Today CLUB323F Gold members had the opportunity to attend a Detailing Seminar at Meguiars UK HQ in Daventry.

I only took photo's of the product demo for some reason and here's some of them.......

You'll see that Matty's car was 'the chosen one'!

Recommended to rinse then clay and then wash the car to prep it first.

Step 1 Paint Cleaner
Step 1.1 Ultimate Compound (Use if you want to)
Step 2 Polish
Step 3 Wax

Then simply use quik detailer to keep it clean.

Some very nice new products coming new for Feb 2010. thumbup

Nice, the ultimate compound, was that used for the swirls or? I allready just all the steps, except the Ultimate compound. My car is still lovely red, and don't want to ruin the paint.

Yes, the ultimate compound was to cut at scrateches and swirls in order to reduce swirls and light scratches. thumbup

This event made me miss the old F. Which is strange since all I did was complain about her crappy paint job Smile
I'll get another one someday.

The seminar definitely worked like a charm on me though - I now want to buy load of Meguiar's stuff. Stupid lack of funding... mutter mutter...
