Detailer in St. Louis

I've been scouring the net trying to find a good detailer in the St. Louis, MO area and haven't been able to find anything other than a horror story about a mobile detailing company that made the news.

Does anyone know of a good, quality detailer in St. Louis? I plan to take my BRZ directly from the dealer to there in order to have it Opti-Coated and clear bra'd/PPF'd.

Also, what is the prefered application method? PPF then Opti-Coat, or Opti-Coat then PPF?

not sure if there is anyone closeby but I'd check the map of authorized installers (search by your zip)

and I recommend my clients to get the paint correction and Opti-Coat first. then look to have PPF installed. not everyone listens but that is my recommendation. get the paint perfect, then put film over it

Give JML Audio in Fenton a call: http://www.jmlaudio.com/
He did my girlfriends FRS, my VW R32 last year and my new Focus ST last month.
It will take about a day, and he will get you a loaner car to.
His prices on a full detail a very reasonable.
Ask for "Josh" tel him The Red FRS and Blue ST from Creve Coeure referred you.
He will take great care of you.

@modena Yeah, Josh and the gang at JML are great. I've had him do a few things for me but I didn't know if he did Opti-Coat.

I asked him for Opti-Coat on mine (Focus ST) and he was not that eager to do so. So I left it at that.
They did a polish and wax, like they did on my R32 and it came out great!
So now I get it done every 6 months, price is not bad and they do the whole car.
