LOL, I dont remember being behind you the whole way but if it makes you happy so be it. :lol

Nice, that is what happens when you get caught behind a couple slower cars and get trapped. I guess I will give you 15 seconds of glory.:bigups

Thanks, The pork was mine. 16 hours on the smoker, which worked out well since it was also the same amount of time it took me to wipe the Klasse sealant glaze off of a detail I was doing at the same time. Anyone have some good advice on how to remove KSG easily? As for the gas, I can't claim that though I have been accused of being an old fart!:chuckle:

Stop using KSG and start using Opti Seal and Blackfire and your set

 

[Chas]

Amen to Blackfire! :woot:

I used this because the customer had it and wanted me to use it. I have and love blackfire, I hope to try the opti-seal this week.

It was very enjoyable. I know when DJ has some free time that he will gladly show his photography skills from the class. Take care.

 

[7-Sins]

Hi,



Are there any plans to do future classes like this? I'm in NOVA and want to learn, but don't want to butcher my car on my first attempt.

Hey guys, I just got done uploading 1100 pics of the past weeks jobs so stay tuned for a few that I took of the class. I didn't get as many pictures as I would of liked since I was busy teaching and no one was there to snap some photos. Thanks again to all who came.

 

[Chas]

I took some pictures while I was there but havent had a chance to upload them so I will try and get to loading mine up as well.

 

[SpeedTheory]

I can't believe I missed out on this! I'm only about 90 min away from where this class was and would definitely have been first in line for it. Please, please tell me there will be another class in the somewhat near future!

Hey guys, Autopia is being dumb again and I can't make a new thread. Follow the link for the pictures and write-up and leave your comment here. Thanks again everyone!!

First of all, thanks to Eric (Howareb) for helping me out with the class and allowing the use of his BEAUTIFUL shop. We had a great turnout and everyone was able to get hands on and learn a few things. We had some great food and got to meet some great people. Thanks to everyone who attended.



Secondly, I would like to thanks the sponsors of the class who sent out supplies for us to play with during the demonstrations and then at the end of the class, I raffled the supplies off to make sure no one left empty handed. Without our sponsors, this is not possible. So I truly mean it, THANK YOU!!!



The sponsors are as followed.



Megan @ AutoGeek



George @ Detailedimage



Phil @ Detailersdomain



Kevin @ Kleen Car



DaveB @ High Definition







The table of supplies from the sponsors

Note: The clock in the backround, it's nearly 4am and Eric and I were still up from 8am the previous morning. We cleaned the shop, got everything set up and ready for the class that was taking place in 7 hours. With some music jammin, and jokes that weren't funny (although when your that tired, they are hilarious) the time went by and I would do it again if I could.

One of our guest, Tom agreed to use his car for the test vehicle. Thanks again buddy!! Before we got started Eric and I were taking turns giving classroom style instructions on proper techniques and products. Then we took a short break, had lunch then got to work.

We gave Tom, the car owner the first crack at machine polishing.
