Default Got the STi detailed :D

hey

thought i'd put some pics up.. got the STi detailed last week by Tom Molloy of Purity Detailing who covers the West Yorkshire area.

http://www.wix.com/andy0902/purity-detailing (Website under construction)

Well impressed with the outcome considering he only spent a day on it. he wanted more time to perfect it but i needed the car unfortunately. the main purpose of the detail was to buff my new door in after the hit and run a while ago..

what do you think? the shine has returned

cheers, unbelievable how much a difference it makes, the swirl marks are really bad on a black car. really hard to maintain, all scratches and swirls are visible on black, really hard to hide.

as for the car he drives lol that put me off at first when he came to do a quote but then i spoke with him and the way he speaks and atitude etc. changed my opinion of him.

plus i knew people who had used him before with no probs.

my mates m3 plus a porsche which is local to me. so i guess you never judge a book by its cover lol

Thanks guys, yeah im so happy with it, had so many compliments , the car looks new again.

superb job in the time he had, wasnt expecting it to be that good.

really brings out the curves in the car aswell as the blue feckles.

black is a pain to keep clean and look after but once it is looked after , it looks awesome!

i paid £140

for full car wash,cleaned, claybard and then machine polished.. plus wax full car bar the roof and front bumper.

my car was really badly swirled, depends what you want done, defo cheaper if you just want the machine polish only

plus he worked from 8am till 9pm straight on my car with 1 hour off.. because i needed the car he did his best in the day..

poor fellas worked hard i wouldnt make him do that again, i'd let him keep the car for 2 days.
