It seems ive caught the detailing bug for some reason i really enjoy it and i keep buying more and more products. My car isnt even that amazin got too many stone chips but i still clean all the time lol.

haha
its like modding - once you stop, you can't stop!! :grin: :grin:
i need some fresh supplies but fund are needed elsewhere :sad:

my advice would be to buy smart and clever... do your homework and price comparisons before you buy.
get yourself some decent storage shelves or, as I use, a tuff crate to store stuff in
only get quality products... they might be more expensive but you will get much better results :cool:

Fully agree, I'm building a garage batcave especially to be able to clean my car inside!

Wait until you start chargin people half price just cos you cant stand to see the car drive past you in that state everyday.
Wait until you walk into a Lamborghini showroom and when the owner of the showroom asks you what you think the only thing you can say is.... Why does it have swirls? Why is that rim not polished inside? Why did you leave the arches dirty? and then conclude in telling him the car wont sell.
Wait until you log into the internet and the first thing you do is check what car has been detailed by what person on detailing world.
Wait until you cant sleep at night because there is a Audi A4 3.0 litre Quattro outside your hostel and all you can think about is the car getting stolen and how exactly you will remove that one single scratch causing you to only fall asleep at 2 in the morning.
Or you could just wait until your parents stop giving you pocket money cos you spend it on cleaning products :lipsrsealed:
:grin:
I could go on forever :wink:

I'm doing this already...
Finally found a hobby that makes me proud of what I do. Got lots of people asking me to do theirs....wait till the batcaves built!
-
don't know about anyone else but i find it therapeutic.... my car paintwork started off like a shed and after a year it is finally approaching something halfway near decent - still needs tons of correction though
i charge people silly money... but when they see how much work i put in as i can't hand it back half done they always want to pay me more!
-
I'm in the same boat, car needs doing but i haven't got the time to do it properly at the minute and it is driving me insane! Shiniest K reg Polo I've seen around lol
-
im not addicted as such its such a chore! but once i get stuck in i have to get a toothbrush on the break calipers and get it 100%, Wish the sun would come out so i could get paint on my undercoat matt white car :( lol
Theres just nothing to polish at the moment :'(
