Surely there is a capable detailer in your area who specializes in paint correction work... let me know if you would like me to recommend someone to you in your area.

I'm going to try my hand at it first since I have the tools and supplies. If I can't do it I'll certainly take you up on that offer. I should really post a picture of my swirl marks so you get an idea of how bad it is. It's just swirl marks, no random scratches like that rear bumper.

Yes, please share some pics!

You can definitely do this on your own... it just takes some practice and patience. We all started somewhere

I need this in my life The 335is I picked up could use some love. It's a shame you're so far up north. I might have to give it a go on my own.

I'm actually located in central Illinois... Detailed Image is located in NY, but they are simply a retailer of products. They do not offer detailing services.

This can certainly be done on your own with the proper tools, products, and training. Check out the Detailing Guide and Ask-A-Pro Blog for tons of great info!

Let me know if you have any specific questions!

I'm inclined to drive all the way up to Albany. Can I make an appointment?

Nevermind I see you're in the mid-west.

Ha.. yep... I'm actually located in central Illinois... Detailed Image is located in NY, but they are simply a retailer of products. They do not offer detailing services.

I may know someone in your specific area that I could refer you to... where are you located?

Thanks,
