FAQ's
Detailing goes beyond just a standard car wash. While a commercial car wash might clean (or valet) your vehicle’s exterior and vacuum the inside, detailing is a meticulous, in-depth process designed to restore your car’s appearance, inside and out. It involves thoroughly cleaning or decontaminating surfaces, as well as leather correction, paint correction (machine polishing), and applying protection to surfaces. Detailing can help maintain and increase a vehicle’s resale value, and extend its lifespan by protecting it from environmental damage, like UV rays, road grime, and moisture.
Each package is tailored to your individual needs based on the condition your vehicle arrives in and the desired end result. Contact us to discuss and receive a quote, otherwise you can visit the Services & Pricing page on the website for indicative costs.
Parx Detailing provide all customers with absolute peace of mind when carrying out any work on your car or bike, by being fully insured with one of the best detailing policies currently available. We also have 24 hour remote access CCTV in operation within our workshop, which is located within a secure gated CCTV monitored site, with key code entry.
Paint Correction reverses damage caused to the paint and is an alternative to getting your vehicle re-sprayed. Paint correction is the removal of surface defects using a range of polishing compounds that remove a minute amount of clear coat which removes the scratches from the paint’s surface. Finer compounds are then used to refine the surface leaving it glossy and defect free.
Depending on the service you choose, we would need your car for anything from half a day (for a pre sale detail) through to a week for multiple stages of paint correction and ceramic coating. Typically a single stage paint correction on a small to medium size car (ie. 911, M2, M3 etc) would take a full day. When Ceramic coating we would need your car for approx 0.5-0.75 day for prep and coating, and a further 24 hrs to allow time for the coating to cure before being exposed to the elements.
At Parx Detailing we are very proud of the Testimonials we have received as well as the Google reviews posted by our clients. It is our aim to provide a unique customer experience, as well as exceptional and affordable detailing services.

chr15f13mng14 April 2025 Professional setup and Dave is extremely knowledgeable.Recommended the preferred treatment for my home environment and car. Extremely happy with outcome. Looks like a new.. Will definitely be back with my other cars and for a refresh when due. Recommended highly.. louis davidson3 April 2025 Dave’s love of cars and the art of bringing older ones back to life, like my Alfa 916 Spider, is plain to see. The quality of the work speaks for it itself for a car that’s 27 years old, the paintwork looks amazing. Not the easiest job considering the various paint defects present beforehand. The extra elements to the service inc lifts into local village and free advice are really appreciated too. I will be bringing my cars Dave from now on! Charlie Hempstead1 April 2025 The vehicle I collected genuinely looked like a different car to the one I took in! The first thing I noticed on opening the driver’s door was that the handle even FELT clean to the touch. Very happy indeed with the workmanship and attention to detail. Michael Coldman26 March 2025 Delighted with Daves improvements to the paint finish of my Porsche 964. Following a glass out body refurbishment and respray to this beautiful porsche murano green, it was noted by the paint shop and me that the this colour in my preferred solid non metallic finish, was unforgiving for showing swirls etc from the polishing process. Agreeing that a detailer would be best for taking the extra time to get the paint to the finish desired, I chose Dave to do the work. He showed me the issues, explained his correction process and made the best use of his time to suit my budget. Dave has done a terrific job and with the addition of a ceramic coat i hope now to have the best chance to keep that finish in a tip top shape. I shall do my best! Thankyou Dave. Edouard Borgonovo26 March 2025 Brought in my v-strom after a few weeks of neglect in the cleaning department... and rode away with it looking nice and shiny! Only did a decontamination and coating, but it left the bike looking as good as the day I bought it! Thanks Dave 👌 Richie Martin21 March 2025 I can’t recommend Dave from Parx Detailing highly enough. Excellent job carried out with superb customer service. Very professional & great to deal with. Thanks Dave 👌 Will Painter11 March 2025 We bought a 6 year old Jaguar XF which turned out to have quite significant paint surface damage caused by poor washing. Dave was recommended to me by a friend as the “go-to” in our area for detailing and paint correction. Dave has worked absolute miracles on the car, which has been completely transformed - amazing results. Delighted with how the car has turned out thanks to Dave’s attention to detail and we’ll certainly be back in the future. Thanks! Simon Ockenden5 March 2025 Recent valet of our Motorhome, it is looking good as new again thanks to a full valet to remove the algae and grime. First class service throughout would recommend. Will be booked in again in six months time for another valet to keep it in top condition many thanks Paul Neal2 March 2025 I put my beautiful GSX1400 in to Dave Parx looking little worse for wear. I can't praise his work enough and would recommend him every time, well worth the 30 mile travelling, Faisal Chaudhry13 February 2025 A very good professional detailing service from Parx Detailing. Having asked to ceramic coat my new car, Dave pointed out all areas where paint correction was required prior to coating. I was impressed with the great attention to detail, thanks Dave!

Would really recommend using Dave, he’s experienced and exceptionally professional! He did a fantastic job
Dave provided a professional and efficient service and very pleased with the end result. I had a nasty chip and dent which is barely noticeable. I would highly recommend Parx Detailing to anyone who loves cars…. and already have!
Top job, very pleased!
Living in the countryside and using a car wash my paintwork has suffered but Parx Detailing restored the paint to new
Had my Cobra detailed by Dave at Parx Detailing. He came very highly recommended and I can quite happily say I’ll definitely use him again. Very professional from first contact to the finished product
My 8 year old R8 looks brand new as promised! Dave’s knowledge and enthusiasm, mixed with a healthy dash of OCD for all things petrol based, is huge! Money well spent
Parx Detailing offered a highly professional service and showed great attention to detail and went above and beyond to make my car look amazing again
Thank you for all the work on my Audi S2, I had been considering a respray. However having it detailed has made it look like new and at a fraction of the cost of repainting. Very happy, thanks again
Car looks beautiful and sparkly and the rain is just running off
Thanks again for your restoration work on my Thunder Cat, total transformation
Parx Detailing provided an excellent service and very knowledgeable. Faced with a very expensive bill for new lights, Dave had them looking like new as well as a very clean car. More than happy with results. I will be back again for detailing and Ceramic coating
Looks great, cracking job, thank you!
