Attention 2 Detail NW, located in Vancouver, WA is who I've been going to for the past 5-years or so. Paul has been a trusted resource in all things paint correction, and maintenance. Over that same period of time he's corrected 4 personal vehicles; in each instance I've been blown away by the results.

I'd say make the trip up to the shop to connect with Paul personally, hell--it's always fun to see what new project vehicles are in there; he's the trusted source for the Tonkin collection even.

I have heard great things about Attention 2 Detail as well.

Another place that I have also heard very good things about and is very reasonably priced is Gallagher auto spa. I will hopefully be taking my car there once the weather gets better.

Any other suggestions? Prices for full detail?

Another vote here for Attention to Detail.

Paul is a hardworking, no-nonsense guy who treats our cars like babies. You will not be disappointed.

+1 for Paul.

He is the best in the area by far.

This reminds me... I need to take my Supra to him again.

How did it go? Any good/bad experience to comment?

I followed up on the two names mentioned here for a full soup to nuts detailing and got prices over $1,000 for full on paint correction, interior, etc. I noticed a posting from a forum member Munichm3 who indicated that he's a professional detailer here in Portland with years of experience doing P-cars, Lambos etc. so I contacted him. The rates were literally HALF of what others were asking and the work was EXCELLENT. I pride myself on finding the best parts, services, etc. and not paying full retail. Adrian's work speaks for itself and the car looks better than when I bought it. Feel free to IM me for more details but if you love paying double for things, keep on keeping on, but if you want to save $$$ while getting top service you might want to check him out.
