Looking for Stainless trim restoration shop - SE WI

Looking for recommendations for a shop that does stainless trim restoration (dent removal, sanding, polishing) I'm in the Milwaukee WI area and would prefer to drive to the shop rather than ship the parts. There was a shop about 2 1/2 hours away but they're no longer doing that work.
There is a shop in Madison WI (Madison Custom Polishing and Plating Service https://madison-custom-polishing-and...site/?utm_sour ) - I will contact them. Any feedback on this one?
Thanks, Karl

The Oldsmobile Club of Wisconsin would probably be helpful for a referral. You can get their contact info from the OCA website.

There is a gent near Burlington that can handle the dent's and a buffer on the northside near Woodman's on 41/45.

Do it yourself. I had a old grinder I bought at a garage sale, took off grinder wheels and added buffer wheels. Can get them and "rouge" at auto swap meets. Ding back dents then work stainless and eventually polish w/ rouge. Not difficult and a easy slow relaxing thing to do on a rainy day....

Oh, unless you have that funky 80's stuff that is coated aluminum- can't do that yourself....
