Anyone with a leather interior knows how quickly it can get grotty and start looking worn - this is especially true amongst paler colour leathers. The use of ValetPRO Leather Soap will help you to prevent this from happening and will keep your leather looking at its best.

Because it’s hidden out of sight the engine bay is often overlooked during the cleaning routine. Whilst it’s a simple task, we think it’s one of the most rewarding.

A common question we hear in the detailing world is “what’s the difference between waxing and ceramic coating a car? ” An even more frequent question is “which one is better? ” Simply put, they’re both excellent methods of achieving very different results.

Advanced Poseidon Car Wash is our low-foaming car shampoo that was developed with a unique, very specific, blend of anionic surfactants that enables it to remove dirt and grime with ease.

Wheels are among the toughest parts of a car to get clean; they spend their lives in a harsh environment and due to their proximity to the ground they’re bombarded with hot iron dust, tar, grease, salts and a variety of other road grimes. Which is where Dragon's Breath comes in.

Pre-washing is an incredibly significant stage of detailing that can be easily overlooked if  people don’t understand the importance of it or how much it can effect the end result; pre-washing your vehicle relieves it of excess dirt and grime that would otherwise later be swirled across the paint-surface with a sponge or mitt and potentially scratch the paint work, which could in turn cause swirls or dullness.
