clean, sand and polish the car... in one day. When it arrived. The...

Not a huge write up on this, but it was a cool car and something I'm sure will be appreciated. The car belongs to a good friend of mine. He's had it for 5 years and has gradually built it into an amazing drift spec weapon. It was painted around a year and a half ago and has only been washed a...

Another BMW (sorry), but I thought it'd be nice to share. The car came in from the Auto Finesse detailer network for a protection package with the owner traveling up from London. Once the car was cleaned up, there were more and more defects that became apparent. On arrival...

I had one day to make this seemingly tidy 350Z look it's best. It arrived fairly clean, having been bought just over a month ago from a dealership and not washed since. The car received the usual safe wash and decontamination before being brought inside for a thorough inspection. Paint depth...

Been reading a lot about detailing on the forum so I thought I'd give it a try on the daily driver :0)

Ok , question for you detailers out there. I think I might be talking to one other person out there @LowiePete. I have some daft name wax : Dodo Juice Rubbish Boy's Juiced Edition. Rediculous name but I quite like the way the wax applies and makes the car appear "wet" Water beads well, and the...
