The Car Girl
On May 8th, 2004 Meguiar’s will proudly host a hands-on detailing “How-To� class for members of Autopia here at our Irvine location.



Donuts and coffee will be served at 8:30am with class starting at 9:00am sharp. and continuing until the last man standing. Pictures of the event will be posted to Meguiar’s online discussion forum under Detail Days at Meguiar's



This hands-on how-to class will cover both the basics of detailing as well as some advanced techniques and procedures for detailing every inch of your car or truck. Hands-on demonstrations include how to take your finish to it's maximum potential.



Topics include,



* Meguiar’s 5-step paint care cycle

* Meguiar’s Consumer line of products including the new NXT Generation line of products

* Meguiar’s Professional line, including, Nikken Finishing papers, Compounds, Cleaner/Polishes, Pure Polishes, and Paint Protectants, as well as using Meguiar’s foam pad technology.

* Techniques for using your hands, rotary buffers and the Porter Cable Dual-Action Polisher will be discussed and demonstrated.



Each attendee will receive a Meguiar’s gift bag for attending. You are encouraged to bring your car or truck, and if you have any isolated defects, such as an isolated scratch in your hood, door, or other panel, we will do our best to massage it out using Meguiar's Unigrit Finishing papers, diminishing abrasives compounds and cleaner/polishes and Meguiar’s Soft Buff foam pad technology.



If you would like to attend the Autopia Detail Day at Meguiar’s in Irvine, CA, or for more information, please contact Lynn Phillips via PM should you have any questions or if you would like to add your name to the list. Please include your first and last name.



Spaces are limited to 20 cars/trucks and one person per ride. (This is due to limited space in the classroom.)



Also, make sure you come to the event with your cars already washed. We have facilities to wash cars but it makes a big slippery mess so for safety reasons we don't wash cars on Meguiar’s Detail Days.

Just a reminder...



A huge portion of the class is hands on and you will be working on your cars! This is why we can't have any more than 30 cars or people. ;)



The North County Corvette Club Detail Day thread will give everyone a good idea of how the day will go...
 
Here's the information:

I have had a few questions about hotels in the area for those who may not want to drive home after the event so I thought I would post the information that I have. There are other hotels in the area but this one gives Meguiar's a discount.
