Services
Car Valeting
Our mobile car valeting service offers thorough exterior washing, interior vacuuming, and surface dressing using professional-grade products. Tailored to remove everyday grime and contaminants, this service enhances your vehicle's appearance while preserving its condition. Ideal for regular maintenance, it ensures a pristine finish without the need for fixed-site facilities.
Car Detailing
Advanced car detailing involves multi-stage paint correction to eliminate swirls, scratches, and etching. Using machine polishing and premium compounds, we restore your vehicle's paintwork to a mirror-like gloss. This service is perfect for rejuvenating aged or damaged finishes and maintaining showroom quality.
Car Protection
Our car protection treatments apply durable ceramic coatings and waxes to shield paintwork, glass, and wheels from environmental damage. Utilising Gtechniq and Swissvax products, this service creates hydrophobic barriers that repel contaminants, UV rays, and acid rain, prolonging your vehicle's pristine appearance.
Engine Bay Valeting
Specialised engine bay cleaning removes oil, grease, and grime without pressure washing, preventing electrical damage. This service revitalises under-hood components using degreasers and protective dressings, enhancing longevity and mechanical aesthetics for performance and classic vehicles alike.
Convertible Roof Treatment
This service applies advanced sealants to convertible roofs, preventing water absorption and UV degradation. By restoring water-repellency and colour vibrancy, we protect against mould, fading, and material deterioration, extending the lifespan of soft-top vehicles exposed to Sussex's variable climate.

What an awesome job Richard has done on my car today. I had a full internal and external valet and the results were amazing; my car was back to showroom condition. Richard was extremely helpful and amenable too and I can't recommend him and his services enough. The incredible value for money is the cherry on top too!

Having just bought a new Skoda Octavia & with a regular parking space under a tree which seems to house the world's most incontinent birds (and a complete inability to wash the car regularly), I was looking for some extra protection for the new paintwork. Skoda's in-house offering was around 450-500 (can't remember the exact figure) and forums suggested that all we would get would be a poorly applied cheap product done by the YTS trainee as quickly as possible.
Richard quoted a much more sensible price, was happy to travel, and uses GTechniq products which seem to get very good reviews. The

Richard has spent a couple of days working on our new TTRS. First a Gtechniq finish to bodywork, wheels and glass. Then followed 24 hours later with 2 coats of Gtechniq Exo V3. Great gloss finish and excellent value at half the price of the main dealer for double the treatment. Professional service. Will use again

Richard did a full new car protection detail on my Fiesta ST-3. It looks great and should continue to look fantastic for a long time to come!
