Any forumites know of a good detail guy in Northern Arizona? Specifically the flagstaff, sedona, prescott area?

My SC needs some serious buffing out of surface swirls etc.
Thanks

jimmer!

have you ever tried doing the buffing yourself?
there's several threads that provide the entire process in detail.

buffers aren't that expensive and the process really
creates a bond with you 430.
the first time you get that mirror look, you'll be sold and proud
on doing-it-yourself.

The other task to do yourself is clay baring. I did it, took my time, a couple of hours and was amazed at the results. If your not sure, YouTube has some video on the technique.

Thought about doing the clay bar thing. Getting a buffer i'm gonna hold off on.

I've been waxing my cars 4-6 times a year forever with Klasse all in one, but this one seems to need special attention.
A friend of mine suggested Beals autobody in Prescott. They wanted it for 2 days!

Gonna let a pro have at it once i find a good one that wants it for 4-5 hours

jimmer!

that's one reason to work on it yourself (2 days).
but to have a pro give the royal treatment
and get all the fine swirl marks out would work
too, if you can be without you 430.
2 days sounds about right to do it right.
when I polish and wax I take a holiday or long wkend,
spreading the process out over a couple of days.

here's a cool detailing story...
