Checkin' In - Ready For Some Information Overload!!

Hi everyone,

Stumbled across the forum this morning and have been searching around a bit. Looks like there's a ton of great information here, and I'm happy to be aboard.

I'm a detail hobbyist who is about to embark on a research mission to better understand what I need to know to detail cars properly.

I've been using Zaino on my own vehicles (and those of my family) for a couple years now, and have the outside part of cars down to an acceptable level for the general public. But I've got SO much more to learn.

My goal is to take my hobby to the next level and try and start doing details for money on the weekends sometime in the next six months or so.

Eventually, I'd like to start up a mobile detail business. But before then, I'm on a LONG homework assignment here and elsewhere to learn my stuff (and then go practice it).

Good to be here and I look forward to being taught a few things.

Welcome to the DC 'hood. You have come to the right place to learn. DC is full of people who know their stuff. unfortunately, I am not one of them. Haha!!
 
Hmmm nice two tone. What mods? How much... not that I can buy... gone to detailing products!

Thanks!

Now I'm here to learn how to make my lil' VW and my wife's MINI look as good as some of the cars here do. The VW has been good to me so far. The MINI is a PITA to get looking good. Hard to have more fun driving though. :)
