I hear Polished Bliss are awesome, although aren't they based up north?
Midlands Car Car have done a few 1M's and you can find their threads on Detailing World. Here are a few of their threads: http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/foru...d.php?t=265265 http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/foru...d.php?t=256024 |

Why not DIY?
Do you hire a jigolo for your lady, too? |

Use Marc from Heavenly Detail. He bought up my VO fantastic and Im the hardest person in the world to please. He used Swissvax Crystal Rock IMO the best wax in the world and the wet look in the paint is amazing. When you compare the finish to another VO 1M the difference is so noticeable. Also he has done Aussie on here as well see the pics from http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=700197. PM me for his details if you need his services. |

Some people simply do no thave the time nor skill involved in properly detailing a car, nevermind "expensive" car they don't want to mess the paint up on. Sometimes it is easier to pay someone experienced in re-building a motor than it is wasting the enormous man hours and money doing it yourself and making mistakes. Same goes for pretty much all skilled trades like professional detailing.
I hihgly doubt you do EVERYTHING yourself in your life and NEVER pay ANYONE to do anything for you. Because you are just an amazing electrician, plumber, house builder, car detailer, painter, car mechanic, carpenter, landscaper, etc, and have all the time in the world doing all of those things... |

We all love our cars and detailing is something I see as an expression of that. So is an oil change I suppose, but I see the process of making it look brand new again as satifying and fun, regardless of how many hours it takes. I would not give that up to someone else, and I am sure others feel that way. It has nothing to do with saving money. My apologies for throwing in a piece of humor. I hope the OP took it that way. If not, I apologize for jacking the thread. People around here need to lighten up. |
