New to Detailing in JHB - andrewbuch - 31-10-2011 08:55 AM
Hi all,
My name is Andrew.. I am 25 & a full time student @ UJ. Trying to get my Bcom IT Management Degree... But my passion seems to be more with cars & less with computers/IT
I have not really gotten into Detailing yet, But was thinking in December holidays I would have some free time So would try my hand at giving my car a going over. At this stage I would be doing all the work by hand.
Then I had the idea of maybe I could try convince my dad that if we got a DA & some products etc, I would be able to then do all our cars & keep them all looking new.. Have not tried this route as yet
Anyway, I am hoping to learn all the tips & tricks & techniques from you guys that I would need to start working on my car.
Cheers
Andrew

Welcome to the forum bud. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Do tell us what you drive? What colour etc...I'm also a Bcom student, part time though, and just like you, my interest is more with cars too.
Once the detailing bug bites, there's no turning back!

Hi,
So ran the idea past my dad about getting a polisher & products & it seemed like he thought it was a good idea
I drive a 2000 E46 318i Manual in White
My dad has a 2006 E60 525i Auto in white & a 2004 Jeep GC also white
My mom drives a 2010 E90 320i Auto in white
So these are the cars I would start on
My Fiance has a 1999 opel Corsa 130i Hatch in metalic blue
We also have a 1998 Land Rover Discover 1 V8i thats silver at our holiday house at the coast, if I get a chance I could also work on that

My dads always had BMW's
And he will only buy white cars.. Except for a few randoms (my old E30 318i Dolphin Gray & the Disco)

Welcome Andrew!
Hope you get to start some detailing soon. A fantastic hobby (in my case) for sure!
