V8 Vantage Detailed and story told

[Merlin V8V]

Good morning all

Well she is off for her quarterly detail tomorrow and I went on to my Detailers website to have a look at "Nanolax" as I’m tempted to have that done for ease over the winter (thoughts welcomed please). Whilst on the site I noticed this before, during and after story of the cars initial visit. I’d forgotten that he was doing it and I enjoyed the read and pics and thought that you might too. http://www.driveandshine.co.uk/wordpress/index.php...

I know opinion is divided on the value of professional Detailers but I have neither the time nor skill to do anything to this level so I for one am a big fan.

Where are they based, it's not obvious from their web site.

looks awesome ...black always does when its cleaned and looked after properly

id go for anything that can help in long term cleaning ...dunno what nanolex is, but im guessing its some kind of sealant, which is good on wheels for sure

I had my car treated by www.gtechniq.com with their polymer stuff, a month after I got the car. Now 3.5 years later it still beads water, although its picked up some inevitable swirls n chips over the last 51K miles n trackdays

I like a clean, well looked after car myself, but just dont have the time to spend a weekend on it myself, so Im quite happy to pay a pro to do it from time to time

Thanks, one of my bugbears - web sites that seem to think an address or location is not of interest then say they will drop off within 20 miles of their workshops!

Annoys me too.

On another note, I have lived in Godstone for 17 years & I don't even know where it is!

Is is in Lambs Business Park?

They are in Ivy Mill Lane off Waterhouse Lane off the A25. Hope that makes sense.

As you can see from the results I can highly recommend them!

It does indeed, merci.

Looks stunning. Onyx is spectacular (yes, I'm biased, but that doesn't make me wrong ). The detailer's description says he put Nanolex on the wheels at that first visit.

You are indeed correct, Nanolax was put on the wheels at the first visit. I've been so impressed with how easy the wheels have been to clean and maintain that I'm contemplating Nanolaxing the whole car. In fact I'm dropping her off today and am pretty sure that's what I'm going to do. I will have a long discussion with Bryan first though (Detailer).

Many thanks for all you comments.
