Please do. I live in Sarasota and can't find anyone in my area but I wouldn't mind making the trek up to Clearwater. Good luck and definitely post a report/pictures when you can.

Ok, I got the full works. He did the full interior, nice job, pressure washed the wheels inside and out and cleaned the wheels. Clay bared the whole car and buff waxed it. Cleaned all the windows and detailed under the hood. Cleaned all the leather. Out of a 1 to 10 rating I would give this job a 9. It cost me $185. The only thing that pissed me off was when I left for home, 10 min after he finished, I hit a cloud of friggin love bugs on Veterans Highway. Had to stop in Crystal River and clean them off. I will post some pics in the am and drop his name and phone number. He has a total portable unit and will come to you. He carries 250 gal water, pressure washer, generator and all the stuff he needs for the job.

Ok, the guy who did my car is Kyle Grimm. His company is "Wax Factor". Phone number is 727-420-5793. His card says he does cars, boats, trucks, motorcycles, and RV's. His services are hand wash and wax, full int/ext detail, overspray removal, light scratch repair, compound and glaze, steam cleaning, wet sanding, engine detail and lease turn in. He will come to you although I'm not sure how big his area is.
