Anyone in the area know of any detailer who's handy with paint correction?

I have a 335i in Alpine White and is in dire need of a paint correction. Swirl gallore!

Let me know!

I do my own detailing, but from what I've read, Lustr in Schaumburg is pretty well reviewed (high end pricing though).

There are guys with a lot higher end stuff then I use, this is plenty enough to piss off my wife.

Griot's Clay in 8 oz jars and interior spray detailer
Viking Waffle Weave Towels
2 Buckets with Grit Guards

Chem Guys:
HexLogic Pads
Microfiber Towels
Wheel & Rim Cleaner
V07 - Spray Sealant/Detailer
Synthetic Quick Detailer

Leather Care Cleaner and Conditioner

Meguiars:
Car Wash Soap
M20 Sealant (Base)
Yellow Wax 26 (Layered over sealant)

Hey GATORB8, did you buy a separate backing plate for the HF? If so, from where?

I've just used the one that came on it.

I do have a 3.5" chem guys plate and pads for more detailed work, but I haven't used it yet. I must have lost the arbor wrench, so I've got to get a replacement or fab one up so I can switch them out.

If starting out id suggest get the porter cable instead of the HF one. I have both and the PC is much better IMO and still inexpensive. Get a 6" backing plate, orange pad, and menzerna SIP and you will remove 90% of the swirls.
