Default Paint Help

Does anyone know of any top-notch painters in the Houston or southeast Texas area? I have a 93' cobra that needs to be wet sanded and/or polished, so I'm looking for a professional shop with good references to have it done at. This car means a lot to me and if anyone could help I would really appreciate it.

Why do you think it needs to be wet sanded? Is this a new paint job? I would do it for you. But you would have to drive to Kansas City. LOL

The car itself has just over 4,700 miles on it and has never even been driven in the rain. It's showroom new other than the fact that original paint has some calcium deposits in the paint from the original owner rinsing off the car and then letting it air dry. I myself have owned the car for a little over three years. It might not even need something aggressive as wet sanding but I thought that I could go ahead and try to remove some of the factory orange peel while I was at it. If I knew how I would at least try to buff it but because it is an original un-touched car I'm afraid that I might create an even worse problem.
