It was another successful and fun Thursday Night @ Meguiar's Garage. Thanks to all who were able to make it down

We had a good mix of "1st timers" and "veterans" who all shared the same passion for detailing

So I see a Black TL, m105, a G110 with a polishing pad.

Sooooo... Does that mean the entire car was done with 105 using a polishing pad?

I have some fun time at Meguiar's yesterday. Mike & Mike Show at Meguiar's Open Garage is the best place to hang out on Thursday night! Great place to learn on proper detail technique, help out others, and have fun with some of the great friends. Thank you all for making this happen!

Lots of activity last night, no doubt about it - plenty of swirls, scratches and other defects to remove. High concentration of Acura models as well.... hmmmm.

Did we mention swirls????



Swirls, meet Ultimate Compound. UC - 1, Swirls - 0



There were some deep gouges in this hood from something that got kicked up on the freeway.



The deepest gouges were deep enough that we didn't want to keep attacking them, but the end result was an enormous improvement thanks to M105.



Just a bunch of car guys and gals hanging out at Meguiar's Open Garage



Hydrophobic, baby!!



Double teaming the Benz with clay



Jason Rose stopped by to join in the fun!



Mike Pennington demonstrates the Headlight Restoration Kit.



Fingernail scratches in the door handle cups on a C-Class Benz:



ScratchX 2.0 - 1, Fingernail Scratches - 0



The Acurazine group points the way to ...... well, we aren't completely sure what their point is here.

I need to move down to So Cal, change my name to Mike, and apply for a job at Meguiar's.

I wouldn't mind teaching people all day about car care and doing some crazy makeovers like those. Looks like a lot of fun indeed!
