Jax - I Need a Detailer....

Looking to get my car's exterior COMPLETELY detailed in Jax, Fl. Need someone that does clay, rotory polisher, etc. Looking for a good detailer like Joyriide1113 form Miami... His work is posted in his threads, as everyone is drooling over. Someone is trying to get a meet in Orlando for Joyriide1113 for a long weekend, but I don't want to wait weeks...

Does anyone know someone in the area?

Thanks !!



Nathan

I actually tried to call them last week to come out and wash my car. They required a $50 min to come out. Normally I'd wash it myself but I'm on light activity after surgery.

How much for a full detail, Lyndon? I had my car Zaino'd before, but the guy is sadly now gone...And I, like nathanjax, need some attention...

I would not recommend Detail Clinic. My Jeep was full of swirl marks and they couldn't remove surface scratches in my clear coat (which I removed later).

I have been looking for awhile, but have found no one in the area. I'm willing to pay $150-200 for a good detail.

Cass, Danny, or anyone else, what do you think about the guys on 17 near 295 and the Holiday Inn by the Gas Station/Liquor Store combo at that shortcut/cross to wells. I've heard good things about them, but not sure of what all detailing services they provide.

geez you guys, 150-200, you could buy a porter cable and do it yourself after just one detail.

thats what i did, its hard work in florida's heat...but if you hit it every weekend, its a breeze, its just very hard work if you only do it every other month or something, the upkeep is pretty easy. I'll admit im not a pro though. I'm sure you get what you pay for.
