Your average vehicle wash will take 2-3hrs of your time, even if your just 'popping' to the drive thru for a 10min, £15, wash and shine.
To maintain this look, you will have to repeat this at least fortnightly, which over a year could work out to be 60-100hrs of your time & around £400-500.
You may also be inadvertently damaging the paintwork & environment by the use of harsh, incorrect or ineffective products.
Your vehicle could look outstanding for months or years & will have a greater degree of protection by being detailed. We can give you a show room wow factor and make keeping this look easy.
As detailers we have undergone training to understand the complex & time consuming regimes to deep clean, decontaminate, correct & protective coat the different body work types & interiors.
Just the standard process to prepare an average car for correction and coating, can take 3-4hrs to complete correctly as the baseline for the coating.
We have been trained & accredited on:
We will follow an approved regime to clean and decontaminate the exterior body work, in preparation for the protective coating of your choice.
This basic process is:
Extra processes, if requested or required and cost pre-agreed:
*
- Undercarriage wash in preparation for lanoline
- Engine bay clean and coat
**
- Additional stages of correction for damaged paintwork
- Headlamp correction, polish & coating
We can deep clean, apply enhancement / correction methods (to paintwork, glass and chrome) & protective coat anything within reason, including :
For larger LWB/high top camper vans, Caravans and Motorhomes please contact to agree on a price.
Where possible we will focus on only using eco friendly chemicals that have been UK & EU certified.
We are even open to bicycles & other domestic items e.g. roller doors, windows, mirrors, watches & mobile phones.
There are various types of coatings that can be applied to the bodywork including; wax, ceramic wax, graphene wax, ceramic sprays, hard ceramic coatings (for paintwork, plastics, car wraps and PPF (Paint Protection Film) and PPF.
They will all enhance the depth & colour of the paintwork & bring it up to a show room standard as well as creating a barrier on the surface of the paint that:
The duration for the enhancement and protection differs for each type of coating used and they will last months and for hard ceramic coatings years but ultimately how the product is applied & looked after, which directly effects how long it will maintain its protective properties.
NB The industry uses calendar terms to describe how long they will last but in the real world it is actually determined by the vehicles annual mileage, usage and the washing method used.
NB Currently we do not offer PPF film (Paint Protection Film). This is a form of transparent bodywork wrap has a much higher level of impact resistance and sun fade protection which can last for 10 years, and most have self healing properties but it is very expensive.
We can get the bodywork & interior looking as good as the day it was made, but have you thought about your engine bay & the undercarriage of the vehicle?
These forgotten areas get the brunt of the daily road dirt & grime, contaminated water & split top up fluids.
Having these areas regularly cleaned & coated will be cheaper than structural, mechanical & electrical repairs.
We currently use Lanoguard (lanoline) coating which when professionally applied, will halt & protect the metal structure from rust, for 9-12 months.
We can ensure you will always have that first impression wow factor, as part of our services for your vehicle maintenance regime.
We can provide you with a regular bodywork service, that can be undertaken during your downtime.
We can provide you with a pre-sale service, to increase the kerb side appeal and value of the vehicle to a potential buyer.
Why not work with us to add our services to your offerings & we can add that showroom shine, & added protection as part of the forecourt services or new owner handover.
The aim is to provide paintwork enhancement. This is achieved by machine, which will remove up to 80% of the surface swirls and light scratches and polish the final surface to a show room standard or better.
This may not always be possible and correction work needs to be carried out. To do this we will use various machines to cut slightly deeper into the paint lacquer surface and then perform an enhancement stage to complete the process.
As part of the assessment of the paint thickness & general bodywork condition, we may suggest remediation work and collaboration with a smart repair technician or paint shop is required.
We want to provide our services using the best product available to us.
We will not knowingly use any product that is overly expensive or cannot be replaced by an environmentally safer product.
To this end we have chosen SONAX as the primary supplier for our Car and Van products. They are a global leader in water & non-biocide based products, developed by a team of 30 scientists in their purpose built labs, & all products are manufactured in-house.
For our Motorbike products we have chosen CF (Coating Farm) as one of the leaders in the field of motorbike coatings.
