have a look on the detailing world website, in the regional section they might be somebody who could offer paint correction.

Hi Wokkaman

Just look at www.chemicalguys.co.uk - they have case studies on there and the best cleaning products I have ever seen. Iam not afiliated to them, just a customer - take a look at the cars they have transformed - the results are amazing.

Hope this helps

Go for any Zymol detailer. Zymol detailers have to pay a lot of money to be approved so are usually very good at what they do and take paint correction very seriously!! The Zymol detailer in Liverpool called Off Your Marks is amazing, he can make any paint work look amazing. The last time I went to his work shop he had an E39 M5 that was flawless.

The £2k tub of wax thing is all marketing, the detailers buy it for £2k and it gets re-filled for life. It is a bloody good wax however much it costs.
I was just saying some detailers are better than others and chances are the ones who pay to be Zymol detailers are good ones. I know there are loads of really good detailers who do not use Zymol.
