Hi guys,

Can anyone recommend somewhere that does valeting\detailing of cars in Essex. The paint on my Cerbera is looking a little tired (it is 13 years old after all) so was hoping to get it clay bared, machine polished, waxed etc.

Try Fullbridge Restorations in Maldon, who have a very good paint shop. I have used them, and know that Daryl, who owns the business has some very particular customers, including me.
He has a reputation to maintain, and won't risk it, so if he says it can be done, it will be everything he promises.
Phone - 01621852320.

Thanks guys, I'll keep this in mind for when I'm ready to get my car done. Sadly it's going to have to be delayed due to a garage causing the car to overheat and suffer head gasket failure while on MOT.

sorry for your woe's

For future reference (all thou we are in kent , but 20 mins max from the tunnel) we can valet/detail your car and at the same time MOT/Service your car, what ever your needs .

In fact even paint your car if needed , owning a TVR myself (and fully restoring it) and servicing and mot'ing many a supercar we are very forgiving towards the more delicate cars and enough mechanical know how (not to damage your car), we carry out wax oil / stonechip restorations of under body's (done a jag today) we are a one stop shop really .

Also have lepsons on the same estate so wheels and tyres are covered too.

Its really just ICE that we dont get involved with .


Hope this helps kelly

I'll second Fullbridge. Had all sorts of work done there over the years, including them taking a nasty scratch out of my Cerb with the machine polisher when I was convinced it would need paintwork.

A vote for Kelly and the guys at KDS. Top notch. Have a look in the detailing section for examples where people have used them.

Has anyone used these guys?

I live very nearby and often see exotica in there so assume they are good.

Would like to let them loose on my car in a couple of weeks time but am always reluctant without hearing of first-hand experience. Will report back if I do give them a go.

I can't rate KDS Keltec (who posted above) highly enough.

Top, top bloke with pretty much every facility you could need - even has Lepsons 50metres away so you can get your wheels done at the same time!

Looking for a good mobile detailer in Chelmsford, threads a bit old so not sure if these recommendations still stand, any new ones?
