5th Gear detailer segment

Just wondered if it was anyone on here who was shown on 5th Gear detailing an MC12? The guy was called Paul, and I think the company was Miracle Detail. Some of the discussion points if you missed it:
  • £55 for a "citrus based degreaser" - sounds like someone is buying MC2 instead of Virosol
  • Seemed to use one Grit Guard bucket with a sponge; no mitts or foam gun.
  • Sonus green clay made an appearance!
  • £6k tub of Zymol to finish applied by hand.

The show is repeated at 12 midnight tonight, this segment is about 15 mins into the show after the Audi Q7 review.

Anyone else see it?

Thanks, I'd missed that thread first time around. Just goes to show that for Pro detailers, making contacts and marketing yourself is as important as the products or methods you use.
