Default might try autopia or one of the detailing websites

you'll probably find more info there. I think you'll find more hobby detailers (like myself) on this forum.

What are you looking to have done?

Default Thanks. I like to do it myself but often dont have the time or all the tools.

Looking to get some minor swirl marks and scratches out of a 2002 Black S4. Wish i could get it to look like new again without re-painting it. Dreams will be dreams.

Default You will need to talk to Rick, but general rates for this type of work

Are somewhere in the 60 an hr range for polishing. And then the sanding and 'restoration' services usually start at a base price, then they add on the hourly rate.

So, jobs can go somewhere near the 2k dollar mark, but that is about max depending entirely on the detailer. You have to understand that the best costs money and when you wet dream about your clean car, cleaner and better than maybe any car in the world of that particular model. It is something a little special that is worth paying for.

My .02 cents
