Thanks; I'll give him a call. Anyone who uses cotton buds to clean a car gets my vote!

I've got my 911 that's due it's annual treat, and a basket case of a hack that will be a proper trade test! The before and after on that one will make interesting viewing.

Cheers!

Gareth at Detail My Ride is another option, and in B'ham itself, iirc.

I understand that Ade has a previous life in automotive 'paint' & hence much experience of car paintwork & got into detailing as he was hacked off with watching others make a meal of supposed car cleaning...he also took the badges off my friend's car when he detailed it & is quite reasonable on cost comparative to others who I asked for my friend. Whoever you use, will you post some pics of the event or the link for the detailer who you use as I assume they will take pictures for posterity! I have a strange liking for the straight lines they put in the carpets during cleaning the interior biggrin

If I can assist do feel free to get in touch. Cotton bud's and cocktail sticks are a must when fine tuning the intricate last little bits.

If it looks that good under artificial light, it must be stunning in daylight. I'm glad you are pleased with the results thumbup
