How it works

Our cosmetic detailing
process.

Every stage happens at your home or workplace. We bring the tools, the paint and the lighting to the car – you never drop it off, and you never need a lift home.

01 / 04

Wash & Decontaminate

A thorough pre-wash, snow foam, and decontamination process removes all embedded contaminants.

02 / 04

Paint Correction

Machine polishing removes swirl marks, light scratches, and oxidation to restore clarity and depth.

03 / 04

Protection

Ceramic coating or high-quality sealant is applied for long-lasting protection and a deep, glossy finish.

04 / 04

Final Detail

All trim, glass, and wheels are dressed and detailed for a complete transformation.

Correction first, protection second.

Detailing here is not a valet with a different name. We decontaminate the paint, then machine polish to remove swirl marks and light clear-coat scratches. If a mark catches a fingernail it usually needs paint, not a pad – we will say so rather than polish something that will still be there.

An enhancement detail from £150 is a single-stage polish for cars that have gone dull but are not wrecked. Full paint correction from £350 is multi-stage work on heavier swirls and oxidation. Ceramic coating from £450 only goes on after the paint is actually correct. Coating a swirled car just locks the swirls in.

Common questions

Detailing questions, without the upsell.

What is the difference between a valet and cosmetic detailing?
A valet cleans the surface. Cosmetic detailing corrects the paint: machine polishing to remove swirls and light scratches, then protection so the finish lasts. We also decontaminate, clay and dress trim, glass and wheels.
Do I need ceramic coating?
Not always. An enhancement detail from £150 is enough if the paint is in decent condition and you want gloss back. Ceramic coating from £450 sits on top of corrected paint and makes washing easier for longer. We will not sell coating onto paint that still needs correction.
Can polishing remove scratches instead of painting?
If a mark is only in the clear coat, yes – machine polishing is quicker and cheaper than a painted repair. If you can catch the scratch with a fingernail, it has usually gone through the clear coat and needs paint.
How long does a full paint correction take?
A single-stage enhancement is typically a day. Multi-stage correction on a neglected or heavily swirled finish can take two to three days because each stage is inspected before the next.
