    I am considering investing in a full external detail/polish for my pride and joy/A6... including a hydroponic/gtechniq type treatment.

    Can anyone provide any details on a company they have used/trust. Also any info on process/time required/costs involved. Cheers.

    Nice!
    Can't help with Glasgow local detailer experience but you could try on Detailing World (my second favourite forum ). Depending on the job, it can be anything from couple of hundred to close to a grand... The proper Gtechniq application will require overnight curing so you are looking at two day job. Some use lamps to do this but all good things take time.
    From experience, as I had my car done when new (also "G stuff"), it is amazing as with proper maintenance, when washed, it still looks as new.

    Thanks for the info guys. Yes that forum worth a look. I had checked the gtechniq range of products; is that the hydroponic range that is specced to last for a number of years? Need something that protects the paint/body/wheels... lasts for a good period of time ... and aids cleaning etc... wouldn't mind investing in a few hundred quids worth of work... is this gtechniq range/costs?

    Thanks for the rgk reference A6S... shall check out there range... cheers...

    Gordon at Defined Detail has a good rep but he doesn't do gtechniq. He does offer other ceramic coatings though.
    The gtechniq website will list approbved suppliers in your area. The latest coating is Crystal Serum which is a pro only application and you need to leave your car for a couple of days. The website also has an approximate cost for the coating plus additional polishing etc. Enhancement package about £500, full correction about £1000 (very rough estimate).
