Default Good detailers in So Cal OC area?

My car is starting to develop swirls due to my washing and I am looking for a detailer to restore the paint to good conditions. Any recommandations for good detailers in OC area?

I might have someone for you. Lemme find out his exact location and I'll shoot you his info.

But have you given any thought to doing it yourself? For around the same amount of money you can have all the products to do the job and for numerous times after that as well. Its really pretty easy to do too imo. Anyway, yea, I'll shoot you a pm once I get that guys info.

Thanks I appreciated.
I try to do the washing and detailing myself bought a foam gun, sheep skin mitten and tried to do it the right way but I can see the swirls increasing every time I wash it. So I guess it's invitable and time to get a pro to get it done right.

I am interested in recommendations of a deatailer in the SoCal area. I got a quote from a highly respected detailer but I thought it was a little high to say the least for $449.

Eric from www.EnviousAutoDetailing.com is top notch and I would highly recommend his work. You can see some of his work here if interested - Eric's recent detailing articles. It's not a cheap service but you'll definitely get exactly what you paid for.

Hey buddy, what ever happened to the referral that I gave you for the discounted price? I ended up using someone else in Nor Cal, that came even more highly recommended. I have tried several So. Cal. and Nor. Cal. detailers with mixed results.
