Detailer Question

K.Wrex · 03-23-2008, 09:55 PM

So I'm tryin to source out a good detailer and I think I found a fairly reasonably priced one. I asked him if they clay the cars first before polishing them and his answer was "it's not necessary becuase a polish will take out any remaining imperfections". This seems to go agiainst what most people on this forum. Should I find another detailer?

ask them about paint correction and if you get the same answer or if they don't know what it is, run away.
