I know there are detailers all over the country but would probably use one recommended if they were local and weren't looking to pull my pants down as really the £100 late last year lasted one or two washes at most.
As a pro detailer, it hurts when I see people talk about detailers in such a negative way, your hundred quid 1 day polish is not a paint detail and would have left most of the swirl marks that you are seeing, also we do not apply products to fill the swirls in, every panel is wiped down with alcohol between every polishing set to ensure the paint is crystal clear and free of all scratches and swirls, the minimum you should accept is a 2 stage polish and this is not going to be done correctly in 1 day, personally I only carry out 3 or more stages of polishing for my many show winning cars, you pay peanuts, you get monkeys.
Rant over, Ted Whitehall.
