Simples. Call him. If you're serious about your car looking spot on, this is what you must do. The phrase "get what you pay for" comes to mind.

Woah, didn't expect those while surfing through this thread.

For a reason. He is one of the only people I would let loose on my car. And I'm analy obsessive.

Can I suggest something to just end this thread? http://www.whitedetails.co.uk/index.php Local, ish.

Also, why is that not full paint correction . . . because it should be if he's doing it properly!

L to the OL. 5-6 hours for that? I don't think so. It takes me 5-6 hours to wash and reapply wax to mine. Let alone correct paint! Clio sized car takes me 10-12 hours. So a day. I have two booked in this weekend, so keep an eye out for threads/write ups. I'll include time lines just for you.

Not being dumb at all chap. You're not to know. Very small % of the Gen Public do know the difference. Just make sure he knows what he's doing, or you'll pay 60£ + £100s to correct the issues he's caused, either in respraying or proper machine correction.

Mopping; Paint correction;

OK, I'll explain this a little bit more. Mopping is the correct term for using a sanding machine and a buffing pad to remove scratches and contaminants left after a respray. It's a quick fix. Paint correction is the art of correcting swirls by removing the least amount of paint possible. If...

This man knows. It.

I'm not. But mopping is . . . how can I put it? Like cutting out an expensive painting with a blind fold on.

Yes.

That's what the lol was for. Beaten to it.

Lol.

You joke, but on the Audi, yes!

What polish John?

GAY.

I refer you to my previous comments in another thread; "my love juice offers more protection than DJ waxes - unless you're talking SN".

Not true. Wheels. Easy once you know how. Very simple fact that once they are cleaned (properly), you do not need expensive/any wheel cleaners. Wash the wheels with a non-acidic/alkali cleaner, like Autoglym Engine and Machine cleaner. This will rid the wheels of most of the built up brake...

Lol. The "grates" are grit guards, to stop you reaching the bottom of the bucket i.e. dredging up grit to put over the car's paint. Towel wise; http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/I4D_Uber_Premium_Drying_Towel_1.html or http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/Miracle_Dryer.html (or both...

Get it sprayed, get it JD'd, get it fendededededdddeedd.

HI! SRP, EGP and decent wash stuff; Wash mitt Drying towel (not chammy leather etc) Two bucket method (one for rinsing mitt after every time it's touched the panel) Decent shampoo like Megs Gold Class All available in Halfrauds.

Quicker than my Zen internet connection at home!

If you like this; use the voucher.

But I don't like scratches . . .

Lol, orange peel that bad on the Fix Or Repair Daily?

We have two wireless boosters. One is plugged into the wireless router, the second is just plugged into the mains at the other end of the house. Boosts the signal very well - no issues.

I am saying that my little soldiers would offer more protection than most of the Dodo Juice waxes (i.e. they're not very long lasting). SN = Super Natural; http://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/dodo-juice/supernatural-premium-wax.aspx?source=google-base

Yes polishing each week is too often, mainly for your arms and time, rather than paint. SRP will not polish your car as well as many other polishes, mainly because it is a filler polish as the other gent in the thread has mentioned. If you are trying to achieve protection, SRP->sealent/wax. The...
