Cut & Polish, Professional detailer – recommendation?


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

Last w/end, an over excited guard dog landed it’s paws all over my bonnet.

I almost killed it – in return it almost killed me back…

Anyway, there are a few very good scratches that won’t come out, but I’m sure a good cut & polish will do wonders.

Any professional details that you have used and can recommend?

Price for a cut & polish?

I was thinking of taking it to a paint shop to be buffed, but detailer could be cheaper…

Any comments?

And no dog jokes!

Thanks

1300 739 971 Martin from MBH Auto/Marine Detailing. He is mobile also. Wash, wax, chamios dry, wheel wash and tyres blackened is $22. He does have a buffing machine but you'll have to ring for a price on that. He said that a full buff on a commodore is $40. Good bloke and does a great job.

i got a thing from my local shop about a crowd called penguin car cleaning. little mobile franchises. from as little as 7.95 for a wash'n'wax to 34.95 for cut or polish. but what kind of a job would you get. seems a bit cheap considering they are coming to me and how long would they spend?? but you never know....

    • My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.
    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
