Looking for a good solid place that can do a paint correction/detail. Polish and buff, because there's some nasty spider-webbing on my car from the previous owner, which i'd really like to get rid of. Roanoke area. Addresses/websites/estimates, all would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

That's my point, i don't have a PC, and don't exactly feel like buying one. But then again, if they're going to charge me 200 to remove the swirls, then i might as well get one.

I think it would be beneficial to get your own if you plan on maintaining the paint yourself in the future. If you take your time, and make sure you research every move you make in advance, you should be fine. It'll pay for itself, and maybe you can make a few bucks in the future helping others.
