Calgary Opti-guard/Opti-coat Detailer

Hey all,

Anybody know of a good Calgary detailer that does opti-coat? I can't find any that advertise the service on the web. I don't quite feel ballsy enough to attempt it myself either. I know auto-obsessed in Edmonton does it, but I'm not doing HWY 2 in the winter in the BRZ.

Thanks for any answers!

Well, she's nice and opti-coated now. I had Carlos work his magic, and others in this thread suggested, and here are the results:

God, I love WRB.

He charges $250.00 for a full interior + exterior detailing job + $100.00 for Opti-coat. I decided not to have the interior done, so he only charged $150.00 for the exterior detailing. My total bill was $250.00 since I went for the opti-coat (obviously, it's why I started this thread).

Turned out amazing. For the lazy:

Thanks, It was between that and asphalt. The winter steelies I expected to be black from tiretrends.com but silver works. Got the winters on an hour before snowfall. Great so far in the snow. Notice the negative comments about them haha. Some people think it is a stripped down version and those are the stock wheels. :P
