Default Looking for a super detailer

Does anybody have a recommendation for a shop that can do some finish buffing and the really give my car a front to back detailing? The car has some spots that got left out in the final phases of the next to last and last finish buffing.

I would also like them to detail the entire car. Engine compartment included.

The car is headed to Joe Koch's shop in Sycamore on Saturday for him to get my tranny issues worked out and then chassis dyno'ed. So I'd like to get it cleaned up after that so it can get put away for winter.

Thanks in advance!

-ed

Ed,

It may not help where you are, but I know of at least one in the Dallas area that could make it "show car" ready for you at a reasonable rate and timeframe.

Are you looking for the best it can look? If so, you might want to consider wet-sanding, etc. PM me if that's what you want.
