Not discounting the guy's abilities though. Clearly he must be very good to be working on all those high end cars, and it's quite possible Fifth Gear production wanted him to simplify the process as much as possible. But I'm not blown away based on that clip alone.

after he pressure washes and foams the car, he can wash with one bucket because most of the dirt is gone. also, the water he uses doesn't leave any spots, so he can wash in the sun as much as he wants. the paint stays safe

this guy is flown around the world to detail cars, and he could be the best detailer in the world!
