Default Good Detailer in Tomball?

I'm looking to get my car detailed and I'm not really sure who does good work. I usually do it myself but there are some pretty bad swirls and contaminants that haven't come out through claybar/wash/wax . Have never taking my car anywhere like this so I need some advice.

Hey, Joe, any good but cheap ones around here? I just want a basic wash and wax. I could try to do it myself, though, I guess. lol.

80$ too rich for you? lol ive had no problems paying 130+$ to have a vehicle properly detailed. you get what you pay for and if you want cheap i say just drive it thru that exxon car wash. for 3.50$ however for now i just detail my own ride when i do have the time.

No. I wash my car by hand every week. I know how to do that well. It's just due for a wax. I just want a wash and good wax. I don't want to spend $50 on that. I might give in, but I'm just not there, yet.

How handy are you?

Here's why I ask. I've got a pair of garage door openers I need to finish installing. I've got one mounted and the other will be by the end of the day today, but I could use a hand with wiring up the sensors and buttons by the door. The builder ran bell wire for it, but nothing is labeled, and I just don't have the patience to deal with it. If you help me finish the installs on the garage door openers, I'll wash, clay, and wax your car, and we'll call it even.

They keep coming, savage brown skin poors,
across the custom checkpoints in San Diego Between Rack of
cars on our freeways, they hang their laundry out the
window, they do jobs white people are too cool to do
themselves. I don't care if it starts a race war, I don't
care if it brings every picked out of the class and gets
every brown skin savage beaten out on the street

Who cares as long as I, Pete Wilson, am governor and president?
I Pete Wilson gave you proposition 187
In this country you speak english or you get out
I, Pete Wilson, will be president
