Jake:
I used to valet for an insurance approved body shop in Slough.
When i started there the valeters used too throw water in the cars general direction and then hoover it in under 5 mins.
I got rid of them sharpish!!
When i did the cars i spent a minimum of 1.5hours per car.
I used to polish the whole car and even steam the engine bays.
I never had a complaint.

If your not happy you can argue with the garage and arange a mobile valeter to come to you, clean the car to your specification and bill the garage.
PS, i know a great valeter  :wink:
Ask thermidorthelobster (David), He did his disco the other week.

Colin 009:
Hi Jake I will be in touch,

when I've had an insurance assessor look the motor over, They still have to correct the work done by another b/shop in march this year.

Jake:
No problem Colin
Hope you get it sorted out quickly
 :roll:

I work in a small garage and do the bodywork. We also clean the cars before they are returned to the customer. We also put covers on the seats and dash to stop this problem. Have a look over the car and see each body panel that may have overspray on it. eg BONNET , ROOF , WING TOPS as you may find that they have not covered the whole car when spraying. If you spray a door bottom the spray rises in the booth or garage and then settles on the roof bonnet wingtops if they have not covered it you will be able to see and maybe feel it run your hand over the bonet gently to feel if its rough and not smooth. Sounds to me like they don't give a s**t....may be worth a look....

Hi Miniman, this overspray is the problem I've had with the first repair done in march, its all over the rear and offside yet the repair was done to the nearside front. :evil: Have tryed t-cutting it to remove but it wont come off. :evil:  so I'll be wanting a full rub down and laquer and polish.
