Default Wheel refinishing recommendations on Long Island

Does anyone have a good or bad experience(s) with a wheel refinishers on Long Island? I want to have my rear wheels refinished (minor rash) before mounting new tires. The wheels are standard factory 17" "cups". Thanks!

Again I would recommend Matt at www.detailingdynamics.com in Mineola.

I discussed this very topic with him, one time out at Old Westbury Gardens, at a Porsche Auto Show, and he wasn't too enamored about the work done by 'others' on Long Island in particular.

The guy is pretty much a perfectionist (not a problem as far as I am concerned when it's my or your car!) so I can wholeheartedly recommend him.
