Gloss Enhancement

A quick machine polish to put the gloss back. It is a shine job, not a repair — the paint comes back up bright and reflective, but scratches and swirls stay where they are. Those need correcting, which is what the machine polishing packages are for.

3 – 5 hrs From £165

What this detail gives you

01

Gloss and depth back

Flat, tired paint comes back up bright. The difference is most obvious on dark colours.

02

Quick and affordable

A couple of hours and the cheapest machine work we do, because it is a polish rather than a correction.

03

Honest about what it is not

If you can catch a fingernail in it, or the sun shows cobwebbing, this will not take that out. We will tell you before you book.

Confused? Call us directly

Need the scratches out, not just the shine back? That is correction work rather than a polish — the stage 1, 2 and 3 packages are on the machine polishing page, and we will tell you honestly which one your paint needs.

Regular — hatchback, saloon or estate. Fiesta, Golf, A3, 3 Series, Octavia. Large — SUV, 4x4 or 7-seater. Range Rover, X5, Discovery, Kodiaq, Transporter. Vans are quoted separately. These are starting prices — a car in poor condition takes longer, and we agree the exact figure with you before we start, never after.

In detail

Is this the right detail for your car?

Who the Gloss Enhancement detail is for

The Gloss Enhancement is for a car whose paint has gone flat rather than damaged — dull, tired, lost its reflection, but not visibly scratched. It is the quickest and cheapest machine work we do, and it is what we recommend before a photograph, a sale or a show when time and budget are both short.

When to choose something else

If there are scratches or swirls you want gone rather than brightened, this is the wrong package and we will say so — that is correction work, and the stage 1, 2 and 3 machine polishing packages are what remove it. If you want the result to last years rather than months, a ceramic coating is the thing to add.

What the visit looks like

Two and a half to three hours. We wash the car properly, decontaminate the paint so the polish is working on a clean surface, then machine polish for gloss. Nothing is done to the interior, which is exactly why it costs what it does.

What you are left with

Paint that looks bright and deep again, with a sealant on top to hold it for a few months. The marks that were in it before are still in it — this was never the job that removes them. If that is what you wanted, say so and we will quote the correction instead.

Still not sure? Send a few photos on WhatsApp and we will tell you which detail your car actually needs — including when that is a cheaper one than you were expecting.
