The car looked good to start with, but what a difference, it looks superb now. Thoughts of doing the same myself quickly shelved when I realised the number of different products and the hard work involved.

that is truly amazing, detailing now means something totally different to me now.
this guy is an artist, claying a body, many layers of waxes, sealers, the list goes on and on.
well done mate, if I lived nearer my series one landie would be in your yard.....
If you are doing nothing, how do you know when you are finished?

A good detailer, which this chap obviously is, will take your car and make it look better than the day it left the factory. I had a 911 done by Ben (of this forum) and it was night and day; the only down side being it looked so nice I didn't want to drive it!

Wow, just shows what a little elbow grease will do! I have always been a fan of Zymol products but I am going to try the Bilberry treatment on my Aero wheels and maybe investigate how to gently clay the body to remove old wax and build up a new one. Fortunately I have the time.  On the original thread there was one comment posted that I totally disagree with...... I'll let you guess which one

I wished that the condition of A11OGE warranted the expenses of having it done.   As Simon says, it would be a shame to drive a car once this had been done, and we would not want that, would we.
