Seriously, invest in a porter cable, some good swirl remover, polish and wax and you're good to go. Just be gentle, take your time and you'll be pleased with your results, not to mention the pride in doing it yourself.

HOWEVER, there are a number of decent mobile detailers out there if you'd rather have someone else do it. I've had mixed results with a few, but I can suggest Sam and his group at Premier Mobile Aesthetics (he also does the Venture Shield clear bra) if you're looking for show prep, etc.:

Good luck!

Default AJ Auto Detail (San Jose)

I highly recommed this place (http://www.ajautodetailing.com/). I take my LS430 there every two weeks for a treat. Their regular car washes are like detail quality to others. You will notice that a lot of high end cars/owners go there. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. It's all hand done!

can you provide a bit more detail and what you paid for?

thanks,

I used to take my car to AJ Auto Detaling as well when I used to live in San Jose. I was always pleased with the results. They offer a variety of services at different prices: http://www.ajautodetailing.com/prices.html.

Sam, does Bob at Autoconcierge do dent removal as well?
