Real Detailer in the Orlando area

I was browsing in the web and local ads for a detailer in Orlando area. All I'm finding are people claiming they are "detailers". Someone knows about a respectable detailer in Orlando? How much should I expect to pay for a spectacular job like the ones I've seen here? All I have been geting quoted for is 125-175 for wash, wax, and clay combos. But for that price I know its going to be a cheap job. I'm expecting it to be more expensive. I kept it clean but I know its time for a detail. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Contact Richie Carbone, at Richies Custom Detailing or PM him at "Richie Carbone". He's based out of Orlando. You can also get in touch with "ScheerSpeed" who's a well known forum member. Here's some of his work, ScheerSpeed. I believe he's based out of Miami but does house calls.

+100 for Richie. There are a few others is you really need more than one but I'd go with Richie IMO.

Sscheerspeed seems a bit far for a detail. He'll if you can make it to him or get him to do it that would be awesome

Log-on to autopia (I haven't in a long time, but I *think* it's autopia.org--looks like they've done a new update on the forum), and you'll have plenty recommended detailers.

Simple wash/clay/wax would take 3-5 hours, so multiply by their shop rate (min of $40/h)to get an approximate cost.

Good luck!

Richie Carbone is definitely the man in Orlando if you're looking for your vehicle to be done right. I know Florida has a lot of options, but if you want it done right the first time, trust a true professional to make your car look better than new.

Here's a recent 1 of 1 Aston Martin he did:

Wow that Aston Martin ended up looking sweeet! I'll see what I can do and will eventually post pics. Thanks for all the replies!
