talented detailer in houston area?
I'd like to find a detailer in the houston area that I can actually communicate with and get my truck taken care of according to my wishes rather than the detailers wishes. Any suggestions on how to locate one?

Ken, Detailing is very Zen-like. Learn to do it yourself and enjoy the experience. I am new to this level of automobile care and caressing myself and after just a couple of months "practice" (and the right products) was able to get a "AWESOME SHINE" out of Ken Wilson, who is the club's totally anal detailer.
From a fellow HALO member, Gonzo

I've got some zaino and I've heard a number of halo folks talking about wax over zaino. I am hard pressed to find the time, though.
I had zaino on my last truck and the look was amazing after doing all the steps required... I tried a claybar and cherry wet wax on the new truck and it just isn't as good... I'm thinking of trying p21s (right name?) over zaino, but I don't want to have to do it over and over again. To be honest, just the zaino on the old truck lasted easily 6 months and I couldn't tell a diference from the first day I did it...
Halo needs to have a "detail day"... get together a bunch of guys and line up the claybars, wax, rubber cleaners, engine cleaners, good washes, etc. etc., and get a bunch of trucks done to a super shine...

 Doesn't apply when you are giving a heads up to a fellow detailer. Besides, my moderator superpowers give me immunity from rule #1.
Cujo31-Anthony is in San Antonio. Houston is a pretty long drive from there.
