No irony but I need to know of a good detailer... It's not to wash the car or anything, what I really need is a proper polish and wax job done as the car starting to look really dull.

I also need to sort out around 600 stone chips that are all over the front bumper and bonnet. I have around 2 - 3 chips per square centimetre. To be honest I am likely to need a full respray, but if Chipsaway are good enough, I might see what they can do. Any other suggestions?

600 stonechips will look like a patchwork quilt if chipsaway do it.

I used them once for a repair, terrible job, overspray everywhere. Having said this they are franchises so the quality of workmanship may vary.

They vary big time. They've got some very good folks, and some abysmal ones. For the amount of stonechips you mentioned, I'd sooner have a quick blow over done at a decent bodyshop.
