Customers are often too happy to pay a small price for a car detail, but fail to understand what they are
receiving for it. The worst culprits in todays industry of car detailing is obviously coffee car washes. " HAVE
A COFFEE WITH US, WHILE WE CHARGE YOU TO STUFF YOUR PAINT WORK. " is what should be their
motto !! Fast Detailers who promise the earth for $100.00 dollars out of a car that is near destroyed in it's
appearance are also the likes to steer away from.
Many of these detailers make promises that just can't be kept. All for just dupping the customer. When a
detailer promises he'll give you a killer shine for a hundred dollars, you would have to sit and wonder if that
is really possible. Believe it or not, many people fall for it, only to discover serious paint damage with a
nasty affliction of swirl marks a few weeks down the track. When the vehicle is handed back to you,all you
see is shine and no swirl marks, but the swirl marks are there. The only way to shine paint instantly in a
very short space of time on a vehicle is to use really serious cutting compounds or what otherwise can be
known as cut and fill compounds. When your vehicle is completed with these compounds it looks flawless.
After you wash it a few times the filling compound washes off revealing the swirl marks. This is, typically to
be expected with detailers who promise everything. The only way to remove swirl marks from any paint
work permanently is with paint correction procedures. This does not cost 150.00 dollars, but rather runs in
the hundreds, as it takes hours to complete.
If a car detailer promises you a killer shine that will last for a damned long time for 150.00 dollars, I'm sorry
to say............your about to be ripped off. You may as well keep your $150.00 dollars and damage your
own paint work free of charge. We also carry out affordable detailing services, but we do not promise the
earth for it or use aggressive compounds for the purposes of hiding damage.
Many detailers use pure cutting compounds which cut and fill. Fast Mobile detailers and coffee car
washes are renowned for using these aggressive products on customer vehicles. The problem with these
products is that they remove extremely high levels of paint of your surfaces. This is only to be expected
with fast details while your having your Espresso or Latte. Reason being is that they need to save time.
This is why cutting compounds are used extensively. When you have done this a few times and then start
to notice your car is now starting to fade, it is only because your clear coat has near been diminished.
Have you ever sat at a set of traffic lights and watched a vehicle turning in front of you only to notice some
very ugly swirl marks and holograms bounce of the cars exterior. It also shocks me that I have actually
seen some rather expensive vehicles freshly rolling out of coffee car washes with brand new inflicted swirl
marks on the customers car.
Exterior paint correction is a step by step process. It is specifically designed to remove damage
permanently. How long it takes can vary from vehicle to vehicle, colour, depth of damage, required number
of passes and compound combinations to be used. From the paint clean stage to the polishing stage to
waxing or sealing the treated surfaces. This is what paint correction is about. The paint correction services
we provide last a long time. We only use top brand products. Meguiars, Autoglym, Toughseal paint
protection, and are now venturing into Menzerna and Wolfgang products. If you truly love your vehicle and
you are serious about its appearance, give us a call. We are more than happy to help.

Warning !!
Beware The Magic Potion.
5 year Guarantees
You will have undoubtedly come across products that are guaranteed for 5 years. No polishing, waxing,
paint protection needed or care.
I don't know about anyone else but, I don't feel comfortable trusting statements that guarantee protection
for five years without any maintenance. I would be more inclined to believe that I am being told what I would
like to hear. That there is a magic cure to paint protection, when there really isn't.
These guarantees have a lot to do with P.T.F.E and other various products. We also supply P.T.F.E
products, and although they produce fantastic results and have lasting protection, They still require a
minimum of upkeep or maintenance. Any vehicle owner who buys into the statment of " no waxing " or
maintenance needed for five years, is very fast heading for serious trouble.
Protectants will dramatically slow down the acid damage effect from the environment,whether this is to do
with bird droppings or acid rain or anything to do with fallout, but they will not stop it if maintenance is not
kept up periodically. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A 5 YEAR OR LIFETIME PROTECTION. IGNORE THIS
WARNING AT YOUR OWN PERIL....WE KNOW...CARS FROM THE WRX CLUB TELL US EVERYTHING.
You'll always need to eventually wax or re-seal. Whether it's normal waxes or even P.T.F.E. A minimum
amount of maintenance or upkeep will always be required.
EG. You see a bird dropping. You leave it for a day or two. You wash the car and it comes off.You do a
quick mist and wipe and everything is back to normal. Your paint protection "HAS" done it's job...It buys you
time. No polishing, or re waxing. That's how simple it is. If you leave that bird dropping for four
weeks........Different story....This is not rocket science. The only way to stop anything from coming into
contact with your paint is to put a plastic transparent film all over the entire car.
This is however not practical as it destroys that glass appearance and shrinkage can occur over time, and
we don't know anyone who does this anyway. This would also be ridiculously expensive. These products
are generally used around bumper bars and a little bit over the front end of the vehicle to stop stone chips.
Over time, they discolour, shrink, and look real ugly.
