I don`t know of anyone from Autopia in particular, but there is a place on the I-10 Service Road, right off Causeway South. Can`t remember the name of the business (Fleet Clean, maybe?), but there is always a Dodge Viper and some other high end car out front. They do a pretty good job.

Yea, there are some places on the northshore. There is a place called Detail Magic. There is another place but I forgot the name. I`m also starting to detail cars. I`m starting to do the Corvettes in the Corvette club.

Thanks. I got off my butt and did it myself, but with a new baby on the way, that may be the last time for a while I can diy my vehicles.

Can you post some pictures of your work, and your usual process/method of choice? What machine(s) do you use? Products? I am very interested in getting some cars detailed, from regular maintenance to full details with a good bit of correction needed. I just dont have the time to any of them right now, and they all need it. I have four, maybe five cars all together that need it, maybe even more than that.

Also, I have all the machines, pads, towels, and products you could imagine at my house, and if you *do* end up coming down to do the work, you are more than welcome to use/try any of it.

I live in the Luling area across the river from Kenner, not a pro but experienced enthusiast though.

Clean Fleet Auto Body is who they were referring to earlier.

BTW, I`m in Port Allen and Lobdell on weekends. PM me if you are possibly interested.

Im not a professional, just an enthusiast. I live in Mandeville.

I looked at it, but it is actually pretty generic. Around here we go into way more detail about what our process is, and what products we use. You mention "machine polish" a lot, what type of machine? What type of pads/bonnets do you use on this machine? What brand products are you using?

Do you service the New Orleans area?

2 vehicles for sure, maybe more. A black Mercedes E500 that will need clay, polish, and seal nothing crazy, and a black F150 4-door that will need a pretty decent amount of work from interior shampoo, leather clean/condition to clay, multi stage polishing/paint spot correction, and seal on the outside.

FWIW-I think Clean Fleet was also a body shop that did detailing, been around for many years...

i use for swirl removal a PC 7424 w/ LC Pads and MF Bonnets. As far as polishes go, i use XMT #3, #1, and for some parts meg`s scratch-x. I also have a rotary but only use that for heavy paint correction (deep scratches). My LSP is usually 2 coats of meg`s NXT Tech Wax.

\r\n\r\nI live on the westbank in the harvey area, I have a mobile bussiness, have several years experience, not a problem to do your vehicles. I did a 05 chrysler paficia today, used mernerza p106ff polish with a pc orange pad for paint correction, topped with a sealant. Took over 5 hrs to complete with interior detailed and engine bay detailed, also claybar exterior and glass. I can email some pics if you like just pm with your email. Thanks Jeffrey Juneau:woot2:`
