Default High End Detail Shop In Chicago?

I'm looking for a place that isn't a “car wash that will also give you a wax and call it a detail" place.
A profesional auto refinisher, if you will.
I've been trying to do it myself, but it's not good enough.
I'm in the River North neighborhood.

I have heard nothing but good things about these guys.

They also store cars for some of Chicago's biggest names.

Ivan is a master. Sorry that I haven't looked at this part of the forum, or I would have answered earlier. He did my 2001, guards red Turbo. He likes to do a two stage polish. My car literally looked new when he finished. I am now washing the car with a two bucket method, with grit guards in each bucket. This was a technique taught to me by Ivan. He was certainly right, since I have avoided re-scratching the finish of the car.

Here is his website Lustr Auto Detailing

You can feel free to use my name with him. I have stayed in touch with him, even though he did my car several months ago.

Here is the link to the thread that I wrote after he detailed my car. Detailing My Guards Red Turbo
