Leicester area detailers

[GBH14]

Does anyone know or can recommend a good detailer in the leicetser area?

I have found a few via google but after reading what they do it really puts me off using them... Do people really still use chamois leathers??

I want to take it somewhere i know it will be done well and looked after, not just some guy with a sponge and leather.

LOL. If they're using chamois, id take a guess at saying that they have no idea about what they are doing.

Bit of a trek for you, but Jim @ White Details in Lincoln is awesome (and a proper detailer LOL, non of this chamois crap).

haha well that is my point exactly, I havent seen a chamois since I was about 10 washing my dads car for a fiver!

Lincoln is a bit of a trek, its not somewhere i go so couldnt even combine it with a trip. What about Leeds? i often go there and there has to be some decent detailers there!?

Best to go to Midlands car care. Russ is excellent.

 

[Toby]

Jim or Russ if you want a proper job.

Jim = Pinnacle of detailing IMO.

 

[goldy...]

how much would it cost for a detail? i have no idea what sort of price to expect to pay...

Speak to Russ @ Midlands Car Care mate - he is on here as RussZS, he's very good! I have seen some of Jim's early work..

Im not 100% sure either to be honest.. Ive seen various prices on the net that are all completely different.

What do jim and russ charge for a full detail?

It obviously depends on the car size, products used, time taken and level of correction. So write them an email or call them.

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

Full correction is £250 roughly.

 

[Gally]

Full correction is £250 roughly.

With who?

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

With who?

Russ.

I was quoted £250 for my A3 and £350 for an x5.

 

[Yellow Dave]

that seems quite cheap for FULL correction, sure it wasn't for light correction / enhancement?

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

I'm trying to get on Facebook to check the quote but it won't load messages, As soon as it work i will post

I used Russ at midlands car care, I would definatly recommend him and he is not that expensive. He charged me less than £200 but I suppose it depends on how much work is involved. The write up of mine is here: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/show...Sport-Clio-182-in-Black-Gold!-Swissvax-Shield!

 

[Magic Detail]

Yes, Russ @ MCC needs to charge more! He is too cheap considering he is a decent detailer. As he isn't a million miles away, it is worth travelling a few extra miles to see him. You could come to me but I am further north being in Manchester, and more expensive.

I believe his ~ £250 is for the minor correction / enhancement btw, no idea what he charges for true 100% correction as I've never seen him do any, he knocks the 1 dayers out for fun, as you'd expect at that price.

 

[RussZS]

Thanks for the kind words folks and recommendations and also to Dave for the email

I'm excellent value, not too cheap

I am reviewing my pricing for 2013 though...

Guys (and Russ, forgive me here if I am over reacting), what Russ charges you is between you and him. Not for the entire world to know. It is on a case by case basis, which is why the OP needs to EMAIL OR CALL the mentioned detailers, rather than asking for our guestimates.
