A week in the life of someone with ADHD 🤣

I swear I haven’t posted in a while because I’ve been “super productive”… or at least that’s what I tell myself. After work I come home with one plan, then my ADHD goes: “actually we’re doing 7 other things instead” 🤣

It started with fixing motorcycles, then I thought I might as well add a few garden slabs… then I decided it would be nice to add some flowers… and now, as I’m writing this, I suddenly feel like going fishing 😁

This VW Golf received a full valet. I also spent a bit more time on deeper chemical decontamination and deep cleaning of the mats. The car came out great as always, although I won’t lie — it took a bit of work.

Fiat 500L Transformation – Interior Detail + Dashcam Install**

A few weeks ago this Fiat 500L had a full paint correction followed by wax protection. This time, the focus shifted inside.

The vehicle received a complete deep interior detail, including seat shampooing, carpets, and all interior surfaces. To finish it off, I also carried out a front and rear dashcam installation for added security and peace of mind on the road.

The interior came out looking fresh and well revived. Some areas of the seats required a more careful approach due to wear, so I adjusted the cleaning method to safely restore them without risking further damage.

Another clean, protected, and now fully upgraded vehicle delivered.

A quick note for anyone who, when buying a car, was offered paint correction and ceramic coating.

I don’t want to say every seller is trying to mislead you, but honestly I’ve had a lot of clients telling me they were sold a “ceramic coating” with a lifetime guarantee. Many cars supposedly had paint protection applied, but in reality the paint was left in a terrible state — full of holograms and swirl marks.

And let’s be real, it costs you quite a lot of money, and very often people end up being misled.

For example, one of my clients bought a car last week that had “paint correction and ceramic coating” done. The first thing I noticed were holograms visible from a distance. Another thing that caught my attention was polishing compound still left on the paint (which clearly shows the car was not properly prepared before any coating — no proper degreasing, nothing).

During washing I used only pH-neutral products and a shampoo with no wax or additives, just to test whether the coating was actually there. As it turned out — there was definitely no ceramic coating on the car.

For comparison, at the end of the video I’m showing a moment where I’m washing a car I previously applied Soft99 wax to a few months ago. You can clearly see how the water behaves on a black car that supposedly has “ceramic protection”, compared to a car where I actually applied wax myself.

Another new Tesla Model Y from one of my regular clients has just received a ceramic coating with Gyeon Q² Pure EVO.

Planning to get a new car and want to protect it properly? You don’t need to overpay at dealerships or wonder if your car will actually get the coating you paid for.

Drop me a message — my prices are fair and I always try to keep them accessible for everyone 💪💪

A few photos from one of my recent jobs — this time a Tesla Model Y, but not the standard version. It’s the new Performance model, and it looks really impressive both outside and inside.

The car received a 3-year ceramic coating application using Gyeon EVO Pure, plus a 1-year glass coating on all windows.

If you didn’t know yet, I now also offer ceramic coating services for units as well, so weather conditions won’t get in the way of our plans anymore.

For more info, feel free to message me or give me a call.

Another day, another paint correction and protection 🔥
This time a BMW 6 Series received a 1-stage paint correction along with a 3-year ceramic coating 💎

I’ve also got some great news — from today I’m now offering studio-based work 💪💪💪

If you’re looking for top-quality results but have concerns about ceramic coating or polishing being done outside (for example under a gazebo), no worries — you can now book your car in for a garage (studio) service.

This is a perfect option for bigger jobs like paint corrections and ceramic coatings, where controlled conditions really make a difference 👌

Studio work is available for an additional cost of around £75 on top of the service.

For more information, feel free to message me — the option to choose studio work during booking will also be added to the website soon 📩

Light transformation on this Golf Mk2.

In general, the Golf Mk2 has always had a special place in my heart. It was my first car after passing my driving test, and even as a kid I loved this model—especially when it was slightly modified in that classic German style. That passion has stayed with me to this day.

The client originally booked a full valet with wax, but after a quick paint inspection I knew it was going to be a challenge. Years had taken their toll—the paint had lost its shine, with oxidation and a dull, faded surface. There was no way to properly apply wax in that condition, so together with the client we decided to bring in the polishing machine.

I didn’t have enough time to carry out a full paint correction, but I did as much as possible to restore the gloss. It was especially important as the client is taking the car to the Goodwood Car Show in a few weeks, so he wanted it looking its best.

Here are the final results. To finish it off, I applied Fusso wax to enhance the shine even further and protect the paint for the next few months.

Hi everyone, it’s been a while since I last posted here.

Just a quick update – I’m all good now and out of the hospital. I had to take a short 2-week break from work, so it was a bit difficult to stay in touch and reply to messages. I’ve also had a lot of backlog to catch up on, so thanks for your patience 🙏

I’m now back and fully available 💪

Here are a few photos from one of my recent jobs – this time working on a Fiat 500 with a very faded finish.

The car received a 1-stage paint correction, followed by a wax protection. It really brought the paint back to life and the car is now looking fresh again, making the owner happy 💪
