Looking for Detailer in Plano or Frisco Area?

Anyone have any recommendations? Not looking for Concours pricing, but would like something better than average BMW detail/etc. I have my arm in a sling and can't do myself...

thanks!

I wound up getting the premier service... cost $340. Included wash, clay bar, polish, sealant, interior, wheels, etc.

In short, I was disappointed.

-The owner came with 4 workers about 30 minutes late.
-The interior leather conditioner, left a shiny film several weeks,
-The interior detailer carelessly got the conditioner on my alcantara windshield pillars.
- Owner complained about not being able to get the light swirls out, asked if it was some special paint, said other M5 he did was easy/etc. (mine is black saphire). told him this was the main reason I wanted him, didn't really care about interior detail, etc. Gave him another $100, and he produced ver little for it. Actually thought he wouldn't charge me the $100 since he left sooner than the 3 hours the detailing process supposedly took. Nope he took it.
- had to ask for them to remove the wax residue from the proximity sensors. One of the workers asked the guy about this, like I was asking too much.
- after they left, he left a polish on the windshield (front and back) which I had to remove, had a couple of polisher marks which I was able to thankfully remove (i.e. side of polisher was rubbing on surface while he was focusing on bumper)
- He also does garage interiors. He never came back to me with a quote as asked (he actually measured).

So for $440 and 2.5 hours vs. the supposed $340 and 3+ hours I would say I would look elsewhere in the future.


As for the quality of the "dealer only" Gloss-it product - after one wash I put a coat of Klasse on it and the shine seemed deeper. Following some rain, the Klasse areas I did definitely had the rain bead more.

i detail cars on the side, not a business as much, but more so play money.

i have clients such as jerry stackhouse, and jason kidd from the mavs, detailed everything from honda accords to maybachs.

i can do everything, literally, but at almost half the cost of others. you paid $350 for 3 hours, you would have gotten a complete days worth of work and complete restoration from me for that price. only reason i can undercut is because this doesnt put food on my plate, it pays for the michelin PS2 i roast 4x a year lol

hope to hear from you!
