On Thursday nights, starting at 5:30pm and going until around 10:00pm, Meguiar's will host an Open Garage in which registered members of our Meguiar's Online Discussion Forum can sign-up to try out Meguiar's complete arsenal of products and tools with experienced and trained experts on hand to help you as well as show you the proper techniques for getting show car results!





The goal of these events is to give people a chance to,

Try out products they may have never used or even known about.
Learn the correct technique for applying and removing specific products or using different tools.
These classes are not for bringing your car down to do a complete detail as in machine polishing and waxing the entire car. We will show you the products and techniques using a fender or the hood and letting you learn and practice on this one section but after that you will need to finish the rest of the car at your garage. By doing this more people can get their car into the garage and learn in the limited amount of time that we have and that's what these events are about, people learning how to detail their car, not one or two people using the garage from 5:00pm to 10:00pm to detail their entire car.



To bring your car to Thursday Night "Open Garage", you need to be a registered (http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/register.php?s=)member (http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/register.php?s=) and then "Reply" to to this sign-up thread.


IMPORTANT NOTE:
You are only allowed to sign-up for yourself and immediate family members that are living in your home. Friends, family and other club members will need to sign-up for themselves.

Note: Please do not show up before 5:00pm as we have to remember there are a lot of people still working and we cannot disrupt them and their duties plus the parking lot is full until regular employees begin to leave at 5:00pm

hello everyone. I would like to stop by and see if you could help me find the way to make my fathers BMW shine again. I can most likely stop by this thursday or on the 18th. Its a single stage paint from the looks of it.

Hi Ron,

Feel free to bring the BMW over, we may be able to make the paint shine, won't know until we try a few things, but we won't be able to remove the cracking in the paint.

Be careful not to let anyone try just any old compound on that old, dried out single stage paint, it will chew it right off and leave you an ugly spot.

Paints like this can often times be salvaged but you need to take a gentle approach, not an aggressive/abrasive approach.

:)

Just to note, when signing up for class the way you post you name is,

First name space hypen space forum name

That would look like,

Mike - speeder88

Not, speeder88 - Mike or speeder88/Mike or any other variation...

There's actually a reason for this. ;)


Thanks!
