Default Please recommend a professional detailer

Looking for a detailer I can trust for a proper claying and 'paint restoration' for D2.
I'm based near Reading.
Thanks!

Depends on what level of prep you want done after a decontamination and paint correction. Many of the newer coatings require applying in climate controlled conditions so need an air conditioned workshop to do properly

I've got details for someone near Mercedes Benz world which I can dig out?

Didn't know about the climate controlled conditions!

Sergey I heard good stuff about these guys, but never used them. They may be a bit far for you.
It may be worthwhile searching on detailingworld.co.uk for some recommendations too.

Unsure how up to date this is, however there are searchable options here:

I'm looking for someone near North London, probably somewhere I can drop off my car

I'd second the recommendation for KDS Keltec. I've done a couple of his courses and he really knows his stuff.

Good work ethic and attention to detail, too. It's the only place I'd go.
