No way I let anyone else touch my paintwork, scrambles my brain when I see nice cars getting done in supermarket car parks. Some of them don't even have a constant supply of water! I've seen them pouring their bucket water away after a session.... my god! I figure some people are to chop the car in on a 3 year lease and give not a single **** about the paint.
Washing the car properly in 30 mins, wow, that member must have 8 arms! Takes me 2 hours, but is time well spent, I do obsess with the process. My previous car (R32) used to take me 3 hours with black paintwork, more bodywork and fiddly wheels.
Used to leave signs in the R32 do VW wouldn't wash it in the sole job I trusted them to do... the MOT.
Proper detail takes me 12hours without a DA Polisher, or at least it did on the R. Yet to Dj the Cayman.
