They leave them a bit shody now to help prop up the supercar detailing business. Its good for the economy.

Might be respected but wouldn't let him was my 10 year old clio.
If I'm paying that much money I want someone who at the very least looks the part.

i didn't mean it that way i know you shouldn't judge people on first impressions, but they do count.
whenever you see blukoo's brother in pictures, he always seems to look smart when detailing the cars.
doesn't need to wear tracksuit bottoms from primark. some nice simple black trousers would suffice.

would you use a builder on how he looks? no, you would do it on the reputation he has and work he has done previously, he could turn up in a leopard thong and a pink wig for all i care if he does a good job does it really matter.

Since we're using ridiculous comparisons, if a surgeon came to before you're heart operation wearing trackies and a JJB t-shirt you'd shit yourself.
A persons appearance and how much pride they take in it is 'usually' a reflection of their overall attitude in general.
No disrespect to this guy he's obviously shit hot at his job and fair play to him.

they are in an outside enviroment involving materials and liquids which undoubtedly means they will get dirty...... what someone wears or how they dress has no real true reflection on their work or their skills.
PS - if the surgeon had saved 100k people with no deaths again he could come dressed in what he wanted as he has already proven himself? some people need to get a grip
