Excellent work as usual Phil! I have a question: do you have any recommendations for detailers in the Midwest? I've tried a handful(literally 6 different detailers) and none have come close to yours or OctaneGuy's work. Know of anyone's work you'd recommend?(I'm located in Milwaukee, WI but willing to drive twice a year to get a proper detail)
