    You may of noticed, it's had a bit of rehash today. We've decided to give this section of the site a bit of purpose as it's obviously a popular past time for many of us. :) It also puts some greater focus on those businesses and individuals that support SCN in this section. If you think we...

    Detailing day - my Ibiza Cupra TDI

    Since collecting my Ibiza 3 weeks ago from another forum member, I've been gagging to get the paintwork up to scratch (no offence to previous owners, but I don't think wax was ever on the agenda, let alone the 2-bucket method!). Paint was dull, had quite a lot of residues (tree sap, bird sh*t)...

  7. Does detailing remove chips.

    Detailing a Black LCR!

    Hi guys, been an LCR driver for 6 months now and i bought a black 225 because its the best looking colour for an LCR IMO. The car had swirl marks all over it due to the previous owner washing incorrectly. However i spotted this fella called Erran from the detailing world and had seen his...
  10. Whats the cost of detailing?

    I don't think i need it at the moment as my Cupra looks pretty good, maybe 'cos it's silver, the swirls don't show as bad as black or red. But, i've also got a black Bora that the wife uses and it looks terrible. Who's good in the Watford or Herts area and what should i expet to pay...
