Need some help in the Chicago Area

Here is my story...2007 Mazda 3 Hatch, in black. Dealer prepped the car in a horrible way. I have a PC, pads, etc, but cannot remove some of the marring. I am looking to see if a professional or the like would help a fellow autopian and offer to give me a good deal on just polishing out the car.

I am located near Joliet, have a garage, and would sincerely appreciate this. Car looks bad to me, and I just want my new car to look new!

Deepest thanks!

Let me first start by saying I am NOT a professional. What products are you using? By the way I'm in Plainfield.

Using a PC, 4inch yellow CCS pad, and compound moose....not producing the results I expected. Paint seems SO hard.

Re: Need some help in the Chicago Area

I am located in Geneva, and I am not a professional, but I am sure I can help. I would be available Sunday afternoon, or Monday. Got two cars to do on Saturday, and One Sunday Morning. Do you have any pictures you could post! Here is a link to a car i did not too long ago.

Re: Need some help in the Chicago Area

I'm gonna be out of town this weekend....when else would you have time? I think the products you used on the Audi would be great on mine as well.

Re: Need some help in the Chicago Area

LMK, if you still need help. I was just told about this forum from my newest customer today he is in lombard which is where I live and he's a miles north of me and said he was recommended to me through here.

I'm still searching for it but have not found it I'm normally on vwvortex forum.
