It brand new.... I don't get it... Detailing is about getting the car to look brand new... It already is lol what's to clean?

Detailing at dealership

I have been reading up on detailing and the Gtechniq products.... I've read quite a few people that have had the car detailed close to whether have taken delivery and uncovered some issues with paintwork that ordinarily wouldn't have been detected....

I am also presuming that the Gtechniq product protects the car for longer

Have I been misinformed?

You are correct! New car detailing is all about removing any factory defects in the paint and applying good protection products to both keep the interior and exterior looking good and making cleaning easier.

Gtechniq are awesome products - if you send me a PM I can give you the details of my approved Gtechniq detailer - Over the Rainbow. Which dealer are you collecting your car from?

RE: Detailing at dealership

Steveb68, I replied to your post on the other forum.

There are quite a few of us on the forums who have used GTechniq Accredited Detailers and their products.

Good stuff in my opinion.

Evoque No3: MY15 Dynamic Lux SD4, Auto, Santorini Black, Pimento Dynamic Plus Sports Seats, Ebony headlining, Pan Roof, Shadow Chrome Alloys.

Tried PMing you but says you have reached your PM quota
