Fresh 75-Plates, Fresh Protection at SD Group
Callum Foster
It’s been an exciting start to September here at Spotless Detailing Group, with our workshops in both Perth and Elgin buzzing as customers collect their brand new 75-plate cars. There’s nothing quite like that new car feeling, and we love helping owners make it last.
Protecting New Cars the Right Way
Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve been carrying out a fantastic mix of:
- XPEL Paint Protection Film (PPF) – a clear protective layer that shields your paintwork from stone chips, scratches, and everyday wear.
- Gtechniq Ceramic Coatings – a liquid chemical that bonds with your paintwork to repel dirt, add incredible gloss, and defend against swirl marks and the tough Scottish weather.
These treatments don’t just enhance a car’s appearance; they give owners complete peace of mind. Knowing your pride and joy is safeguarded means you can enjoy driving without worrying about long term damage.
Why We Love What We Do
Our favourite part of the job is seeing customers drive away knowing their car won’t just look stunning on day one, but will continue to look its best for years to come. We’re truly grateful to be trusted with so many new vehicles, and we're proud to play a part in keeping that showroom fresh finish intact.

Living in the UK means dealing with unpredictable weather, rainy commutes, and winter grime - all of which take a toll on your visibility behind the wheel. While most people focus on paint protection like ceramic coatings and PPF, one of the most overlooked upgrades is glass coating, and it might just be the game changer your driving experience needs.

The Truth About "Lifetime" Ceramic Coatings: What You're Really Getting
What We Look For During a Paint Inspection One of the things that surprises people the most when they visit us at Spotless Detailing is just how much time we spend inspecting a car before we actually start working on it. To some, it might look like we’re just staring at paintwork under weird lights, but trust us, there’s a reason behind it. Before we even think about picking up a machine polisher or applying a ceramic coating, we take a deep dive into the condition of your vehicle’s paint. This initial inspection is absolutely crucial to getting the best results, and it’s where the magic really begins.
At Spotless Detailing, we take immense pride not only in the work we deliver but in the team that makes it all happen. From expertly installed paint protection film (PPF) to flawless ceramic coatings, every service we offer is backed by a passionate and hard-working crew who genuinely care about their craft. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at the people driving Spotless Detailing forward, across both our Perth and Elgin branches. First up, Spotless Detailing - Perth:
It’s a question we get asked all the time at Spotless Detailing - how often should I wash my car? The truth is, the answer depends on a few key factors: how often you drive it, the conditions it’s exposed to, and how important long term protection and appearance are to you. Whether your car’s coated in Gtechniq ceramic protection or it’s just your daily driver in need of care, here’s our guide to keeping your vehicle looking its best.
Washing your car seems simple enough — bucket, soap, rinse — job done, right? But there are a few surprisingly common mistakes we see time and time again that can dull your paint, introduce swirl marks, or even reduce the life of your ceramic coating or paint protection film (PPF). Here are 5 car washing mistakes you’ll want to avoid if you’re keen to keep your car looking its best, plus a few tips from the Spotless Detailing team on what to do instead.
If your car's paintwork has lost its luster due to swirl marks, light scratches, or oxidation, a 2-stage paint correction might be the solution to restore its showroom shine.
