what did you use on the RR seat Jamie?

I've got milk chocolate on cream suede/alcantara and dunno what to use to get it off

 

i used a very mild dilution of g101 mate then treated with AG leather care

 

Some cracking work there matey

 

Diluted g101 and chamois leather
will do the trick
Or most gp cleaners have same results

 

How do you get rid of these marks in paint? My car looks clean until I look closely and see little swirls like that

 

cheers mate

machine polish it

 

Good work mate, but i think the word detailing is thrown around too much, im a valeter and get the same results, just using a mop , some g3 g10 etc etc and then valeting the car, maybe i should change my job title lol!

 

i dont make the names up mate
most cars take me circa 10hrs work to detail,a valet i can do in 45mins-1hr
the above cars took me around 10hrs each. if people want there cars done correctly they pay for my time plus products used.if they want a quick valet then they get charged accordingly aswell.
ive got a full time job so just do detailing/valeting in my spare time as i enjoy it.imo theres a big difference between valeting and detailing.a valet round my way consists of a quick tfr wash,dried and wheels cleaned,tyres dressed and interior hoover.they dont clay it,dont seal alloys,get rid of any excess polish been used in the past stuck between badges or between panels etc.and they dont polish or protect the car at all.detailing is thorough cleaning and leaving the car with no imperfections.
plus the amount of cars ive seen/done that have been mopped and left buffer trails everywhere.looks good from a distance but get it under proper light and you can clearly see the difference

 

I would be scared to use a buffer on the paint incase i damaged the paint.How do you do it without damaging the paint work.

 

Very nice fella

I have a black range rover sport to do next week and his missus audi convertable


Glen get a meguiers dual action polisher or similar, I think thats the answer for newbies having a shot themselves

 

done some nice work/cars there mate will post mine up in the next few days

 

Jambo, how much do you charge?

PM if you don't want to break traders rules!

 

pm'd mate

 

Great work and some fantasic looking cars, even better after from what I can see. The pics don't do your work any justice. Get a new camera asap please! .

 

nice work mate but wtf had been in the back of that range rover ime guessing a dog or sumat ?
