Please read this before signing up
2 Important points we would like to communicate
1) The primary purpose of Meguiar's garage is to have fun hanging out with your fellow forum friends and car enthusiasts. This is pretty simple and straightforward and we think that everyone that has ever been to any of our events will agree, this is exactly the environment we offer and provide.
2) The secondary purpose of Meguiar's Garage is to help our forum member evaluate their finish, determine their car care goals and then show them the products they need and provide them with the training to properly apply these product to reach their goals. This can include working on a section of each car to thoroughly show which product to you and the process and techniques to apply them, but it does not mean detailing the entire car while it's at Meguiar's.
While there are exceptions, because of the popularity of Meguiar's Garage, in order to be fair to everyone, we have to share our resources with everyone and this means allowing everyone to bring their car into Meguiar's Garage to work on it and this of course means limiting how long a single car can physically be in the garage before having to move it out to make room for the next car.
So beginning this Wednesday night, we will be happy to show you which products to use and how to use them on a panel or two on your car, but after that we'll need to move your car out of the garage to enable someone else to benefit from this same hospitality by pulling their car into our facilities to work on it.
Our goal is to equip each car owner with the knowledge and skill necessary to go out into their garage and successfully detail their car.
Thank you for your cooperation! :) :xyxthumbs

Hi Mike,
I will be there. I will probably bring my Black Audi A3 to see if someone can show me what I am doing wrong with it. Looks great under the sun but with the xenon light, the gloss could be better.

Remember, it's almost impossible to please teh Zeon light, unless you're driving in a world lit up by Zeon lights, you might have to re-evaluate your goals.
I've added your name to the list. :xyxthumbs

You know Mike I can not stop telling people I work with and my friends how much fun I had on Saturday, and last Wednesday. I am so much more a fan of Meguiar's now. I have been absorbing all the information I have been learning, and having a blast doing it.
Thank you Barry, Mike and the whole crew over at Meguiar's, you guys are top notch! :xyxthumbs

As long as the class doesn't get any fuller, you can sign-up today, we just have to know how many people are going to be here logistically plus place an order for pizza and cold drinks. The pizza order has not been placed yet so you're still in a window of time that you can sign-up.

Just talked to my boss. Looks like I will be able to get off at 4pm today. :)
Of course I washed the car last night since I was planning on going. On the way home from Newport there was a mjor water line that broke and the street was flooded. Of course I couldn't drive around it since the street was flooded deep. My luck. :(
I'll go wash the car right now. Should I apply a thin layer of #26, or not worry about it?
As for my car, there is a small panel on top between the t-tops that has water spots on it. That's what I want to work on tonight, along with the typical swirls the pervous owner put into the car.
See you guys tonight.
