Need skilled detailer in West Los Angeles

So, I was waiting my turn to have Randy install my new pulley on Saturday and I noticed my boot was speckled with little brownish-red dots. It is as if it got lightly sprayed with something. Today I tried clay bar, cleaner wax, even a tiny bit of polishing compound (as much as I dared - which wasn't much) and now I need a pro. I imagine this stuff can hopefully be polished off, but I need an expert opinion and hopefully some expert skill.

Anyone have any recomendations for some help in SoCal? Particularly someone local to (or who travels to) West LA area?

Thanks,

Steve

supergimp, take your MINI to a c3 detailing party at club headquarters in West Los Angeles. They are usually held monthly.

Club President, Richard (OctaneGuy), has all the skills and products to show YOU how to professionally detail your MINI. You probably need to claybar it, at the least. Check out the forum here in the SoCal regional forum: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...splay.php?f=76 and go the the club website at www.c3club.org :smile:

I have been going to George's Auto Detailing in WLA for over 25 years. He is the best. He not only does detailing but is experienced in minor body work such as color sanding. If he can't fix it no one can. George is located on Pico between Bundy and Barrington on the north side of the street. You can mention my name. His phone number is 310 231 1933.

Thanks, Clo. I do intend to hang with the C3 guys sometime. I have a bit of detail experience, but this it out of my league. I've been through the claybar attempt already and now I'm a bit nervous.

Thanks, Larry. I thought I saw you on Randy's list for Sunday. How did that go?
