    Well guys,

    I am hoping to do a long overdue cleaning job on the car. Inside and out.
    It's pretty bad.
    I have nowhere around the house suitable to do it, don't even have an outside tap.!
    Just wondering if there are any garages that allow guys park up and do a job on there cars themselves. Access to a hoover, carpet cleaner, buffer etc would be great also.

    Anyone know of anywhere like this in Dublin or the surrounding areas?
    I have tomorrow off work so was hoping to spend a good few hours at it then.

    Cheers.

    None that Im aware of currently!
    The now gone out of business detailer.ie attempted to offer this, with not a whole lot of success as far as Im aware.
    I'd imagine its a relatively small market...95% of people are happy enough bringing their car to the local jet wash and vacuum.

    Thanks. That's what I thought alright. I think the guys in pitlane offered this before they closed. Could be corrected on that one.

    You might be better off giving it to the guys in DetailingShed or one of those crowds in Dublin. They would do a top job and give you a point from which to start keeping up the cleanliness if you know what I mean.

    I considered that, only funds are tight and I have done plenty of valeting in the past so am confident I can do a good job.! Prob not as good as the pro detailers but more than acceptable all the same.
    I'd imagine a detailer will set me back in excess of €100? I'm hoping to shampoo the carpets, full clean inside, windows, full de-tar, clay, wax etc.. also the alloys are beyond filthy so want to do a good job on them.

    For a full job including claying etc. i don't think you'd be getting it done for 100. You might get a valet rather than a detailling job i'd say
