Opti-coat in Puget Sound area?

I've PM'd a few opti-coating detailers and asked around/googled a lot, but I can't seem to find anyone who does it in the Puget Sound area. It's really rough on paint living here, the freeways have an awful lot of grit and gravel on them with all the rain.

Does anyone know of a shop around the puget sound region that does Opti-coat? I'd do it myself but I'm scared to death I'd screw it up.

I put a copy of your post on "Detail Buddies" which is a large group of detailers from all over. Hopefully someone will be able to take care of your car needs .

Might be a bit far from your area but Metropolitan Detail in Bellevue is the only one I know of. I will be getting mine opti-coated on Tuesday.

I realize I'm late to the party here, and this may not even help (not sure where Puget Sound is)

Going off topic, that Bentley they covered in chrome vinyl looked like one hell of an exhausting project. Those guys look good.
