Hmmm yer, bit ott for an astra. But what ever floats yr boat I surpose....I bet the final finishing touch is added with the lights set dim some music and a fast moving right hand then rubs it into the paint work
Did love his car washing buckets tho

Is that the Paul Dalton who will charge you £5,000 to clean your car?
He does a cheaper service that I wanted him to do to my Focus ST before I picked it up, but the wife said no

I am an old friend of Paul Dalton and he is highly regarded in the Detailing World and has been featured on a few motoring programmes too!
He tends to focus on supercars where he has a large base of hiigh paying customers, as his toys will prove! That was his mate Marc's Astra but he has gone to even greater lengths since the blue one! http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/foru...ad.php?t=81391 |

I can't understand how he tolerated some flies to land on his roof... This is unbearable!
Joke aside, this is incredible work and pure madness. I can understand and respect that. But from a pure environemental point of view (sorry if this is not correct), this is mass destruction. 50L of water (not considering this is reverse osmosis water!) to clean a car, this much chemicals and so on, this is really, well, I don't have the words... Concerning the F40, those cars had so poor a paintjob from factory it's useless to apply such a work. One could see the carbon fibers through the paint... And if you look at the after pics, you can see there is more orange peel than on a Renault... Just my thoughts though. I love cars and the work this guy put in his Astra is stunning and done with taste I think. Julien |

I remember the white astra post on here a while back. Unbelievable amount of work. My car has not been washed since november, makes me feel dirty.

it takes a true genius to remap his car to make it quicker than add about half a ton of sound deadening
fair play to him though if thats what floats his boat seems a shame to do all that cleaning & prep to drive it in our shitty weather plus how bad will he feel if some mong drives into it or some scrote scratches it it all seems a bit pointless to me! but then he might think we're pricks for playing with toy cars so..........

I spent 29 quid to get mine valeted yesterday Some dude with a henry and a pressure washer, took him 45 minutes.. Sound job too.
Bit of an overkill on those Astra's, but the techniques are interesting. If I could afford a Ferrari, I reckon 5k is pocket change.
