Best place to get your car detailed?

Just like the title says... my car hasn't been washed in a very LONG time and is looking pretty nasty, and is in need of a thorough detailing. Any suggestions?

becareful if you hit up midas touch, do a search.
some had great experiences and others had pretty bad ones.


how about doing the detail yourself? it may take a while but it feels good when its all done.
get a claybar, and some hardcore wax. zymol or rejex. i seen a car after being rejexed and it was so hot.

just make a little effort and do it yourself.....then you'll know exactly who to blame when there's still wax left, dirt under the side skirts, and water streaks/spots from a chamois that always has water left in it

Well they say acidic based waterspot removers should only be used by experienced professionals I know a couple others who have had some etching too.

I sent choke customers to Midas... Joet and da Crew

I only had one Challenge but she had a black forester and she was very picky during the sale and post sale as well so... I gues that the president and myself cannot make everyone happy.

Thanks for all your hard work to all at Midas!!!!
