Detailing Services & a few changes!!

Folks,

A few changes within the Detailing Shed business.

Steve to concentrate on the Detailing Products side...website, orders, etc - there's no change to how you would have used the Detailing Shed services from that perspective.
Going forward, I'm going to concentrate on offering Detailing Services once again, and being the Irish Agent for Swisstrax Floor Tiles

Just have one or two things to finalise (Motor Trade Road Risk cover), but essentially am taking any interest in bookings for Detailing Services, from now.
- We have on board, Franco Herity, who brings 25+ years of experience with automotive paintwork; painting, sanding, polishing, detailing, etc. Some of you may know the name; the man has an awful lot of knowledge and skill
- Sitting on our hands at the moment, with an announcement to be made in the coming weeks about interesting new offerings
- Plan is to offer training days; The Basics, An Intro to Machine Polishing, Wet Sanding, etc

Any one interested in inquiring about Detailing Services, shoot me a PM.....there may even be a limited period of Discounted Prices, to help build up our reputation and portfolio!!
Cheers,
Dave

Great stuff Dave :) would definitely be interested in the training pending more info.

The Z4 has a ceramic coat, what’s the best way to maintain it? Are you offering maintenance washes? Would pop in for one if so.

Sounds good Maurice...shoot me a PM when you are ready to make a booking! ;) Training days are best done when the weather is a bit better, so we'll release more details in the coming weeks!

Peter, when you get a chance, fire me a PM with the name of the coating, if you know it, and I'll see you right!

To be honest, for a detailer maintenance washes just slow you down; end up chatting to the customer about motors, etc, and the car in for the detailing work gets pushed back. However, there are lads doing steam washes two doors down from us, and we are considering approaching them about offering a 'safe wash' for our customers - show them the correct technique and sort them with the correct products...so there might be that option down the line! ;)

That’s great news Dave, hope it all works out. I for one won’t be around for detailing services, it just makes it too hard to get the covers on [emoji1]

The ultra slick finishes have the odd downside! :p

Update - as of today, the insurance is in place - so full steam ahead....get your bookings in!

excellent, well you know what I want let me know when the coating are ready....if thats what you think is best. Cheers

Well the coatings aren't for everyone. Ery effective indeed but if you like the therapeutic work of getting ut and doING a strip back and reapplication of a wax and sealant, then it's not for you. Also, some.don't quite like the glassy appearance on some.colours that would benefitake more from a nice wax.

Moe

I dont know???? Its a funny colour car, I will take your advice. Sakhir Orange. I do enjoy a good wax....and almost prefer the finish of a sealant on the car more matt.

Where is the information Dave e.g. Services, hours, etc? Tried your website via the phone and couldn't see anything about it.

Still waiting on a new Business Number to apply for a new website. All will be on it when it's released. PM me any questions in the mean time!

I LOVE that glassy finish and the "maintenance free" thing suits me perfectly as I don't have the option to do it myself (though I'd love to).

Yeah, its what suits your needs and lifestyle - if you are the busy sort, who might have an hour of a weekend to give the car a quick wash and dry; its perfect. Its not that the finish looks bad in anyway, but on deeper colours, it sometimes can lack a bit of that warm glow that can be achieved with a nice wax. Obviously the trade off for the ultimate appearance is the extra maintenance required for the finish. Its hard to look past a ceramic coating for a daily driver!

Have a few slots available, due to the snow scuppering some plans.

Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday are available if it suits anyone...drop me a PM
