See how we polish a Jaguar MkII in our detailing bay in order to bring the paint back to its proper gloss.

Good lighting is important as this allows one to see blemishes that will otherwise only be obvious under daylight. Rooflights, a large hex area light, and various special lamps all allow the paintwork to be observed in detail.

Congratulations to the owner of this Audi, firstly on your taste in exterior colour, and secondly for being proactive when it comes to maintenance.

A coolant change and also a change of the hydraulic fluid in the Haldex all-wheel-drive unit will keep this example in its excellent condition for longer.

It's a good idea to refresh gearbox, diff and AWD fluid periodically, especially if the car is used heavily e.g. for towing or a lot of hill driving.

You know what's more fun than painting a car? Painting it five times.

That's right, folks: Mazda's famous, and famously complex, Soul Red contains no fewer than five separate layers, all building toward a Wagnerian crescendo of DEPTH.

One of our paint chaps openly wept with happiness at the chance to show off his art.

This lovely Jag MkII has just finished a light spruce up with a visit to our detailing space, where its Signal Red paintwork has been returned to its full gloss. This 3.4 is going to be a serious head-turner among normal traffic.

If you're curious about our range of detailing services, please get in touch. We'd love to hear what you're thinking.
