I went and got the Lib 'intensived' by Damien @ Final Inspection. Results are remarkable! Car looks amazing! Seriously Money well spent.. When I got the car from it was covered in holograms, swirls and general shithouse maintenance, it was driving me up the wall.

Thought i would share, if you want to give your car some love in Melbourne. Damien is your guy.

Intensive.

Subaru Paint (especially Obsidian Black) is one of the softest going around.. Damien preferred to spend a full 2 days with the car. @ a cost of $488. Its not cheap. But the results and quality of the work is second to none. The car looks amazing. Just want to get this ran away. Give her a quick wash and get some photos done :)

Nope. Outside only. Interior was smick. 8)

Seems exy, but he spent 16hrs with the car. Thats a lot of time. So roughly $30ph, including materials. For a world class detailer (who has and does do work for Ferrari/Lamborghini) i dont mind.

Very nice! indeed, my car needs a detail to that level, but first i need to get my front and rear bar resprayed and a few scratches sorted before a job on that scale would do it justice.

Damien works great. I admit it since he already got a long experience. And your libs looks great too.

@gambit

I'm sorry last time I didn't call you because I got my uni worked and I got back to my hometown till Mid Feb. I can do your car on beginning of March.


Cheers

its worth every bit of coin......

i had my car detailed shortly after delivery, i was shown how to apply OCW a spray and wipe wax/paint sealant, the car is almost 3 years old and the paint still looks perfect..... when its clean of course. :angry2:

Cam, just make sure you maintain it, remember the pre rinse and two bucket washing method, it will save your paint from swirl and scratches.
Not a soobi anymore, but still slightly dirty

Yer, I workshopped with Damien about 5 years ago on washing techniques. Got a lot of useful tips! :D

Its amazing how good the paint looks when properly done, and it can be a deal sealer when you come to sell! Especially with Performance Cars. :assassin:

He closed it down.. too busy (no life) so went back to a Garage in Cambelfield. Which is some very very private space. It was great the whole 2 days he had the car, it was the only car there
