Title: waxoiling etc Disco V8 Plymouth area
Post by: newto4 on June 25, 2007, 13:32:52: Hi Guys i am after some help. I am looking for a recommended garage in the Plymouth/Tavistock area for steam cleaning underneath plus applying black waxoil. the box sections also should be injected at the same time. I have spoke to the guy at Tavistock next to Waterways & he wants Â£220 plus vat. seems a bit steep to me

Â£220 sounds a bit cheap to me if its a propper job.

TBH they seem pretty good as the guy next door does all the work for waterways, at least when I said the sunroofs leak they actually had the headlining down to investigate! not many garages would do that.

I waxoyled my RRC a few years ago. What a right royal pain in the rear. I'd pay Â£220 to avoid the mess, aggro, time spent, cost of waxoyl, etc.

worth it, but a pain in the behind. and big job and i hated it... dusty... just a messy job.

waterways of tavistock definitely my friend not sure if they will apply the waxoyl but they have a very good steam cleaning machine and theyre cheap
