Hey all,

Thought I'd share my experience,

Went to see Damien @ Final Inspection on Sat, All I have to say is he knows his stuff and does an amazing job, very professional.

My car as you may or may not know my car has just been resprayed and this was the first cut polish it has received, as per instructions not to get it done too soon. Also didn't want it getting botched by some hack :D

For anyone looking to get this done I can't recommend Damien enough, very reasonable price for the service provided, He was even kind enough to give it a wax with Carnauba Wax!

Here are some pics, I think it came out great. Let me know if you need details on price etc

Cheers,

Hey buddy,

Sorry to hijack your thead but I must agree Damien is the best around, and if you are like me and like to do it yourself then he also sells the best products.

If you need the best supplies or best service and quality he is the only one to consider.

I was there when you dropped your car off, I would have said hi if I had known you were one of the SAU crew!

I bought myself some presents :(

And then went home and used some of them.....

hahahah, you most likely not only got possibly the best carnauba wax ever made (Royale) but you probably got a sealant layer underneath as well. Can't do all the correction work and not protect the car.

You can get decent carnauba waxes for around $40-$50 (p21s) but if you want to rush out and buy some Royale, you'll need about $18k handy :(

check with D, but you probably got FI Seal, followed by Royale - or possibly FI's own carnauba wax

holy moly that looks awesome! Even my new coat of black paint isnt that shiney! not fair :)

So when you going to do my car? :(

Yeah it was the Royale, I almost fell off the couch when I found out how much that stuff was!

Lucky you!

Damian is probably the best Detailer in Australia.

I heard that a car from Dubai is being sent over for a Concours level detail. About AUD12.5K for that level of detail!

    • I left the ceramic coating off this bit, hopefully it just comes off after a few drives.   The gap between the spokes is too tight for anything on a stick, its only marginally bigger than my finger. I have to use a brush to get in there and its a big reason why I thought I'd try the coating.   Absolutely will do. I have EBC Blue Stuff pads to put on the front which will make them a bit dirtier. I'm hoping a pressure wash will just get most off. The shine is different to most, its very thin but seems very well 'attached' so hopefully it lasts.   
    • Barrels don't need to be shiny clean. But they are certainly nicer when they are not polluted with years of brake dust, and worse the rotting corpses of the last 17 balance weight sticky pads scattered all around.
    • Yeah, type a special character like ^ or | to initiate the equivalent of the "at"ing for thread links. Although, it might not get any easier to manage. Imagine 30 or 40 threads that kinda match what you want, and the one you want is lost after a long list of useless ones. The magic keyword version I proposed would be a manual effort to set up each case. More of a directed effort from the greybeards to facilitate exposure of useful content. I'm not against the auto complete stuff being considered - maybe por que no los dos? (And where I said "triggered automatically" in my OP, I meant "triggered accidentally". Of course I want it to be automatic!!)
    • Ah yes, fair enough! I was purely thinking about cleaning the spokes and front of the wheel with the mitt. For the barrel the rag on a stick makes more sense. I've tried cleaning the barrels on mine and gave up in frustration. Between brakes being in the way or spokes being in the way and limited space to constantly move the car front and back it was just too annoying. The barrel being as shiny as the rest of the wheel sounds amazing though. At this point I'm not even sure if they have the same surface finish on mine. But I feel inspired now to find out.
