Services
Car Detailing
Our car detailing service includes a complete wash, machine buffing, swirl mark removal, trim cleaning, window polishing, and waxing. This process restores paintwork gloss, removes contaminants, and enhances light reflection for a showroom finish. Customers benefit from improved vehicle appearance and protection against future damage.
Bike Detailing
Specialised motorcycle detailing covers tank and panel polishing, swirl mark elimination, and trim restoration. We use bike-safe products to maintain original finishes while addressing wear from leathers or environmental factors. Riders gain a revitalised appearance and preserved resale value through our meticulous approach.
Swirl Mark Removal
We eliminate swirl marks caused by improper washing techniques using professional compounds and machine buffers. The process restores smooth paint surfaces, followed by high-grade wax application. Vehicle owners achieve a clear, reflective finish free from distracting micro-scratches that diminish visual appeal.
Minor Paint Repairs
Our repairs address scuffs, scratches, and key damage using factory-matched paints and lacquers. We employ water-based systems for modern vehicles and 2-pack solutions for older models. Clients receive durable, colour-accurate fixes that maintain vehicle aesthetics without requiring full resprays.
Re-lacquering Services
Post-airbrushing re-lacquering ensures artwork longevity through high-gloss protective coatings. We apply factory-standard clear coats to preserve custom designs while maintaining original finish integrity. This service protects valuable modifications against UV damage and environmental contaminants.

Steven Autocraft is a brilliant body repair centre. The owner is a vehicle repair perfectionists. Every aspect of body repair work is covered and done to the very highest standard. The process of accepting the vehicles is very Covid safe, from a point of acceptance of the vehicles. On arrival the owner of the repair centre will walk round the vehicle with the vehicle owner so, that the current condition is known. The repair or whatever is required will be agreed upon that base. The quality of work is second to none. very well recommended
