2003 MR2 Roadster
I'm liking it alot
Yes lots! Have done lots of csl's but only black, not the dark silver lol
heres some shots anyways
I'll leave Rich to post the warehouse ones we did
And not quite a CSL (ok no where near!) but a mapped 330ci belonging to moi
Itsall about the Bavarian Motor Works .
Hopefully the job works out there after uni and I get a new one every 3 months On the downside no real reason to detail them But I probably will anyway - may even get some brownie points with Internal Sales.
The full detail Brazo and Rich did on the CSL is really worth checking out - I like!!

Hmmm I like the silver too, but I just love black cars!
Although its seen a maximum of 4 cleans in 8 months lol, jet wash for the win :rasp:
That's why I wanna give it a good proper clean because its looking rough as a bears arse!
If it looks anyway near as good as the silver one I posted and the black one you did, I'd be over the moon

Yeah its definitely worth correcting the paint properly and applying some decent protection. It will make cleaning it in the future and also retain the value of the car compared to one in bad condition - on a CSL that could be worth a lot of money!!
I didn't do the CSL that was Rich and Brazo - but I did a 335 Touring in black last week and came up very well, I was surprised how well the Menzerna polishes and PC worked on the paint as German paint tends to be quite tough. No orange peel either

Woooooooot!?!? Good work.
Out of pure interest what sort of price would it be to get it done?
True say!
Considering at a dealer £250 gets you a (rubbish) Diamond Brite treatment, these guys seem cheap in comparisson!

£400 ish
Its a big car and would take a good 2 days to get it perfect

You don't have to convince me!
Not as satisfying as doing it yourself though, just if you have time to spare and money and experience...I have been working on mine on and off the past couple of days - just hoping my Onyx arrives tomorrow and isn't lost in the post as feared
The Detailer - do you keep a collection of images of cars you have worked on for your business by the way? Site?

Aye, thats why I posted here askin for advice really as I wanted to give it a blast myself (with help of someone else) didn't really want to bring up my finalcial situations but I have other things I need to spend my money on at the moment and don't have £400 to throw about willy nilly.
Bet it was worth it though
101% Definately!

Yes I do mate, have got them all saved on a external HDD
I very rarely post pictures on the interweb, however I will if the client ask's me to do a write up so he can send links to friends and family or he can add a link into a classified advert if trying to sell.
I will show my pictures to potential clients who contact me with the aim to make a booking.
My website isnt fully up to scratch yet, I keep changing it and am designing my 3 complete site of this year
www.topmarquesvaleting.co.ukHTH
CS Dungeon
I think 99.9% of us have more important things to spend £400 on, but some people would rather a detail then coilovers.................horses for courses and all that.
Tbh you will need someone with a Rotary................its gonna take weeks with a PC:evil:
Yeah mate, was just saying, I'd love to have a full professional job done but was really aiming it towards the "A CSL owner doesn't enquire about prices, he wants it, he just buys it" comment
Yeah its a good idea. I only do it to earn some money and don't advertise myself at all except through word of mouth (normally my dads lol!) and get a decent stream - but mentioned in another thread the other day as I know by degree most the people's cars I am working on never charge as much as I could. Most I have asked for was £100 and I know if I was setup as a business I could double that.
On the plus side though I have no overheads and all cash in hand (which of course I pay tax on...)
Just a quick comment on the site: typo :quiet:
"With machine polishing you can add upto £1000+ to the value of your car by restoring faded paintork and removing scratches, swirls and bird lime marks."
http://www.topmarquesvaleting.co.uk/
I was thinking of just getting a domain and posting some images up there, although they weren't taken on the best camera still show the types of cars I have worked on and what I have achieved on them - customers are always very happy which is the main thing!

Yeah as you say just buy a domain name and create a gallery.
You will soon make a name for yourself.
Word spreads between friends and neighbours, especially when they come over to see what all the noise is.
Once they have seen the results for themselves, I can almost always get a booking lol
There is a new build site in a village called Colne, its an old farm yard with 6 plush houses built on it.
This time last year I was doing an X5 for a guy in one of the houses who booked me through a work collegue, by end of August I had done 9 cars from 5 of the 6 houses and there all calling the last guy a tight arse for not getting his RB320 done
Edit: Cheers for the typo, but it may not matter soon as i'm considering selling up the detailing business and going down another avenue.
