I want to get my car detailed because I can never do a good enough job myself. Do you guys know anyone good around melbourne? I want to spend around $100-$150 on it inside and out.

where is melb are you?
At the moment, you might find it hard to get in for detailing in certain places... a mate wanted his car done and the waiting list was 5 weeks (people don't wash their car as much, so they get it detailed more often)

And by detailing, what we talking here... exterior polish and wax, with interior detailing? trims? Might have a place sorted if you're in the northern subs

Yeh im in the northern suburbs. Im just looking for a interior steam clean, exterior cut and polish and cleaned up in general. As much as I try I can never get my car as clean as I want. Im located in Epping. Last time I took my car to the place at the plaza here they had teenagers doing it that had no idea and forgot to wash my mirrors and windows so I want somewhere thats good!

Mate, from Epping area too! Yeah, I wouldn't trust those plaza teenagers... wouldn't know f**k all 'bout cleaning... they don't look too clean themselves lol.

Was going to put you onto the Heidelberg... except that I'd probably polish it all myself...

I recommend meguiar's 3 step range. The cleaner, polish and wax is MINT!!! worth a bit, but the finish is a hell of a lot better than any detailing joint! Ive polished my car 3 times now and still havn't used half the bottles yet.

but if you're after the spash of cash... heidelberg is the go

I have used a couple of polishes and stuff but I can never get it as good as I would like. Im not looking for a sparkling finish but just something good. Its mainly the interior that needs a steam clean. Where in heidelberg is the place?

I've used VIP car care a few times, and have been pleased with their results. I believe they only use meguairs products.
