Default Need detailer recommendation Polk County

I somehow ended up with some scratches on my car (fingernail catches in them but not sure if it is clear coat or to the primer.) Anyway they are driving me CRAZY and I want to take it to a reputable detailer to see if I can get them buffed out.

Anyone have recommendations for someone good in the Lakeland area?

Thanks! I tried scratch remover compound with a soft cloth and a followup coat of wax and it only helped a little. I may buy some touch up paint and try that route even though they are very fine scratches. Wet sanding....well that's why I need a good professional detailer I'm not trying that at home.

I have never been to Boca Raton I bought my car in Ft. Myers so if we head south it is usually in that direction. I'll let you know if I ever head that way, thanks for the offer!
