Yea, thats got to be the guy. You can see him applying the wax by hand. No one else in their right mind would do this

I just wish I was as mindless to command £7,000 + per detail!

Zymol Carnauba Waxes and Glazes (application with bare hands):
You need patience for this process; it is time consuming to apply wax with bare hands (don’t forget to remove rings) but the results are worth it. Put a very small amount of the glaze to the palm of your hand. Use the warmth of your hands to melt the Carnauba. With your hand, gently apply the glaze in a light, even pattern over no more than three or four-square feet of painted surface. Let stand for 30 to 60 seconds. Using moderate to heavy pressure, wipe very slowly with a 100% Cotton Micro-fibre Alpine DF-Towel™ (folded once) to a brilliant lustre before wax is totally dry. Wait three to four hours, and then lightly buff the paint again to perfect the shine.

Hmm, I wonder if he can fit me in.

If I was filthy rich I would ask him to detail my TL-S just to blow his mind. It definitely wouldn't be a Veyron as I think they're butt ugly.
