Valeting Courses

[Vxgsm]

Hi,
I am looking to get into car valeting as a possible career...love cleaning cars...I am a keen amatuer, but this means nothing on the employment front ! Does anyone know of any training courses in North East Scotland ? Had a look but can't find anything...any advise would be appreciated.

Thanks
Gavin

Is that the DA or forced rotation Flex?

Thanks for offering...but looking at Aberdeen area. Willing to help out in a business free of charge...so I can gain some knowledge/experience if anyone knows of anyone ?

Have you considered offering your help with valeting to a small local independent? Once you gain a little experience, you could develop a c.v. I’m not aware of valeting courses as such, but when I was in the trade, it was a matter of word of mouth recommendation. Also, if a particular garage in the network had a good valeter, other small outfits would use its services. Most small traders have acquired valeting skills but if they are busy ( or simply very successful) they will farm out valeting. £40 was typical for a car that wasn’t disgusting.Maybe £50 now.

Thanks for your advise, will try some local independents. Hopefully will get some experience.
