Car detail / polish edinburgh

Need someone who can go to murrays next week and give my car a good polish/whatever else it is 'detailers' do - any recommendations?

TIA!

I use a guy called Scott Millar to valet my cars, he's been doing them for years and I've always been very happy with his work and his rates are reasonable. On top of that, he's a nice bloke, I'll PM his phone number.
Before he went out in his own he worked for a Mercedes dealership prepping their cars.

Perfect thanks - would rather go on recommendation than a 'google'.

Mint car care.co.uk
07990 538446

These are the detailers that the Gold brothers use (458's, Hurracans, Phantoms etc)

Their wee VW van is pretty cool - Matt grey wrapped with black wheels

I'm going to use them to machine polish my 335i

Saw this cat on Facebook, Work looks amazing in his pics, and his prices are really keen!

I think I'll give him a try.

Unless Scott has taken a before picture you might just have to take my word for the mess of it (Ross can testify) for the before pic! 2000-3000 miles since it's last wash (with a jetwash!)

After pic should be no prob! :thumbsup
