We recently held an open session for a few of the Auto Finesse Sponsored cars to prepare their vehicles for Ultimate Dubs at our unit in Walsall, which isn't too far from where UD13 was hosted in Telford, away from the poor weather and rain at the time. As part of this day, I helped Emma...
I've been looking forward to this one for a while - a stunning Ibis White Audi TTRS with some very special touches! I'm a huge TTRS fan after the Dolphin Grey one we detailed early last year and it looks particularly fresh in Ibis. The was also to be my first published CQuartz Finest detail -...
Firstly please allow me to apologise for the lack of write ups from us recently - those of you who follow us on Facebook will see that we've been somewhat swamped recently with work so write ups have had to take a back seat for a little while but I'm keen to get back into the habit of posting...
We thought we'd share one of the many window tint installs we have completed recently with you to show to process step by step. This car is owned by a fellow DW Member who drove well over 100 miles to come and see us! I'd also like to apologise in advance for the messy state of the unit which...
Excuse the silver wing mirrors, skirts and roof - wheels are being painted too!

I thought it might be a nice idea to post up pictures of cars you've recently detailed in a single thread so we can admire all things shiny, in the same place and list which protective products you have used...
A recent couple from me:

This Panamera was recently purchased for the Wife of the Brother of one of my best customers. He urged them not to take the paint protection offered by Porsche and instead to get the car over to me to ensure its applied correctly after the paint is thoroughly cleansed.
My wash kit was all...
Firstly apologies for the lack of write ups recently - I'm a fair few behind at the moment but should be able to get most of them posted up over the next couple of days. To see all of our latest updates please Follow Us On Facebook!
This write up is quite a lengthy one, featuring the worlds...
I swear I've done one of these Clio's before!! :lol::lol:
This particular example travelled over from Hinckley near Leicester to me, for a Light Correction detail to eliminate any swirling and reduce and deeper scratches present, in what was supposed to be a day, but turned into a 16 hour...
The RenaultSport Clio 200 Silverstone GP is a limited edition with a run of 50 cars being made. This particular example is Number 50 of 50!!
The owner is possibly looking to change this soon so wanted it looking its best ahead of a potential sale. We opted for a light correction detail...
Thanks for taking the time to read up on our latest work - please feel free to Follow Us On Facebook to keep up with the latest goings on at MCC HQ! :)
This car has been booked in for a few months - it has recently had a full polished wheel refurb at leading local wheel refurb specialists A1...
This booking was in fact supposed to be a Lotus Exige S but was changed at the last minute to a RenaultSport Clio V6 in Liquid Yellow - some of you may remember this from my write up on it earlier in the year:

The owner wanted it...
Today's task was a tuition detail on an extremely well kept Clio 172 Cup in Mondial Blue. All of my previous tuition details were carried out on silver cars which was a shade frustrating as the 'difference'/results are perhaps less obvious than they are on say a black, red or blue car...
This recently imported EvolutionV was very clean and well presented but the paintwork was very dry, easily marked and lacking clarity and gloss. It was booked in for our Enhancement Detail package and protected with Zaino.
A few befores of the car shortly after being dropped off:

Today's project was a very well kept Ford Focus ST in Performance Blue. The car was incredibly tidy and a real credit to my client but it had picked up a few paint defects over the years, mostly swirling with some deeper scratches. The mission was to restore the paint to its original glory...
Today's booking was a Range Rover Sport in metallic black. The car was booked in for a single day Light Correction Detail, so the aim was to do what I could with the swirly paint in the space of a single day, concentrating specifically on the exterior of the vehicle and then to also lay down...
The owner of this car had seen my work on Detailing World and contacted me enquiring about a price for a detail to specifically concentrate on the paintwork of his Z3 3.0i Roadster, as the roof had already been protected so didn't require any attention.
The was in great condition, but like...
When I first saw this Clio 172 I was astounded at how well presented it was - the entire car looked flawless and was a real credit to its owner. Monaco Blue is a fantastic colour and I've always liked 172's so this one was a real pleasure.
Unfortunately due to heavy rain I have no pics of the...
I've been a long standing fan of the JDM Type-R models including the CW EP3 Civic, the DC2 and FD2 Civic. The DC5 though has to be my favourite, so I really enjoyed this one…

Imola Red is a firm favourite colour of mine, so I've been looking forward to this 330Ci for quite some time since it was booked in a month or so ago. It is very low mileage for its age but the car was severely lacking gloss and the paint defects could be seen in just natural daylight, so I...
This was a hard one - I had quite severe food poisoning coming on during the day without realising but luckily unlike a lot of RenaultSports the paint wasn't too tricky and was correcting very well. Luckily I also had some help on hand - the owner was keen to learn and helped with a few panels...
This one has been booked in for a few months after a number of personal recommendations, but had to be rescheduled to yesterday. Black Gold is one of my personal favourite all time colours to work on as the transformation can be incredibly impressive...
Please excuse my limited 'wash...
I'm a little behind on my write ups at the moment so spending the bank holiday sharing my latest work with you. This detail took place on Saturday and was my first dedicated Tuition Detail. The owner of the car (a DW member from Leicester) wanted some help improving their machine polishing...
This 1M has been corrected by me previously but has recently had its front end wrapped to protect it from stone chips. The owner wanted me to try and deal with some of the swirling and scratches in the film and also lay down some more protection on the rest of the car to make it easier to wash...
This car is owned by a friend of mine and is being sold soon so I was asked to restore some life into its paintwork ahead of the sale. I also took the opportunity to try out the new Auto Finesse Fusion Wax...

I've been looking forward to this one for a while - I obviously love a bit of Edition 30, but I have particular love for them in white. This particular example included the stunning Xenon headlights and had also had its wheel refurbished by A1 Wheels in Bilston, who have done a simply stunning...
This car was literally a couple of thousand miles old yet had already picked up some quite significant swirling and scratches, so was booked in with me to rectify this and to also lay down some firm protection on the wheels and paintwork!!
So, a few befores...

This car is owned by a DW member and was originally booked in for a quick spruce up ahead of a wedding but I was unable to fit it in, so we rescheduled for today as the owner is now thinking of selling it (possibly to me!) so wanted to see what I could do with it in the space of a day... I've...
I spent last Saturday working on a Racing Blue 182, then Sunday I had a... Racing Blue 182!! The paint on these little beasts is ROCK HARD, so I had another battle on my hands all over again...

This fine example of a GTR is running Severn Valley Motorsport's 650R kit so has the power where it counts, but the paintwork was looking very tired and uncared for so the car was booked in for an Enhancement Detail to remove the majority of the swirling from the paint and to also get some solid...
