Can someone explain the pros/cons of "west sanding?" Do most detailers offer the service? Does it take anything off the clear c? Is it another means of polishing?

Any form of polishing shaves of a portion of the clearcoat. It is a matter millimicrons in thickness on the lesser abrasive polishes. Wet sanding (most detailers go to about 3000 grit) is best left in the hands of pros and should only be done when the paint has deep swirls, pitting etc after a good measurment of the paint thickness.

OK - thanks for clarifying.
