HI GUYS & gals DAVE from NewZealand

Unfortunately not hehe :p



I'm an 18yo student just finishing 7th form in Auckland. I have been really keen on finding a holiday job with a valet company. I'd enjoy it a lot more than working at the warehouse thats for sure. I found there is also an automotive refinishing training center in east tamaki, Might give them a call sometime and find out when they are running courses for machine work etc. I really want to get into machine polishing :clap:



At the moment I am building up my collection of products/accessories for use on my own (toyota echo) and family/friends cars (for a small fee :p ) I just found L.J. Smits here in wairau park stock meguiars professional products :woohoo: although they are probably overpriced and meguiars may not be the best its working for me at the moment :)



Hopefully I will be importing a UDM for christmas, along with some sonus polishes and pads :cool:
 
Hello Guys,



I cant see why Meguiars G110 or UDM wont be avalible AUS or NZ, they are making 240V versions for the UK. I would assume, at some point in 2008 you could purchase one there, or even get a UK one and change the plug?!



Hello Tony, i read your posts on Mothers!

I've been looking but cant find a 240v UDM anywhere? :confused:



Laseracer: What MF towels do you use? I have just been collecting the Kenco ones (can get them in 6 packs from kmart) but wandering if there are better ones available locally?
 
Better ones need to be sourced from waxit here in australia or O/S from Pakshak/Autopia car care/Detailers Paradise

I'm getting some direct from a big south korean manufacturer very shortly.



Most people here know that I'm not a meguiars fan, I left that behind ten years ago

Like autoglym and other brands in this bracket, they have fallen behind in some areas



NZ sure is an awesome looking place. I must get there at some time in my life.

Oh and I got my shop size wrong, it's 1100 sq metres on a 2000 sq metre lot (tonnes of car parking

Do you mean UDM? or something like the UDM?



I had a look on waxit and those machines are wayyy too expensive for me :scared:
 
240 UDM isnt out yet, should be here before christmas (UK) But the Meguiars 240V is defiantly suppose to arrive before christmas.

Great! :spot Looking foward to it.



Picked up a meg's waffle weave MF drying towel from LJ Smits today, Woooah i've been missing out :faint:

Also got a small 250ml pot of touch up paint (I believe he said it was a base coat with clear mixed in) Just need some isoprophyl alcohol to clean out the chips on my hood properly before filling them.



In other news, I'm finding it hard to find a part time detailing job anywhere semi close to home :hm



Oh well, Best wishes to all NZ Autopians :D
 
Hi guys, breathing a bit of life into our sub-forum. Another K1W1 here, in Auckland. :D

I'm heavily involved in the car club environment, so most of my work is full on show work, concours d' elegance + other details when I have time.



adamkerrnz, not far away from you, so if you need help, sing out. :up
 
Hey - just a curious American looking into the possibilty of moving to NZ one day. Do you have the right to own guns, hunt, fish etc?
 
Bump!!!!



Anybody in Auckland who is willing to check out/quote a detail on my Milano Red (2k Paint) Honda Torneo?



Flick a pm.



Cheers!
