Detailer Needed -- Columbia, SC

Hello everyone, first time poster, I was directed here from rx7club.com. I have a 1986 royal maroon metallic (red) Mazda RX-7 Sport. It may not look like much to the average person but it's my pride and joy. It's looking a little dull and I'm not quite ready to splurge for new paint yet. I was hopeing a professional detailer could breathe some new life in her as I am not qualified to do anything beyond a decent wash and wax. So is there anyone, preferably with PC experience, in the area that would be up to the task? Or are there any good shops around here? TIA

I'll be up there the weekend near the 11th of August and bringing my PC, I'm not going to make the car look like it just rolled out of the dealership, but I have experience and I'm pretty good with the PC and decent swirl removing, waxing, polishing etc, bring over a case of beer and we can clean it up while I'm up there...If you want to learn I'd be more than happy to teach you the basics its really not hard the more cars you do the better you get just takes practice. My parents live in Columbia near Garners ferry area you familiar?
