    Car washing service

    A few friends and I have started washing cars for people and the replies from customers has always been the same, you should do this as a job. Result !!!
    At the moment we only offer one service.

    The Service consists of:

    + Exterior Rinse to remove all loose dirt.
    + Full Wash using the two bucket method.
    + Washing of Wheels and exhaust tip.
    + Cleaning inside all door shuts and under bonnet.
    + Removal of tar and bugs to the best standard we can.
    + Second Exterior rinse to remove all washing agents.
    + Full protective hydra blade and Chamois leather dry.
    + Full Polish and waxing of vehicle.
    + Window Clean inside and out.
    + Tyre shine.
    + Plastic and vinyl coating.

    We are fully mobile (dependant on distance) the only thing we ask from you is the use of an external or internal tap. If you prefer to come to us then let us know when booking.

    The Full Process includes using Autoglym or Meguiars products (no other products are used).

    We have visited some valet places and for the same process we offer they are charging upwards of £40.
    The price we offer is £20

    It will take upto around 3 hours depending on vehicle so please allow this amount of time for the process to be carried out.

    If you need any more info or require pics of our work please do not hesitate to contact us.

    We are available weekends and weekday evening’s dependant of distance to travel.

    Pm me or add me to msn for my contact number or pm me and add me to msn to make a boooking.

    Hope to visit some of you soon.
    Many thanks

    There will be swirls caused with a chamois and hydra blade, you cant stop it.

    Also have to be very careful with what polishing pad/cloth you use.

    I wouldnt start doing this myself merely because the customer could turn round and say I caused damage to their car, its something to consider.
    Punto Gt no more!
