I just did a complete detail on my car myself, took about 4 hours. This was to wash, clay, rewash, polish, glaze/sealant, and wax. Rain-X'd all my windows, too. It's not too hard and it's actually kinda nice to do on a nice day (not hot..) Used an orbital to apply the polish and glaze, removed it by hand, and wax on/off was karate kid style All by hand..

TBH I don't trust companies to detail my car, they're pretty much on volume and just pound through cars, and I don't think they'd take time to inspect each panel and do that last 5% that matters.

However, I do have a card that a friend gave me that he used, he was very happy with their work. If I can find that card I'll pm the details to you (he was in Langley though, if that makes it a long trek for you.)

@ninja6o4 thanks, I really appreciate your offer but just last week I got my car fully detailed on the exterior by a professional detailer located in Maple Ridge. He did an excellent job and my car was in the shop for 4 days, his attention to details is just crazy. He does online write ups and he goes by the user name 911fanatic (Ken), I highly recommend bring your cars to him!

Here is one of his many write ups, I highly recommend all of you to go check it out

That is amazing quality work! It's good to know that if I need a serious restoration, there is someone local that can definitely do the work.

He has prices and packages on his website, ranging from 1 stage polish detail to a full car detail including the suspensions.

Talk to the guy (Ken) and he will give you the best recommendation on which package to get. He's a very honest guy.
