For paintwork correction you will be probably looking at a MINIMUM of £250 and depending on how long is needed for the correction, add any extras (engine bay cleaning, leather feeding etc) and a top notch final wax coat and you can head up from there...
Its a real quandry for me at the moment, I am in two minds if I should pay someone to do it as a one off and then maintain it myself. Or splash the cash on my own kit to do it (and family) for around half the price.
Only problem is that Audi paint is well known for its hardness and the amateur tools like the Meguirs G220 or PC dont cope as well as a proper full on rotary, but then a rotary in the hands of a newby like myself could cause all sorts of real expensive damage quickly.
I got plenty of other cleaning kit what the "pros" are using - Foam gun, cleaners, degreasers, waxes, dressings, sealants, new pressure washer etc - I have splurged probably around £200 on decent gear last few weeks. Just that last step of buying the polisher I am debating over at the mo.
