I can easily put up a few threads that will blow you away in this respect...

how did you get into it? and do you work alone or do you employ others to do other cars while you are on one?
Clark and I both got into it from an enthusiast's point of view, although Clark does have some trade experience too. At the moment we work one car at a time, but later this year we will be expanding and training up a new detailer. God help them - Clark will be a hard taskmaster...

Our Ne Plus Ultra is a bespoke service, so each one varies in price. However, our day rate is £250 + VAT, to give you a rough idea...

There is no chance in hell that a trade orientated Autoglym product could deliver the above polishing results! 99.9% paint correction without a rotary polisher on rock hard Lambo paint? Aye, right...

Not true. This car is on contract with us, and even with regular driving, it is easy to maintain in the above condition. 5-6 coats of Zymol Vintage imparts such a crazy slick protective skin that dirt and grime rinses off with ease; it is possible to touchless wash in these situations, meaning no chance of the sub-surface defects returning.
