Four years (!). Yep, time for some wax.

If you have the time, doing the claying/polishing/waxing yourself can provide some quality bonding time with your car.

I hate some of these shops, since most use buffers! I know it's all in the way they use them, but I cringe when I see those things! I will ask arund and let you know. How far will you drive?

Not sure how good they are, but across the street from Ft. Laud Ferrari is a carwash. I have seen a few exotics there. again not sure if Ferrari uses them or just locals, but its worth checking into.

Manny,
I have a friend who has Griot's products and does detailing and has done great work on my car. I had him clay and thoroughly clean, then lightly polish and then wax my car and it looked awesome. Very time consuming. He lives in Port Charlotte. Like a spa weekend for your "baby". Shinyhead Car Detailing, Jim Stewart 941-662-6539. He did Chip Valente's car as well as a few other area Porsches.

Why don't you ask Scott Findlay. He's practically in your neighborhood and I'm sure he could recommend someone.
