Auto Detailers in DC

Does anyone know of a good detailer in the DC area? And before you flame me, no I can't wash and wax the car myself because my apartment building doesn't allow it (and I have no other place to do it).

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Didn't I say not to flame me?

I'm not lazy, just constrained by my circumstances. It's hard to wash and wax a car when you have no water supply.

Okay here is a place Classic Auto Salon located in Rockvile MD.
The address is 11921 Maple Ave Rockvile MD. 1- 301-770-1870
Its located near White Flint Mall area & the Metro subway station.
I have used them before for my other car & took my TL there when I first got it for them to wash. It was the winter when I got my car & I had a cold so I did not want to be in water. My nieghbor takes his Lincoln to them also to have it waxed. I just told a lady with a Benz about them yesterday.There is also another place that you can hand wash your car yourself inside located in the auto park off Rt 29 & Briggs Channey Rd. in Silver Spring. You can use there soap or bring your own I wash & wax my car myself at home during spring & summer but have to turn water off in winter.

I can personally swear and vouch for this cat.

His company is called Shine Perfect and the guys name is Santee. He has been hooking me up with the detailing for the last 7 years and past 4 cars.

He has been operating from our apartment building in the garage and he recently opened up a little shop in Crystal City on the weekends. Makes and blends his own wax, uses only cotton towels, details Rolls Royces, Benzes, Bimmers and even my ex-shity cars like my Mustang, Pathfinder, and XR4TI.

Contact him at 202-515-6971 - Santee of Shine Perfect.

By the way, he charged me $70 for my CL to include treating my Leather, not bad for a full interior and exterior job done by hand.

Rustito, what part of Bethesda are you from? I'm in Betheda too, I haven't seen many Aegean Blue CL-S' except mine and Jrock's. Time to put on some more coats of Zaino for the winter.
