Hey guys,

Well as some of you may or may not know, i'm getting married in september.

as a result. i need 2 cars detailed on the morning, however it'd have to be early.

I'm in the Hills. But can anyone recommend someone that will do a good job at about 7am?

They're commodores if it matters

Cheers

Nick

Commodores can be detailed anytime of the day or night, here's the tools you'll be needing;

Ok in all seriousness, you can detail a car the day (or week) beforehand then just keep them/it undercover until the day they're needed.

Or if undercover parking isnt an option, get them detailed the day before, then at 7am have someone out there giving them both an easy normal wash with a hose and a bucket just on the outside (get the morning dew off them) and leave time so they can dry in all the spaces like door jams etc. And of course, whoever does it in the morning has to do a decent job with a chamois

You know how long a full detail takes, right?

I used to be a detailer and do you have like 3-4 hours time in the morning for a full detail?? Lol, on your wedding day, thats the last thing you will want to be worrying about whether the car is ready. Get it fully detailed during the week, and all you need to do is give it a hose, in the morning and chamois it thoroughly. If you think its not shiny enough, just get some quick detailer spray and a polishing pad and just quickly rub over everything (or get someone else to do this for you) would only take 30 minutes and a quick vacuum inside if it's dirty.

Yep exactly.

A just detailed car should only need a quick rinse and wipe for months after.

I gave my GTR a full detail myself about 4 months ago and even last week, just a quick rinse and wipe and she's perfect.

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
