Justin is a perfectionist; you can leave your car with him confident his eye for detail will spot and correct any imperfections. It is safe to say my 6 year old 55k miles BMW M3 looks better now than when I collected it brand new. A great service delivered from a secure location with decent transport links.

Just collected my car, had a 2-stage polish with Gtechniq CSL. It is 5 years old and now looks fantastic, far better than when new. A true master of his craft and a great guy to spend time with; he is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I highly recommend him.

Had my 911 ceramic coated and even though it’s a few years old, the results were really impressive. I wasn’t sure how much improvement to expect, but the end result was beyond my expectations. Thoroughly worthwhile and a very easy process throughout.

Ceramic coating FAQs
What is a ceramic coating?
A ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that bonds to the paint and cures into a hard, glossy layer. It does not change the colour or hide defects; it protects what is underneath and makes the surface easier to clean.
Is ceramic coating worth it?
It is worth it for owners who want easier maintenance, lasting gloss and better resistance to contamination. It is not a substitute for careful washing, and it will not stop stone chips.
Will a coating stop scratches and stone chips?
No. Hardness claims are routinely exaggerated. A coated car still picks up chips and scuffs — paint protection film is the answer for impact protection, and can be combined with a coating.
Why does the paint need polishing first?
Coatings are transparent, so swirls and haze are sealed in and made more obvious by the gloss on top. Correction always comes first, which is why the coating is part of a detailing package rather than a standalone product.
What is included in the price?
Every package includes a machine polish, the Gtechniq coating for that package and Gtechniq C5 on the wheel faces. The 1-Year package uses GT1, the 5-Year uses Crystal Serum Light topped with EXOv5, and the 9-Year uses Crystal Serum Ultra topped with EXOv5. Prices depend on your car’s size and whether the paint needs a single-stage or two-stage polish.
Crystal Serum Light or Crystal Serum Ultra?
Serum Light suits most road cars and is guaranteed for five years. Serum Ultra is harder, thicker and guaranteed for nine, so it suits cars being kept long term or with high-value paint. Ultra can only be applied by accredited detailers.
How do I look after a coated car?
Maintain with washing with the right products, and avoid automated car washes or brushes. We provide aftercare guidance on handover, and maintenance washes can be booked with us.
How long does the work take?
Between one and three days depending on the correction level, and coatings cure in the studio overnight before the car is handed back.
