Default Where to get my stang detailed?

Im in the newport news area and i really want to get my stang detailed. Hasnt been washed in about 2 months. I dont prefer to go outside in the friged temps and try to do it myself. i was wondering if anyone here knows a good company. Not looking for a car spa type place, more like someone who comes to you or a pure detailing company?

Has anyone else paid a company to do the clean and wax for them and had bad experiences?

There should be a MWR garage somewhere on one of the bases in the Hampton Roads area, forgive me since I was a west coast Sailor and don't know your area well, so I'd find a hi-pressure spray wash and rinse the car off, grab some towels and pay MWR for a bay for an hour or two and shine it up yourself.

and, I wouldn't trust that 'carwash in a bottle' stuff with a black car. I wouldn't use it on my blue one...

Hope that helps!

I know Cruise-thru Car Wash does detailing up on St Rt 17 in front of the Hampton Roads Harley-Davidson dealership. I haven't had them detail one of my cars but I have seen some high end cars in there getting done.
