What Is The One-Day Foundation Course?

Our tailored Foundation Course, in particular, is a great introduction to the art of car detailing. It's perfect for those that are new to the world of detailing. During the day, you'll be taught the basics of detailing; from the wash stage through to the decontamination and finishing stages. The day will also touch on the basics of machine polishing and the order in which products should be used in. The course will play out across one day from 9-4:30pm and are held on a Saturday, with a maximum booking capacity of 10 attendees only. Keeping the course capacity relatively low ensures that the course is intimate enough for you to ask any questions you may have during the day and to allow you to get the most from your time with us.

What Will You Learn?

During the day, we will go through the basic individual stages of the detailing process. You'll not only learn how to properly prepare your vehicle for the contact wash stage, but you'll receive detailer training across the basics of decontamination, machine polishing, and how to properly finish a vehicle to a high level. You'll also learn how to use our products to their fullest ability. We will ensure there is a car on site that we will all work on while you're with us so you can then go and apply your new-found skills and knowledge to your own vehicle at home. You will gain an understanding of how to clean your engine, through to the finishing touches and waxing. We'll even throw in some useful hints, tips and tricks to tackling some of the finer details. Covering the basics of this wide range of stages guarantees you'll leave at the end of the day with the confidence to detail and maintain your own vehicle.
