Hi everyone!
I'm visiting my sister in Vegas while my mom is in the hospital here (doing much better, hoping she will be coming home in the next day or two).
When I came out here, I brought my flex, M105/205, some pads, and microfibers. My sister mentioned that someone had bumped into her car in a parking lot and there was some scratches, paint transfer, etc... Got most of it cleaned up and good to go. I actually wound up going over the whole car with 205 to remove some light swirls, and then topped it with Pete's 53 (yes, I actually flew out here with a bag of detailing goodies, lol).

The car looked like it was in really good shape until I washed it with Dawn to strip all the wax off and see what I was working with... Really wish I would have taken pictures, swirl freaking city!!! What's even more disturbing is she just had the car "professionally" detailed a month ago and was charged over $450 for what I considered a very basic detail, she even paid extra for a claybar "treatment". I clayed the car before polishing, there is no way these guys got clay anywhere close to this thing with the amount of stuff I pulled off. Nevermind the crap left all over the car from these hackjobs using a rotary buffer, I can't tell if it's compound, dried wax, or paint, but this stuff has been left in every little crack and crevice on her car, and it's darn near impossible to remove. I tried with some quick detail spray and microfiber, but it wasn't budging.

Long story short... Any recommendations for a detailer in Vegas she can take her car to for maintenance wash / wax, someone who is trustworthy, and will do a good job? She's a big believer in taking care of her car and likes to get it detailed once a year.

Sorry for the long post, any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
If you are still there, I would suggest searching out a few nice clean higher end cars and ask the owners for recommendations as well!

I am still here, however my time is spent either with my family, my mom in the hospital, or sleeping lol. Lance Burton does live about a mile from my sisters house, think he would mind if I went and asked him? LOL.
Actually the only fun thing I have planned while I'm out here is to go see Gabriel Iglesias on Saturday night @ the Mirage.

Thanks for the tip, if I run into anyone like that I'll definitely ask.
 
Glad to hear your Mom is doing better! Prayers for her speedy recovery and return home!
 
Happy to hear your mom is doing better John. Sick family members are never a good thing. I hope everything goes as planned.

I sent you a quick pm while I was at work earlier and gave you some information. Feel free to give me a shout whenever you get a chance. I would surely love to give help your sister out with her vehicle. I will be in the garage working away on a vehicle whose owner won a free detail during my last giveaway, just in case you wanna stop by the see if I know what I am doing. :buffing:. :xyxthumbs:

I have my portfolio and other information available online @ http://www.facebook.com/thelastdetailnv
