A day in the life of DB Details & Valeting… 😅💪
Today’s job was a full soft-top restoration on this Jaguar XKR, including a deep clean, re-dye and protective treatment, while the boys at Mr TLC get stuck into the full body respray.
While the hood was drying between stages, it was off to Taunton to reset and restore the headlights on a Range Rover Supercharged 4.4 V8 petrol. These are notoriously expensive at around £600 a set to replace, but in many cases, a professional restoration can get them looking right again for a fraction of the cost. 👌
Customer over the moon with the results, back to the Jaguar to finish the remaining layers of protection… job done!
Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper day without a few hurdles along the way:
⛽ Empty fuel tank.
🧴 Ran out of chemicals.
💥 Pressure washer decided to give up the ghost.
Honestly, by the end of it, I wouldn’t be surprised if I’ve worked all day for net zero profit! 😂
But the jobs are done, the customers are happy, and we’re still smiling. That’s the name of the game when you’re running a mobile detailing business!
Have a great weekend, everyone. Thanks as always for the continued support! 👊
