Default Paint Correction @ Autoglym HQ!

My company has an account with Autoglym as we purchase lots of abrasives for exterior train cleaning. It occurred to me yesterday to drop my account manager an email yesterday to see if she knew anyone through her contacts that could offer me a full paint correction service to remove all my swirls and blemishes.

Got an email back saying she’d see what she could do.

Few hours later I got a call from a guy at Autoglym HQ in Letchworth. I’m going to spend the whole day up there with one of the Autoglym boffins having 1-on-1 training on how to use the buffing machines and chemicals and they’ll be removing all the swirls from my paintwork in the process. The account manager is also coming down to take me out for lunch.

All free of charge!

Just waiting for some potential dates for me to attend in the near future!

RESULT!

Spook, the guy that has just detailed my car (Dazzler) went on that and he loved every minute.
Came away with some freebies too !

He is now trying to book the same sort of thing with Anne Summers
