I did mine myself. Found a commercial garage with a outside ramp and a steam cleaner. Then a friendly garage who let me use their ramp and Shultz air gun. It's a messy job which you need a white disposable o/all with a hood

Mainly depends of the level of cleaning required before the waxoil can be applied really but around the £80-100 mark would easily cover it mate.

Do you know if it dries out over time? Had a feel under mine when it was up on ramps a few weeks ago and parts of it almost seem to be the consistency of dried-out grass clippings that gunk up the lawnmower. Reckon it could do with being re-done?

It's wax so should stay as such. This helps small areas of damage to 'heal'.

Waxoyl does wash off though, which is why I went with this - it's wax without the oil
