Exclamation *NEW* Polished Bliss Detailing *NEW*

Folks, we are very pleased to annouce that we have entered into a formal partnership with Clark Aitken to setup and run a company specialising in high end vehicle detailing. This company will be known as Polished Bliss Detailing, and will operate alongside Polished Bliss (which will remain unchanged). We have already started work under this name, and have completed two details, the results of which will shortly be posted in the show us yours section.

We must at this stage clarify a couple of points regarding the new Polished Bliss structure. Polished Bliss (the website) will soon feature a new section entitled 'detailing', that will provide a portfolio of work to prospective clients and serve as an advertising tool. However, Clark will have no involvement whatsoever in the running of Polished Bliss (the website), and all enquiries regarding orders, product selection, deliveries, etc must continue to be made to either myself or Angela. However, all enquiries about detailing services should be directed to either Clark or myself.

Here's a taster of the portfolio...

The usual £20 an hour plus travelling expenses if more than 100 miles round trip away from home. We try to give a best estimate for each car in advance, and then stick to it.

Too far for me to come at the moment I'm afraid, it would cost too much in time and money (we're crazily busy at the moment, and up to our necks trying to sort out a unit, so just can't spare several days away). However, there are plenty of good detailers a lot closer to you, if you sign up on www.detailingworld.co.uk and ask for help in your regional section you'll find one (just remember to check their portfolio first). There is one guy whose work always seems to be very good. He's based in Rochdale. Link to his website here...

http://www.finerdetails.co.uk/

However, once we get the unit you guys are welcome to travel up, and we'll sort out some discounted local accommodation for you for a couple of days.
