Who to use for wheel polish/restore?

Who do you recommend to send my wheels to for a polish and restore? I have heard Al Reed's name on several threads but I don't have any contact info.

Thanks in advance!

See also Harvey Weidman, who has a glowing rep here and is a helluva nice guy.

Al Reed seems good for polishing, but if you are painting centers you might want to look elsewhere. Reed apparently paints the lug nut recesses, which seems to be frowned upon.
