Well, back now and had a great time! The senior was was delayed as some of you will know. I was on the scaffolding at Greeba, watched the historic Yamaha's go past they were amazingly noisy. It was amazing that was at Greeba all day and got a tan, yet up at Ramsey there was hail, snow and rain! Once the race got underway it was clear to see on the road just how fast John McGuiness was compared to all the others. Really really trying! Got some great celeb pics, met Henry Cole, John McGuiness and family, Murray Walker all to have a good chat with. Saw Jamie Whitham, Craig Doyle, Micheal Dunlop a few times, Keith Amor, Ryan Farqhar, Cam Donald....there'll be others but a really relaxed atmosphere and were all happy to chat and have pics taken. I'll add some once uploaded.. |

Hey all! Been keeping busy so have not got round to a lot of updating in the gallery etc. Have added a few today including a beautiful Aston Martin Vanquish S which has been subjected to 3 days of paint correction. A full internal detail and a coat of Crystal Rock to top it all off. I think you'll agree she looks stunning.
Best wishes

Good morning viewers!
I have had a nice big shipment from Meguiars HQ and have been busy adding stock to the online shop. Some new ones to the range such as:
Ultimate Compound, which is a new generation of polishes. Able to be effective both by hand or machine and I was very impressed by the demo I saw at one of their detailing seminars.
Ultimate quick detailer, to give your car a quick once over to keep looking tip-top. A must for the glove box, show ready!
Gold Class shampoo, good value for money and wax friendly. It wont strip your carsprotection.
Other new products too, have a good luck round.
Best wishes, Tim |

Been very busy. Products added and new ranges. Paint correction work is going through the roof and did 3 last week and 2 straightforward details. Diary is filling up so if you are reading this and looking to book get it done! April is busy, May is chokka and realistically looking at June now for space. |

Well, after 2 hards days of prepping in the freezing cold today saw Envy Valeting deliver the show car belonging to Simon Mabey to the NEC. The car was subject to an in depth protection detail before being delivered to the NEC by us. Upon arrival the car was cleaned by the Envy Valeting support vehicle (we carry our own water and power) and taken into hall 18 where it has taken pride of place on the SIDC stand as a representative of Subaru through the ages, as the modified car. |
