My Detailing Service!

[stevie040]

First of all i would like to introduce myself. I am a 23 year old with a number of interests. First one being football then second being my job car detailing. As i was not going to make it pro i decided car detailing was what i wanted to do. I currently own 2 audis one being a UR Quattro and the other being a S2 coupe although i do like the look of the lexus, the best IMO being the IS200 :)

Now to the point. I have been scrolling through the site and can see that there are a lot of owners on here that care for there cars. With this in mind i decided to contact the admin for the site to see whether i could put my detailing service forward. In return i would offer a discount to forum members and also any advice to you DIY detailers (which i encourage).

My web site is www.sparkle-car-care.com so please take a look about and see what u think. I hope this post has not offended any of you as i know you probably get bombarded with people looking for cheap advertising. Thank you for your time Steve

PS Im not selling any products at all just my service thanks :)

Had a look at your site, i'd love to get my car cleaned and polished by professionals.

I can't find anything on your site that says where you're based and only a mobile number so no area code to find out that way either. Do you charge by the hour?

It sounds really good!!

Hi mate i am based around junction 5-6 of the M25, which judging by where u are is quite far for me. Hopefully i will be going to the Liverpool area at the start of spring as a number of clients from around that area want there cars detailed.

I do usually charge by the hour but i can usually give an accurate quote depending of the car size etc.

[Bazza]

looking good

perhaps you should offer to do a freebie to a local

what sort of hourly prices can we expect ?

[stevie040]

How about a nice discount? :winky:

how about a black zafira :o

to be honest i wouldnt be interested till the weather improves

but will need a good thorough job when it does

[stevie040]

It depends on the service mte. Zafira is not to bad to be honest, the X5 i have booked in the future is one im not really looking forward to.

[GWilso]

Stevie if you don't mind me saying your not really giving a lot away it would be a lot easier if you gave prices for each level of your service starting with the IS200 of Course :D and what discounts your willing to offer.

Just for the record at the right price and level of quality I would be intrested

[stevie040]

No problems mate based on an IS200:

A standard Detail: 100GBP

A advanced detail: 150GBP

A tailored detail and paint correction: 250GBP

These are approximate costs but i hope that helps. The services are explained here:

What do u think?

Discounts will be 10% on all of the above services.

[GWilso]

Seems reasonable thanks :D same as Bazza ill wait for the nicer weather but what do you mean by paint correction?

[P38Aaron]

Is that 10% off for non-gold members, how about us Goldies?

[stevie040]

Goldies can have 15% off the tailored service how does that sound?

Paint correction is multi stage polishing to remove swirl marks and surface scratches etc.

Hi Stevie

I would certainly be interested in the spring.

By reference to detailing do you mean what I understand as valeting?

I have a dark blue GS300 with a couple of minor paint scuffs a few minor scratches the usual stone chips on the bonnet and front bumper and a scratch on the bonnet that you can feel with a finger nail (it's not down to the primer though).

Incidentally whereabouts are you, I am near Bromley.

Would your paint revival process help with the scratches etc. I hope to get the minor scuffs sorted soon.

Keith

[stevie040]

The general rule is mate if u can fell the scratch with your finger nail then it wont come out with polishing unfortunatly.

detailing and valeting are similar but detailing is more about the ultimate finish, valeting is more based around time. Having said that there are a lot of very good valeters out there.

[stevie040]

As an introductory offer for the month of Feb i have decided to give a 20% discount on the advanced and Tailored details. Thanks

[P4UL T]

How good are you with interiors?

My cream leathers need a bloody good clean?

Thanks

Paul

[stevie040]

Interiors not a problem mate. Drop me a pm if interested. Cheers mate

[lexus_IS_200]

Would be worthwhile as there are a few Lexus owners up in the far north that might be interested.

Thanks
