New member looking for a detailer in Chicagoland area

SaturdaysGS · 11-16-06, 02:17

Hi guys, I'm new here and have a Jasper Green 97.5 Buick Regal GS. I picked it up with 81k on the ticker back in April of 2004, and now it has 142k on it.

Now down to the nitty gritty. The paint is rough feeling, its really swirled, and has light to moderate scratches. In my (very novice) opinion it atleast badly needs to be clayed. I honestly dont know what products you use to restore the shine and depth as well as to remove the swirls and scratches. I'm looking for that to be taken care of as well as a complete interior / exterior detail. Maybe even underhood. FWIW it has a tan interior with leather (well part leather part vinyl) seats.

I live on the SouthSide of Chicago right by Evergreen Park, OakLawn, Mount Greenwood, Merrionette Park, etc. and very close to Palos, and Orland Park. I dont mind a little bit of a drive.

Thanks
-Nick

Custom Cars Unlimited in LaGrange has a detail dept. Call them up and ask for Dave. Tell him Larry sent you and tell him what you want.

Although you and I are from the same general area, I do recommend Gary. The drive to Roselle is worth it.
