Just had the car detailed

I finaly decided to have an enhancement detail on my car. It was done by Scott @ Beau Technique and I am really pleased with the results, nearly four years of swirl marks have almost gone and the bird lime etchings I had on the car are no longer visable.

There is a full write up of the process and more pictures if here for anyone that's interested.

Thanks for all the positive comments,

It took about 10 hours and cost £250, and well worth it in my opinion.

£250 isnt bad for that correction, did he say how long the sealant etc. will last?

Aproximately three to four months before it needs rewaxing etc.
