Professional detailer in Dayton, Cincinnati, or Sandusky??

I live in Dayton, but I work in Cincinnati, and I spend a lot of time in the summer in Sandusky, Ohio. Last summer I bought a lightly used Infiniti G37, and it came with a lot of swirl marks (supposedly the Infiniti clearcoat is notoriously soft). They're completely invisible until you catch the light just right, but it's enough to bother me. This spring/summer, I'm hoping to have the exterior professionally detailed to get rid of the swirls.

Unfortunately, the only Dayton detailers I can find are the large body shops and small carwashes. I don't really trust them when they say they'll get the swirls out, so I'm hoping to find a true professional who I can trust to give me a mirror finish.

Is there anyone near these cities who wants to do a full exterior detail for me?

I was going to suggest Todd as well.

Todd, is this true? Were you really named the top detailer in the Mid-West?

That may be stretching it a bit since there are so many talented detailers out there, but yes, I did make the list of 9 in the U.S. by AutoWeek magazine (said with a humble blush!). The closest to us was Ivan at Lustr in Chicago.

There are so many great detailers here on Autopia, and we could have filled up several pages with a directory. To be put on that list with the talent level of the other guys was quite an honor to say the least. What made it even more special was that I was recommended by Todd Helme (THO001). He is THE MAN!

Re: Professional detailer in Dayton, Cincinnati, or Sandusky??

Thanks for all the great help and information everyone!! I think all the PMs have been replied to, but Matt (mgproudfit) is going to help me out while he's home for spring break. He was the first to PM me, and he's also the closest to me.

So, with his permission, I'll post up some before/after shots after we get it all finished up (I say "we" because I have no way to drop my car off, so I'm gonna be his assistant while he works).

Anyway, thanks again everyone!!

Andrew,

It's great that you were able to find a fellow Autopian to help you bring your G back to life. Those are stunning cars for sure!

You and Matt have fun, and be sure to give us plenty of photos to drool over!
