No detailers in Tampa, FL so please help

Hello all,

I'm looking for a really good, if not the best, detailer in the Tampa Bay area. I have a Jet Black BMW M3 that I swirled the hell out of and not matter what I try I can't seem to get them out. She also has several fine scratches that I want removed... Please help I need the best... I want my car to look like it just came off the showroom floor again or better.

Mind you she's only 4 months old and I've only had her for 1 1/2 months.

Thanks

I find it hard to believe there are no detailers in the Tampa Bay area that use this site... Well I bought Poor Boy's ssr1,2, and 2.5 for the swirl marks all over my 05 Jet Black M3. I'll take some before and after photos to share. That is providing she comes out nice.

Any help would be appricated...

These are all the products I have at my desposal:
A PC
ProperAutoCare Pads; Red, Black, White, and Yellow
Poor Boy's; SSR1, 2, and 2.5
Klasse; AIO and SG
Menzerna; Auto Shampoo, Final Polish II, Finishing Touch Glaze, and FMJ
3M; Finesse It II and Imerpial Hand Glaze
Griot's Pads; 3 Red, and 3 Orange
Mother's Clay Bar System

I believe that's it beside the numerous MF towels and applicators. What the best plan of attack? What's worth keeping? What should I just trash?

You might have better luck posting in the Autopia University forum. I don't think the regional forums get a whole lot of traffic which is probably why you didn't get a response.

It was in the professionals forum but it was moved 2 minutes ago by the mods to here... So my guess is they would probably move it back

You were looking for a detailer in a specifc region, so it was moved to the forum designated for that area. Perhaps someone from that region would've seen the thread there. If you wish to discuss detailing techniques using your own products, you may start a thread about that in AU.

I hate to use this but, did you try the search feature. I just did a search for Tampa and Detailer and came up with this thread which might be of use to you.
