Hey!

I'm Ash from Durban, SA. My ride is a almost stock VW Polo 6R in white. I am a very recent addition to the "detailing" world. I was introduced to it by LawrenceSA who kindly gave me a beginners tutorial and constantly helping me with advice.

Since then I've been building up a collection of supplies, mostly for maintenance as opposed to paint correction. I am a weekend warrior (no commercial interest) who is just looking to learn a thing or two (or a hundred :laughing:)
