Hey guys,
Can anyone recommend a detailer, preferably in the east bay. My wife is selling her car; it just needs a basic clean up.
Thanks.

The Bay Area is a huge place. Where in the Bay Area are you? If you're just looking for a basic wash and interior cleaning, almost any car wash and detail place can do a decent job. Wet sand, buffing, etc... to get rid of all the tiny scuffs on the paint are a completely different story.
I'm in the east bay, Hercules...haven't been impressed with car washes over the years. Looking for light upholstery cleaning, carpet shampoo, clay bar and wax, etc.

PM Zaino Detailer. He does excellent work! He's detailed several cars on here and many members can vouch for him.

Most detail places will clay bar, but usually only body shops will wet sand as it's a process to get rid of orange peel from freshly sprayed paint. I know of a few places that can do either, but they are almost all in the South Bay.Originally Posted by Flyin_V
