I'm 1 1/2 years into my 3 year lease and considering keeping the car so now I want to take care of it a bit more than I honestly was up until now. I've mainly done a two bucket system for washing with a Quik Detailer Spray for touch-ups in between. I have light feather like scratches on some of the piano black from when the dealership washed it for me in their automatic after a car wash and have regular light lines here and there that I know will buff out. Other than that I have a few rock chips I can't do anything about without touch-up I'm sure.
I say all that to say I want to find a detail shop in my area that can wash, polish, wax and really do a good job on the exterior. The problem is I have no idea what I'm looking for or should be asking detail shops about. 75% of the car washes do a 'detail' as well even though it's not a real detail.
#1) Do I just look up online reviews from average car owners at 'detail places' in the area?
#2) What questions should I be asking these places when I call? What products/services do I want to make sure they're doing or using?
#3) What should I expect to pay for said service?
