This workshop is geared towards how to maximize the appearance of your clearcoated vehicle, generally some late 80's and nearly all early 90’s and up.

We will cover in depth the 5 universal basics of car care in the workshop:

1. Washing
2. Cleaning
3. Polishing
4. Protecting
5. Maintaining

Learning how to incorporate these concepts into your regular vehicle maintenance routine will consistently produce a great looking vehicle with that “deep wet look” we all dream of. I think you will be surprised how easy it is to achieve “show quality” results with a minimum investment of time and money. This is one event that will give you tips you can use for the rest of your life no matter what kind vehicle you own.

This year's format will be a little different. There will be less demonstration and more question and answer. So please come armed with questions about your specific situation. If you would like to bring your car in for me to look at (hopefully the weather will be good), please let me know ahead of time.

Hope to see you there!

Would you be looking to use someone's car as a demo?

I'd like to bring in my car. I always have a difficult time with light scratches in the clear coat. I never know how agressive to be with the swirl removers, they make me a little sguimish.

Well, I'm not looking for a demonstration car but if you would like to bring your car in for the group to see, I would use your car as an example and diagnose the course of action to get your car into shape or how to deal with any unusual problems you may have.

Just let me know ahead of time so we can make arrangements.

If you would like to bring your car in for me to look at as well, that would be fine. We still have some spots open.

You wimps still get to keep your car in a garage!
My sad example of car care lives in a barn with a gravel driveway.

No looking close...you'll laugh. I'll cry.

If I can get the day clear, I might be there with my 'Mystic Mudder'

(Was thinking of getting 44" tires)

The weather looks outstanding this weekend so I hope all who said they would bring their cars do.

To those who are bringing their cars, please be a Griffin a little early so we can park them and so I can look at them some before the seminar. :beer:

Also, if you are bringing in your car, bring it around to the back garage door. We will be parking your car in the back service bays.

Thanks

Chad, we'll be done by 4, sorry. :(

How's the intercooler project going?

Well Damn!... I miss all the good stuff. The intercooler is taken care of. Did a little porting right away too. Just a little home porting, I didn't send it out. Are you guys doing anything together after the Shop Talk? I'll be in Milwaukee, so I'll be close this weekend. Have fun, wish I could be there.
See ya later,
Chad

Nothing is planned after the workshop and if I didn't have plans it would have been great to meet up somewhere. :beer:
