Detailing for your pride and joy

Why get your car detailed, there are many different reasons for detailing your vehicle. It is cheaper getting the paintwork corrected than having a respray.

Our aim is to enhance, correct and protect your investment; all vehicles come with differing scenarios, such as scratches, swirl marks, paint overspray, tar, tree sap, fallout to name a few. Some vehicles may just require an enhancement with a final finish that protects your investment like a wax or sealant.

Others may need a full correction or protection against winter.

G & G offer Ceramic Sealants which will give the paintwork up to 3 or 5 years protection dependant on choice.

These feature a high gloss, which is scratch resistant, chemical resistant, UV resistant, thermal resistant and Anti-Graffiti which is Super Hydrophobic and Anti-Graffiti effect combined mean the surface coated with a ceramic coating will stay cleaner for longer as dirt and grime will not stick to the surface and the super hydrophobic effect of the coating will cause water to bead up and roll of the surface.

Wax and ceramic sealants provide a protective barrier against contaminates and airborne particles like fallout (iron filings) that can eat into your paintwork and overtime create rust spots.

The holy grail that perfectionist want is the ultimate shine that repels water and contaminants and looks fantastic.
