Anyone know of a good auto detailer in LA? I'm very picky as I don't want any swirl marks on my car when it's done. Else I can just take it to some cheap place to wash.
I just don't have the time to deal with it right now and need my car detailed right away.
BTW, my car is black so it's very prone to swirl marks. I've been meticulous by using MF towels and wax. I need to make sure when it's done, there aren't a bunch of swirls.
If anyone knows, please let me know of any recommended places. Thanks! | |

Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Montebello, CA Posts: 269 | i'm sorry but there are alot of us small detailers that don't have big companies or our own websites to sell products that are just as good. Some of us don't have the time constraints like these people so we can spend the same amount of time on customers cars as we do on our own. For example i don't get many customers so when i do get them i spend on average 8-10hrs per car, and make it look as close to brand new as possible. | |

My own suggestions for certain detailers aren't meant to slight others. I know there are many fine craftsmen out there and I'm glad to see any of them make clients happy and cars shine. I'm just working from my personal database.
I'm quick to recommend Joe, Chris, Richard or George because I know them personally, I've worked elbow to elbow with these guys and I've seen their skills and dedication first hand. While I've never met Patrick face-to-face, I have dealt with him as a vendor (and he's among the best anywhere).

If you do great jobs on customer cars, what reason would they have to go to another detailer?
