NEW CAR DETAIL
1-2 days working time
Why do we detail brand new cars and why should you use us rather than your supplying dealer?
Not only do you benefit from the great looks, protection and easy maintenance the sealants offer from day 1 of your ownership, but applying a protective coating when the car is new is a lot cheaper than doing it later in the cars life when the paint will likely need extensive machine polishing before the sealants can be applied.
That said, unfortunately our experience has shown that regardless of value, new cars are rarely delivered with perfect paint.
Everyone expects their new car to look perfect. Sadly dealership time constraints and budgets can lead to unsightly paint damage being inflicted during rushed preparation, and then cheap ‘cover up’ products being used to hide that damage, only for the true condition of the paint to be revealed after the first wash as their ‘cover up’ products are washed away.
We have no such time constraints or budgets and we typically spend 2 days on each new car ensuring the paint is in perfect condition before applying a combination of Gtechniq’s market leading sealants.
Whether your buying a Volkswagen or a Bentley, or, a Fiat or a Ferrari, we can help ensure your new car looks like a new car should. The fact is whatever the value of your new purchase, you have probably saved long and hard to buy it, so we treat every car we work on like a priceless supercar.
Whats included in the New Car Detail :
-
WASH - Wheels, arches and paintwork are safely washed with acid free and pH neutral chemicals.
-
DECONTAMINATE - All exterior surfaces are decontaminated both chemically and mechanically using various tar and iron dissolving chemicals and a clay bar.
-
PAINT INSPECTION / CLEANSE - The paint is inspected using various lights and any small, localised defects are corrected by machine polishing (up to 1 hour of paint correction included). The entire car is given a single stage polish in preparation for the Gtechniq coatings. If required, additional paint correction above the included 1 hour will be charged at £60 per hour (inc vat) once approval has been sought from the customer. In extreme cases an 'Enhancement Detail' may be required.

Additional Glass Protection
Instead of applying Gtechniq G5 to your glass, which lasts around 3 months, we can apply Gtechniq G1 ClearVision Smart Glass to give 12+ months of rain repellency (usually 18+ months on side and rear glass). Unlike regular rain repellent coatings that adhere to the surface of the glass using relatively weak physical bonds, G1 uses a chemical bond which gives G1 unrivalled durability.

Additional Wheel Protection
Instead of applying Gtechniq C2 to your wheels, which lasts around 3 months, we can apply Gtechniq C5 Wheel Armour to give 12+ months protection and easy cleaning. Although regular cleaning is still recommended to keep the wheel in the best condition, with this coating applied brake dust and tar will become much easier to wash away. The wheels are removed for this treatment and C5 is applied to the wheel face, inner barrel and smooth painted brake callipers.
