The 3 day course was a great course it caters for all levels of experience. Chris was a fantastic facilitator and had plenty of knowledge and understanding.
A great blend of theory and practical lots of different equipment to try with the polishing. Great product knowledge of Sonax and the brand.Time flew by each day really appreciated the extra hours that were put in.
Excellent value for the money I will definitely be changing over to the brand, Aftercare looks great not tried it yet but if anything like the three days it will be first class. Who knew you could take a car full of mould and dirt, not been washed for 3 years and turn it into something special.

Recently attended the 3 day course, loved every minute!

This is a very professional, well structured course. I learned so much during the 3 days and finished full of confidence, ready to detail any car.

Special mention to Chris, who is a true pro, he's a fantastic trainer, very knowledgeable, passionate and explains everything so well, in thorough detail. He's a great character too.

I'm truly grateful for the skills you've taught me Chris, and will keep in contact.

I completed the 3 day training course. It was amazing! Our trainer, Chris, was engaging, so knowledgeable and super supportive. It involved theory, demos and lot's of hand's on practice. It is an intensive course, but so enjoyable. It covered everything from engine bays to Ceramic coatings. I can honestly say I learnt so much. Highly recommend!! Thanks Chris. Had a fantastic 3 days!

Amazing experience and great training! Big thanks to Chris Channon — a true pro, very friendly and experienced. I learned a lot and got huge hands-on experience that will help me in the future.

Really impressed with Sonax products — they work perfectly! From now on, I’ll be using only Sonax. 💪

Had the pleasure recently of attending the Sonax 3 day detailing course. The course was amazing. Chris is a really nice, chatty chap and very knowledgeable. I found the 3 day course EXTREMELY eye opening even after spending a year working under another 'detailer' as well as a year working for myself before doing this course. The course isn't a load of corporate stuff. Chris teaches you proper methods and how to approach problems in a logical way to problem solve. Something that's immediately apparent with Chris and the course is how well thought out it is but equally informative. Id highly recommend the course for any valeter or enthusiast who believes they know anything or everything. I can guarantee you it'll teach you more than the internet ever would.
