Lotus Elise - Gloss Enhancement Workshop Detail Package - Cheltenham - Gloucestershire

I Had This Classic British sports car Lotus Elise in over the weekend for a Gloss Enhancement Detail and Protection Package at Kleen Machine. Ideally to improve the gloss and remove  some  minor swirls. Also get  the  wheels looking better and  they also needed buffing  over and  some  wheel sealant. The Guy has  owned  it for a few years and its  normally garaged  but  never had it professionally valeted  or  detailed.
The Enhancement Detail
This  Service is  ideal if  you wan that extra gloss out  of  your  classic or  sports  car also make it  a lot  easier to clean with my durable paint protection sealant and  wax. 
The Enhancement Detailing package is designed for vehicles that have picked up swirl marks, fine scratches and various other imperfections through bad washing and usage.  As a result of these the paintwork is left looking dull and hazy.  Our Light Paintwork Correction will remove light swirl marks and hazing via a single stage machine polish restoring a glossy, swirl free paintwork finish. ​

Prices

This service starts from £250,00 Each valet/Detail is individual due to the size and condition of the vehicle and an exact price will be given upon inspection of the vehicle and a price will be agreed before we start the valet on your vehicle.
