I know someone that does them from his backyard has all the tools, washes, cuts and polsihes and paint protects. etc..he is actually a detailer at oakleigh nissan whatever its called now. Everything he does is top work he just did my mates r33.

He charges 100 for the cut and polish or 150 for cut and polish and paint protect.

he's in bayswater..but hey mav is probably betetr to got rhough since he seems to be organising some good stuff.

I cant find an address for these guys?

Would you happen to know it? Got a problem only a real professional car detailer may fix :)

Just use the booking form on that site they'll get in touch with you.

They don't have an address yet, have a place opening soon though.

You can't get more professional and REAL than Final Inspection.

They do on-site detailing. Meaning if you can provide water and electricity, they can go down.

Book early though, it's more or less fully booked all the way till mid-June ATM.

I personally don't use products like that on my rims i prefer to use a wax or something not so harsh, also something that will in turn protect gives a much better result if you go down that path...

If its looking like a 2 dollar whore im sure we can work something out to get it not looking like a whore again :P

A white car should be the easiest to look clean. A proper cut and polish and wax will make it so easy to clean, dirt just wash off.

As for rims, use Power Wheel Cleaner (PWC). Cleans rims real quick and easy and is safe for the finish. Then, use wheelwax to protect and shine it, so it's easier to clean them in the future. Wheelwax also has some cleaner in it. After using wheelwax, I only use high pressure spray to clean the rims. It lasts for about 1-3 months.

4th, 5th, 6th, 100th F.I. (final inspection) - Damian is the pro of pro's. You would struggle mightily to find a better detailer in the ENITRE country.

Megs make some good products, but don't quite cut it next to some of the top products. Can get all the best stuff from final inspection as well.

All depends on how fussy you are. If you're not too fussed, you could probably just raid autobarn for Meguiars products.

Or, if you're really keen on your paint/car, you'll find the next level of stuff through final inspection. And it's not that price inhibitive, and less is more when using some of the best products.

2nd PWC (power wheel cleaner), and the F.I. MSTD (mid-sheen tyre dressing, not that super wet chapel st look). And yes, wheel wax afterwards, to help prevent brake dust build up, and basically just let you high pressure water the rims clean with a bit of PWC at your next wash.

If someone is cutting and polishing, you can't just leave it after the polish. You must apply some sort of wax/sealant afterwards to protect the paint/clear from all the crap in the air/bird droppings, etc.. this LSP (last stage product) will also help A LOT in the depth and clarity of the paint after the polish.

A great, easy to use wax, OCW - Optimum Car Wax - a little carnauba, and part synthetic. Dead-set easy to use. Make sure you have some TOP quality MF (micro-fibre) cloths, otherwise you'll just put swilrs in the clear when buffing the wax.

all in the preparation...

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.

      Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.

      Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.

      There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
