I have 2 nicked areas on the passenger door that need some paint repair. Anyone have a good recommendation in the DMV area?

I used Towson BMW's COLLOSION center on Joppa RD in Towson Parkville area.
They're Porsche, Maserati, Mini and like BMW certified?
Had my damage rear bumper repaired and painted (as a spare) and a new bumper painted. All the painting was done w/o the car, Mineral White.
The Pearl particles perfectly match up with existing paint, color matches 98% so close that my front bumper which wasn't redone matches 98% also.
No flaws in paint, no drips or clear coat spots. Seemed like very high quality work.

Wasn't there a very good shop in Arlington not to far from the airport, was it Wagonwerks? Think they lost their reputation but a few guys left there to open another good shop in Rockville?
I had my Mercedes worked on there twice when it was the original and they were definately high-quality.

Vouching for the BMW place on Joppa too, got an appointment to fix a scratch in 2 weeks.

Thanks guys. I'm looking for somewhere within Montgomery County but will consider the ones mentioned so far.

Hey Rahim, I did end up visiting Blanco but they did not offer what I was looking for.

Seems like most places I've reviewed only do full panel paint work. That is overkill for what I need...which is to cover up a few quarter sized nicks.

I was under the impression that there are advanced detailers who can buff out these things with a combination of touch-up paint and compounding?
