Best Local Detailer...

Can anyone reccomend a good local detailer? I need to get my turbo clayed/waxed and get my wheels polished. I also need to get my Rover done as it came from the factory with a good amount of swirl in the paint.

Just can't find the time to do this myself anymore. Any leads would be appreciated.

Dave

Dave, this guy is fantastic. He did my wife's SL and it looked like glass. Unfortunately, he reports that he is not taking any new clients, maybe if you mention my name, he'll take you on. Here is a picture of the car when he was finished.

Dave, if that guy doesn't do it, I'll do it for you. I used to own a detail business back in NJ and need to do my car anyway. Let me know if Mario's guy doesn't take you on.

I've used Billy at Amazing Results on many of my cars. On two of them (older cars), he did an excellent job of reviving the paint when I went to sell them. He's an on-site detailer, so he'll do the job at your house or work location. 703.678.6900

Yea, I also don't see you doing detail at 90* heat. See you at the crap eating meet.

The only person that touches my cars is Raja. He also did my full hood/fenders clear bra.

Excellent person and he is very good at what he does with lots of experience. He is also very into cars (he is a member on the forums) which is a big plus.
