you've just got to admire Paul's greatest attention to detail using technology and his perfection and his passion

i cant help but suspect though:
Paul: "hey buddy, looks like a leprechaun shat on your car, you'll need this magical potion"
Pop: "righto Paul do what you reckon"

Does anyone on here get that detailed when washing their mini?

Does anybody use clay?

I don't think many of us would either
a) have the time
b) have the paint job good enough to actually bring out any good results.

Unfortunately :cry:

I do clay my car occasionally and it does work - but my clay probably doesn't cost $150.

Geez - it's an ASTRA - get a life mate!

I used to have a great detailer, but I don't know if he does detailing on the side anymore. I must chat with him.
:wink:

Cheers
