I need a good semi-local detailer and I found his web site and am thinking of using him. Anybody heard of him or know of his work?

Thanks!

I have spoke w/ Barry a few times on the phone and his level of knowledge was very good.

I have seen more then a few of his writeups on Autopia and he does outstanding work.

Well I dropped my car off with him on Monday. Suppose to pick it up Saturday. I'll post a review of what I think. So far the guy has been great! He texts or calls me with updates and explains what he is doing. Keep in mind I have a jet black 550, that color is a bitch and its a big car. He says today that he is done correcting the paint and moving into the burnishing/polishing stage tonight and tomorrow (its Thursday now, so 4 days after I dropped it off).

He does this part time still, and only works in the evenings on detailing. He's got about 8 hours into mine so far.

I can't wait to pick it up!

Picked up the car today...AWESOME is all I can say! Check out the write up Barry did on autopia http://www.autopia.org/forum/pro-det...ml#post1359877

I am truly impressed by Barry's work and his attitude and personality. He was more than willing to share his process and more importantly to share with me the things I need to do to keep my car looking its best for years to come.

thanks again Barry, excellent job!
