Default Detailing recommendations?

I know this has been asked before and yes i did search, just wanted to see what is available now. Does anyone on here either do or know someone who does detail work? Looking to get back the showroom shine on the TL. Not really concerned about the interior. I want to get rid of some of the minor surface scratches on the car. Mobile detailing is a plus but not necessary. Who do you guys use?

I am a detailer and have been detailing cars for a while. This is correct and I couldn't agree more ^^ Granted it is a LOT of work but hard work pays off.

It's hard work, but really worth it.

Thanks for the responses. I may end up doing it myself. With working full time, going to school and living in an apartment, time and space is limited. Im going to call a few places on monday
