Jon :-)

Lovely car mate - happy that you are pleased !!

Lambs wool and two buckets here you come :-)

Enjoy pal !

Looks good

xPETEZx · 05-10-2014, 08:16 AM

Looks amazing!

If I paid that much and the car looked this good I just would not want to drive it.
I get annoyed enough when a day after cleaning the car I end up parking too near a tree or drive down a dirt road, and that only costs me £10!

lovely finish... the detail makes the most of one of the best colours bmw do

Digitalize · 05-10-2014, 10:53 AM

Those results are why you go to a professional. Look great. Did you have a hard coating put on?

Boz335i · 05-10-2014, 11:47 AM

That looks great Jon. Very nice.

That driveway looks nice, got the number of the builder?

I think it did, some nano tech stuff

Adam said it would last about a year so I'm just going to splosh some AG HD wax now and then

He said he ended up doing a three stage cut and polish as after two stages he was not 100% happy, After he finished he was 95% happy

He has such an attention to detail that's for sure

He is based just outside Aylesbury Bucks in a village called Waddesdon.

Looks like he has done a really nice job, I'd say £350 is a bit of a deal considering time and consumables used! If I were you though I'd find out what coating has been used and get the matching topup product so to speak, waxing over the top of something like gtechniq for instance will just mean you loose the benefit of the coating be it dust and dirt repellency, water sheeting ect.
