Gina don't do it. I am really into car detailing and it would be the biggest waste you spending out that money! I'd do it for you for a day to show you how I could do a better job!, and with just £50 worth of products.

Now help me, I'm driving to Newcastle, tell me of a really nice hotel I can stay at!! Thanks!

Totally agree, I know a close friend who works for a major BMW dealer and he said it isn't worth the money. A good range of meguirs products will keep your RRE looking good.

Hi,
Thanks for your advice guys -it may as well be a foreign language to me. Problem is I don't really know of anyone local who will do it all for me. I'm high maintenance don't want the car to be too!!Surprised
Right -in terms of hotels- depends what type of hotel you want to stay in and what part of Newcastle?

Totally agree never have and never will waste of money !! My opinion I prefer doing it myself and seeing the finish that you get by doing it yourself
Recommend autoglym hd wax
As Mr Miagee said "wax on wax off"

Hi kevoque,
I'd rather wax my legs-ha ha. Actually forget that if I'm honest I'd rather pay for that too....sorry guess that makes me a lazy mare!

Lol well this conversation has changed from paint protection to wax to body hair what are you Geordies like !!! Lol

you should be able get a decent local car detailer who will do a post purchase protection that will be a million times better than any dealer applied supaguard or similar .

I will wax the car for you, and give the legs a go as well. It can't be that hard! Surprised

Gina time to log off as this might get a bit below the belt in more ways than one !! Lol

Megs are good, but better bespoke products out there...Zaino, DoDo and Poorboys......but £50 will get you a good treatment.

Gina, something very nice, contemporary. Central, although I will be in West Bolden and South Tyneside....

I like Hotel Du Vin down here, what's the Newcastle one like?
