Well, I reckon he is getting ripped off if he is paying £7000 a tin for polish

And takes THREE WEEKS? What the fuck does he do? Take the fucking car APART?

Some fucking people must have too much money to book their car into him, an dhe must have too much fucking time on his hands

Paul Dalton promises to rectify paint defects and then preserve the highly polished surface under layer upon layer of Zymol carnauba wax.

If you have an Enzo, or Lamboghini you would have your car valeted by him, maybe not the full 61 point valet, but maybe one of the "cheaper" ones. Simon Geroge who runs a Lambo uses the Zymol which is £4500 a pot (a pot does more than one car though...)
