Hi Jim. The best we can hope for in life is that we, in some way, positively influence another person. For me, you have done that and continue to do so. This weekend, for the first time, I attacked the gloss piano black A-Pillar on my wife's Lexus, having been too timid to do so until now. There was a bad scratch that, for months, has bothered me and, by being methodical and careful, like you are, I prevailed and the scratch is gone. So thanks for helping all us weekend warriors along the way, Jim. I know I speak for so many when I say I look forward to each new video you create for us. Take care. Stay awesome.
Your work ethic and quality standards are an inspiration. Well done! Mind yourself though, you can put in too many hours and the body will let you down!
As others have stated your a gem Jim, please don't stop creating such great content for us, your an inspiration for me personally, both in your professional attention to details but your honesty and work ethics too, I have watched A LOT of detailing channels and at last I've found the one for me, my oasis. Cheers from Poland mate!
As much as I enjoy the process of watching the car be tranformed, I'm equally impressed by the organization and the way you created and use the space in which you're doing the work. You may want to look into whether professional societies (sales or trades) would bring you in (and pay you) to speak about the process you use for that aspect of your work. -
Yes as most people are saying, THANK YOU for your time and effort. Also the GOPRO/CAMERA on your head, really good, lets me kid myself that I could clean a car. All the best.
I don’t consider one better than the other because they have different way of doing things , they are both masters at their craft , one thing to note is that Larry is a Chemist and creates most of its products, doesn’t make him better but it counts when it comes to business
An awesome car made to look awesome again. Really good to know there are people out there like you who know their stuff. First class work. Thanks for sharing your work and this stunning car.
You are a beast Jim. 70 hours!! Wow! You made it through to the end, all the while delivering the White Details professionalism and that famous attention to meticulous details. You should be very proud of this one. I was exhausted watching it. I really can’t come up with the words to describe how impressive this is. I appreciate your profession even more! 👍👍
Take a breath pal he didnt do the 70 hours straight he also had the weekend off. Also hes just holding a polisher in his hand. You obviously sit behind a desk all day.
Superb video Jim. Before this , I used to just wash , chamoisdry the car , then polish it !!! , nowI I am bloody addicted to detailing, thanks to all the links you've put in your vids to some great products . From wool mits to waffle-weave towels and Bilt Hamber Auto Wheel to wheel and body brushes....I'm now hooked !!!, regularly checking DetailingWorld for tips, and can no longer 'just wash' the car ever again. The neighbours think I am nuts , but the car is cleaner that it has ever been !!!! ...I'll never be the same again !!!! :) :) ...Cheers !
I hired an amateur recently to help me detail my own car and within 10 minutes he put a dent in the door. On the plus side I didn't let him loose on a customers vehicle.
I wish all potential customers, to any detailing/ valeting companies, would watch this video first. Watch and see where your money is going. Watch and see how hard this guy, and others like him, actually work to achieve the result THEY want, so you, the punter are happy. Detailing and valeting, is not a bucket and sponge job...believe me I know. Granted, this is an extreme case of cleansing, and detailing ( Fantastic outcome by the way ) but, customers....please....if you only want to spend a tenner, then go to your local car wash or supermarket. It still amazes me that the general public think this line of work is money for old rope. Its not, its hard work. Great video...Subscribed.
You are the car Doctor - the effort and dedication you put in on that job is second to none. You turned around something that most would think was mint to start with into something that looks better than when new. Extremely well done and I love those garaged facilities wow.....
Nice work! I saw the pain when you where done working the front bumper. Kills the shoulders and elbows! 20 yrs doing this is recognize it! Beautiful shop!!!
Thank you Jim for bringing us along with you on this Bentley journey. Seeing the physical work involved with this job, but also how you are able to keep focus over such long periods of time warrants huge respect. Cheers from Oz.
Watching you in these videos is like watching the famous "les Petites Mains" of the major French fashion houses produce their beautiful pieces. Similar fastidious attention to detail, superior skills, and your savior faire in making calls on how to best proceed with a problem. It's a rare pleasure to watch someone who is very, very good working.
The skill level required to correct paintwork so badly damaged is incredible, we share your frustration of the damage caused by bodyshops and main dealers, the tips & tricks you share is very much appreciated and I have sat through many of your videos from start to finish, great work!
Thanks Jim great episode, I learned a lot from this that I can apply when I start on mine. My Bentley has seen some poor respray in the past too, such a shame. Hopefully I will get it looking half as good as this. Keep smiling eh.
Great job and a lovely car. I would love to see the clients reactions to a transformation like this but no one ever shows it, perhpas you could consider it as an idea if they are willing.
I clay bar, polish and wax my own vehicles and know first hand how much time each step takes. I can appreciate how you brought the paint back to life. Hopefully the car stays this way for many years.
Wow, that car has certainly seen some action !. Really felt for you on that one, that was some serious hard work. One thing is also obvious, you do need a Terry replacement. You cannot work on your own. And yes with your level of paint perfection i would think you can certainly charge more.
@@nazgulzg Resigned and moved on to do some sort of a project on his own. He has his own youtube channel making stuff from old reclaimed parts. Nothing to do with detailing.
42 years driving, dozens of cars, trucks, vans, motorcycles...70 hours is longer than ALL of them combined, maybe even double the time...it takes 5 minutes to go through a car wash...My new vehicles got that maybe 4 times a year...
Hi Jim ,greetings from California , we have a mutual friend , Mark R from Kirkby , you worked on his R32 . he told me how thorough you are and now I'm totally hooked on your channel . this is my retirement job in the making . keep up the awesome work sir Jon
Just wonderful workmanship. This attention to detail, even the smallest tic breathes quality, persistence and several other superlatives. You Sir, have the work ethic of yesteryear!
I dont record my jobs, discuss my customers or what they pay for jobs.... Customer privacy is important and they appreciate it. If I need to speak about them, they are just. 'I have a customer that ..................' could be almost anyone. Name, location and what they drive isnt mentioned.
Probably one of the best detailing videos I have seen on UA-cam yet. Fair play to you fella - that was a lot of work - and you didn't let your standards slip at all. Hat off to you. The body shop that did the paint-work should be wearing stetsons and spurs!
There are a few of us in California that are doing work at this level, however we do not advertise as the majority of people are not willing to even consider paying 10% of the cost to perform work like this.
It`s a very very good Video from detailing, and a very good work-place and good polish from MENZERNA, its my favorit for polish .I`m detailing in germany.
I was shocked to here that you don't charge within the $ range you mentioned. I understand not all white detail packages are equal. FAR FROM IT. Every car is unique and should be priced accordingly. I think that's the most important part, somehow communicating a way with clients (when you don't see the car in person ahead of quoting) that the fee structure is variable and to give them a wide range. If you charged anything less than 5000 pounds for this job, I'm sorry, your time/skills/attention to detail is worth far more. Love your work, and thank you for sharing it with us!
@@mrmasterplaster999 tbh I would say somewhere in between the 2. I'd say for what is essentially 70 hours of labour in the automotive sector, 2k isn't really a high enough charge, by the time he takes out utilities, business rates, vat, consumables etc etc
@@mrmasterplaster999 You get what you pay for. I wouldn't at all be surprised if he's added 10k to the value of the car here. Everyone thinks they can clean and polish a car, but this quality level is very rare. This is craftsmanship.
You need to be looking to increase your prices. Hell, if you wish to keep them as they are, I can give you 365 days of work every year. No trouble to drive up from London to pick a car up and drop off when I can double the money you charge.
Never imagined that a 21,000 mile Bentley costing 100k could have paintwork in such poor condition. From a distance it looked fine but when an expert points out all the flaws it's astonishing. Don't know if the owner will ever appreciate how much correction and work has gone into this car but I certainly do. Fascinating watching this tired example brought back to showroom condition. Yes I agree, I don't know how much you're being paid but it should be doubled. Your attention to detail is a joy to behold even down to torquing up the wheel bolts, nice to see. These Bentley's are a gorgeous shape and it's a wonderful sight to see this beauty sparkling and gleaming as it should. Marvellous.
Jim White: Marathon Man! Amazing dedication to your craft and your subscribers. I don’t know what you do charge, but as you say, I can imagine it’s enough. Amazing turnaround on a behemoth of a car.
Dont understand how anyone can give this the thumbs down! Probably people who work in rubbish body shops and sand over glass and trims ect! Keep up the great work Jim. 👌
I'm a detailer not by profession but by passion since day 1 and from experience not all detailers would recommend taking this long to do a car but for me personally we are all different and this is a long but wonderful process he really gave it all in effort to make this car a beauty again wonderful content
knocked it out the ball park again jim, your a legend. youll be pleased to know that when i was a bodyshop polisher i never let my work go out in that condition. got to have pride in your work. keep up the great work jim .
We all appreciate you taking the time out your long working days to create content for us Jim. Keep up the awesome work.

Huge respect 🤘

A work of art...both the car and the work you did... you're a true artist!
This is the first video of yours I’ve seen, and I must say I’m impressed.
Yes me too. What dedication and professionalism.
I’m 4 years behind this video release but it still as pertinent today as it was then! Brilliant work! So overwhelmingly satisfying to watch!
There are no words Jim. Staggering. Best hour of my week. Huge respect, keep it up.
A lot of people don’t understand just how much work goes into what you do, that Bentley looks beautiful!!
THIS. THIS IS THE LEVEL I WANT TO ACHIEVE. BIG RESPECT.
Yes as most people are saying, THANK YOU for your time and effort. Also the GOPRO/CAMERA on your head, really good, lets me kid myself that I could clean a car. All the best.
"That's one big bastard" good stuff marra like your outlook.
Like I said before, severely underrated channel. This is like the UK version of AMMO NYC.
This is better in my opinion.
It's definitely better than AMMO. Jim shows his work from start to finish. I haven't seen anything remotely close to this on AMMO's channel
Far better than AMMO IMO too ;=)
I don’t consider one better than the other because they have different way of doing things , they are both masters at their craft , one thing to note is that Larry is a Chemist and creates most of its products, doesn’t make him better but it counts when it comes to business
Except this isn’t a commercial trying to push his own products.

Wow. I cannot believe someone did such an appalling paint job on such a beautiful thing. Not to mention an expensive thing! Great rescue job Jim!
Great Job Jim! You can see the effort you put in to it.. And it was a huge job, we can see that on the video. Nothing but respect to you!!
One only has to look at the neatness of your shop to feel confident that a professional resides there! Loved the video !👍
Fantastic job. One of my absolute most favorite cars. An epic job for an epic car.
If you think hiring an expert is expensive, try hiring an amateur
