Amazing service with a great team. Top quality job. Took my Mercedes for some work after paint damage and dents, he gave it back to me brand new the day I dropped it off. Thank you so much Erik and the team!

An excellent experience. There is a difference between someone who does something as a job and someone who is passionate about their career. Erik is definitely the latter - he offers a top class paint correction and detailing service. He is obsessive about getting the best result possible. I brought my car to him after a botch job ‘detail’ was performed on it and he restored it to as good as new. He kept me informed throughout the process and was honest about what he could achieve. A total professional and a gent. See photo attached.

Took my Mercedes S Class for paint correction and ceramic coating after noticing quite a few marks in the paintwork and I’m genuinely blown away with the outcome. Erik’s attention to detail is unreal, he took the time to properly assess the paint and explain the process rather than just rushing into the job. You can tell Erik isn’t just offering a service, he genuinely specialises in paintwork and vehicle perfection. He is professional from start to finish, great communication throughout and someone who clearly takes pride in his craft. It’s rare to find someone with this level of knowledge and care for high end cars. Wouldn’t trust my S Class with anyone else now.

EC did a great job in getting my 14-year old S2000 back into a really clean and shiny condition. Two other items done were leather seat reconditioning and convertible hood cleaning/colour correcting/re-proofing - which has made it like new.

Decided to go with Erik and am really pleased with that decision. He is meticulous and the attention to detail is excellent. He totally looked after my Porsche, and now she pops! Really happy.

I've found a detailer who I can trust. Erik is a highly skilled artist who takes pride in his work. He was honest during the initial inspection which I appreciated - explaining what could be done and also what couldn't be done. The results were genuinely spectacular and the car has been transformed. It's a 23yr old M5 so the paint has been through the wars, but Erik worked his magic and he exceeded my expectations. Looking forward to coming back for maintenance washes!

I'm pretty good about washing my car regularly. Do I still need the Essential package?

The Essential package will significantly improve those issues. It includes decontamination treatments to remove water spots and a hand polish to reduce the appearance of light swirl marks.
I want to protect my car's paint, but I'm not looking for a full correction. Is the Essential package right for me?
Definitely! The Essential package includes a ceramic wax coating that provides a protective layer against the elements, helping your car stay cleaner for longer and making it easier to wash.
I've never had my car professionally detailed. Is the Essential package a good place to start?
Absolutely! The Essential package offers a comprehensive detailing experience at an entry-level price, introducing you to the benefits of professional car care.
What does the 'Prevention Focus' mean in the description?
It means the Essential package is designed to proactively protect your car's finish. The deep cleaning and ceramic wax coating help shield against future damage and make it easier to keep your car looking its best.
