Looking for a shop that will do opti-coat in Seattle area

Hey guys I'm looking for a place in Seattle that does opti-coat applications here in the Seattle area.

From what I've heard the only place around that is licensed to do it is in Portland.

I don't mind driving down to Portland for it, but if I can get it done up here it would clearly be more convenient.

Also how much should I expect to pay? I've taken good care of the car and only has about 5k miles on it. No scratches or anything.

Metropolitan detail over in Bellevue offers opti-coat. They're a good shop, albeit on the more expensive end. I wasn't 100% satisfied on a detail they did for me on my previous car (missed some wash spots around the mirrors) but good service. Probably would have gone over it again if I noticed when I picked up the car. Got our SUV tinted there, and they washed/waxed it for free.

I had mine opti-coated at Metropolitan detail as well, it was a little more expensive but then again, they're licensed by the manufacturer. I think it's still well worth the money though!

@Silver86
Are you going in for just opti-coat or are you going get the exterior detail as well?

Let us know how the service goes!

BTW, I asked via their chat. Though they call it "opti-coat", they're really using opti-guard.

I'm going to clay bar it and wax it here tomorrow and then around the end of next month I'll have them do the detail and coat.
