Advanced Class Sign-up Thread
Meguiar's Car Care 201
Saturday May 17th, 2008

Date: May 17th, 2008
Time: 9:00am to 1:00pm
Place: Meguiar's Inc
Street: 17991 Mitchell South
City/State: Irvine, CA 92614
Mapquest Driving Directions (http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?formtype=search&countryid=250&addtohistory=&country=US&address=17991+Mitchell+South&city=Irvine&state=ca&zipcode=&historyid=&submit=Get+Map)



Requirements:
You must have first attended our Car Care 101 class and can document this with your forum name on a sign-up thread in our Sign-up Forum (http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=110). We will check forum names and e-mail addresses to the sign-up thread forum, precedence will always go to members that have legitimately replied to a Car Care 101 Sign-up thread and attended the Saturday class and there's a record of this here on the forum.

Classes Size Limitations
12 individuals, these classes are not available for entire clubs. Small Classes mean more one-on-one attention.

Electronic Lottery
Due to the overwhelming demand for our Advanced classes, the only fair way we've come up with to determine who can attend is by an electronic lottery.

Besides the lottery, you have to have attended one of our Saturday Car Care 101 Clinics and be able to show you've attended by having signed-up via the sign-up thread and then actually attended. Anyone caught cheating by entering more than once will be banned without warning.


Meguiar's Advanced Class will cover,

* How to wet-sand paint by hand
* How to use an Air Powered DA Sander
* How to use the Rotary Buffer
* How to use a Dual Action Polisher
* Plus a lot more...


A "Certificate of Completion" (http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21354) suitable for display will be presented to all students that attend the entire class.




***Update - April 29th, 2008***

Dear Mike, Please add me to this Lottery.

Mike,

Just out of curiosity, when will the lottery be held? I remember that the lottery for the previous Advanced class was held a few weeks before the actual class took place, but I think that was also in consideration for people who were trying to get airplane tickets booked to come out...

Hmm.. I guess I couldn't make it to the 12. I was just wondering how the electronic lottery work. Do you mind explaining to rest of us who didn't get picked?

Appreciate it.

[Mike Phillips]

One of our accountants runs the names through some kind of Excel program.

It's that or we place the names on little pieces of paper and toss them into a hat.

Looked at your posting history here,

http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/search.php?searchid=715197

And yep... looks like you really want to go to the advanced class. The first class had too many people, 17 if we remember correctly. We knocked that down to 12 for all future classes and that means less people get to attend but the people that do attend will get more attention.


We've had 2 people cancel for the next class so we're going to do a lotter of the 5 alternates to fill their place. We're open to you suggestion as to how to select people if you think you have a better idea.


Alternates
Brentin – hybridnrg - Confirmed
christopherjhayes - Confirmed
Tony - GT Tony - Confirmed
tpierce74
will-willhawk - Confirmed


We're trying to keep the selection process fair and yet simple as we have a lot of other things to do on the forum and behind the scenes and time is always a valuable commodity.

Thanks for understanding.


By the way, which one is you?

[SpeedSteam]

Hi Mike,

Yes, of course. I really wanted to attend that advanced class like everyone else. I apologize if you thought I have stepped on your toe. I was just simply curious about it. I was sitting on the far left between 2nd gentleman wearing white t-shirts and 4th in red. I'm kind of blocked off half way.

I will check back again for next class.

Appreciate your reply.

Lottery pick is already over, sorry, you had to sign-up before April 29th... if none of the alternates can fill in for the cancellations then we'll do another lottery pick.

No worries, you're not stepping on anyone's toes. :)

Just to avoid any conflicts I specifically remove myself from the lottery pick process.

Hi mike! I'm bringing my benz with deep key scratches that I filled with touch up paint. They are still very visible. I hope wet sanding will fix this or I know you'll know what to do. Thanks.

This class is about the things already outlined on this forum, we already have a demo car lined up for our hands-on lessons. You can take the skills and techniques you learn at the class with you to work on the touch-up paint on your car in your garage.

The advanced classes are not like the Thursday night classes where our members are invited to bring cars to work on.

Just want to be clear on that so there's no false expectations.
