Bentley Continental GTS in for the full works.

This customer opted for a full single-stage paint correction, a 3-year ceramic coating package, and an interior deep clean. The ceramic coating was applied to the paintwork, glass, and wheels, ensuring the entire vehicle is fully protected.

A serious amount of time and attention has gone into this one over the last couple of days. The coating is now curing in the temperature-controlled booth at One Customs, providing the ideal environment for maximum performance and longevity.

On inspection, we found the paintwork was heavily contaminated, flat, and oxidised. Due to the customer living near a railway station, iron fallout had become embedded in the paint, leaving it with a very rough feel to the touch. After a thorough decontamination and correction process, the finish is now incredibly smooth, with a deep gloss that feels like glass.

Inside, all leather surfaces were professionally cleaned and treated, bringing the interior back to a factory-fresh condition — arguably even better than new.

The preparation involved in a ceramic coating installation is what separates a professional detail from an average one. Proper paint correction, decontamination, and application in a controlled environment are essential for achieving the best results and ensuring the coating performs as intended for years to come.

Ceramic coatings are an investment, but they provide long-term protection, easier maintenance, and keep your vehicle looking its best for longer.

✨ Is your car’s paintwork looking tired? ✨

Check out this short video clip of an Audi S3 showing a 50/50 correction on the bonnet, giving you a glimpse of the results we achieve here at Drake Detailing.

This Audi came to us for a full single-stage paint correction, and the results speak for themselves. The paintwork was tired, faded, discoloured, scratched, and covered in swirl marks. After careful machine polishing, it was transformed into a deep, high-gloss finish with the majority of imperfections removed.

🚨 Rare sight alert! 🚨

An Audi S3 in red… you don’t see many of these around anymore. 🔴

This 20-year-old S3 came in desperate need of some TLC, so we gave it the full paint correction treatment. The results speak for themselves.

👀 Check out the first video and look at that 50/50 split. The difference in colour depth, clarity, and gloss is unbelievable.

The paint now has a whole new lease of life, bringing back the shine and richness this car deserves. Considering its age, there are still a few deeper defects that remain, but the overall transformation is massive.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage — Single Stage Paint Correction

Here’s a 50/50 shot on the bonnet showing exactly what machine polishing can do for your paintwork.

A single-stage correction can:

✔ Remove light swirl marks and wash marring
✔ Improve gloss, depth, and clarity
✔ Restore colour richness and reflection
✔ Reduce oxidation and minor paint defects
✔ Enhance the overall appearance without the cost of a multi-stage correction

The difference is all in the details. One side corrected, one side untouched — a perfect example of how much hidden potential is sitting in your paintwork.

Why Choose Drake Detailing?

1. Because your car deserves more than a quick wash and a spray of tyre shine.

2. I use purified spotless water, meaning no water spots left behind and a cleaner finish every time.

3. I’ve invested thousands of pounds into professional detailing equipment – not the sort of kit you’ll find on the shelves at Halfords or B&Q.

4. I use professional-grade products that aren’t available to the general public.

5. Whether it’s a £500 runabout or a £500,000 supercar, every vehicle gets the same care and attention.

6. Classics, performance cars, weekend toys, daily drivers and family wagons – I’ve worked on them all.

7. You’re dealing directly with me, not a franchise or a random pop-up detailer who’s just set up a page. We’ve got over 10 years of experience behind us.

8. I genuinely take pride in my work. If it doesn’t meet my standards, it doesn’t leave my workshop, and the van doesn’t leave your driveway until it’s done properly.

9. You can’t miss me – I’m the bloke driving around in the sign-written pink van, building my reputation one car at a time.

10. I’m local, reliable and proud to serve Whitstable, Herne Bay, Canterbury and the surrounding areas.

At Drake Detailing, reputation means everything. That’s why every vehicle gets treated as if it were my own.
