Default Need recommendation for detailer

Recently bought a 1990 Buick Reatta convertible. Paint is original and in very good condition (no scratches) but the car has a few areas with light to medium swirls that need attention. While I've been a Zaino user for years (and use Zaino on my other cars), Zaino doesn't seem to be able to minimize some of these swirls.

Can anyone recommend a 'traveling detailer' who would come to West L.A. and give a full exterior treatment on the car. I don't want cheap - I want someone who, when they are done with the car, I can say I see a remarkable improvement in the finish/paint of the car. TIA.

If you are willing to come down to Newport, Steve's Detailing off of Birch and Dove does a great job.

If you are inclined to do it yourself, its not too difficult. Just get a good dual action polisher (DA) or rotory, some cutting compounds and have at it. The initial cost is a little high, but its well worth it in the long run if you are AR about your car. Good luck.
