    I think that most detail shops do it. I have had Auto-Glo do it on one car, and it came out perfect, and lasted a long time. I need to have another car done soon, so I'll probably head down there again to do it as well.

    I'm pretty sure that Nexus in Duluth does it as well.

    even easier than that..... get a good polish and you dont even need to sand. Put some plastX in an orbital and it will come out clear.

    Plasti-X is the better liquid to use. Only kit I use and recommend is the 3M sanding disc kit. Works every time.
