Swissvax is fantastic stuff and it is not easy to be approved by them as a detailer so he must be good. I be u will be amazed with the results. Post pics!

Not Swiss Toni!!

Its great stuff, I have been using it and two of their authorised dealers for 6 years now.... if you have not done it before, spend some time with him and learn how to keep on top of it when he has finished....

£250 is a bargain for a full correction, would've expected it to be nearer double that. What wax did you opt for ?

That does sound a blooming good price. Our "local" (its Bristol) Swissvax place charges £415 to £490 (probably be the higher price on the Avant model) thats using Best Of Show wax as standard -

£250 I would be letting him do it. It was costing above £400 I would get my own kit (random orbit polisher like a Meguirs G220/PC/UDM) and have a bash at it, which is what I am going to do when funds allow.

using the PC etc u need to have some patience. The audi paint is rock hard and a PC takes it time to make an impact. Rotary is the way to go but u have to practice a massive amount as this can quite easily burn through the paint if your not careful
