Frankly i couldnt be arsed to spend £50+ on cleaning products and then spend hours doing it myself! got recomended a company and they came out to my gaff and spent 3 hours working on it, done a pretty good job, fully cleaned it, mopped the paintwork, worked on some scratches etc.. just a shame theres no sun to show off the shine, pics dont really do it any justice 
Before...
As you can see ive kinda let it go abit  
And after  
and a few more but its such a dull day therres not much shine to it!
Cost £75 in total and they will come back each month and give it a once over for £15 
P.S im not saying detailed as that word fucks me off!

lovely. reminds me of that chinese bloke in fast and furious
one thing though. for 75 pounds, you could've bought a lot of cleaning products that would've lasted a lot longer than once. but it's all down to the quality in which it is used i guess

Very nice, worth paying the money for a proper clean & tidy once in a while if you cant be arsed yourself!!
Car looks very good with the standard wheels painted.

That's a pretty good price imho - especially as they do a top up style clean.

Id like to see the paintwork under direct midday sunlight, as to 'mop' or correct the paintwork will take many hours.
Im guessing its full of holograms and buffer trails.

he's basically saying he would like to see the sun's reflection on it as it shows up swirl marks  hence why steve said the best light for showing up a clean black car is when theres no direct sunlight on the car.
