|
|
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.  _________________ Record holder for the highest mileage from a 1.8i Exec BA - 428.9miles    |

| 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. |

Glad I look like a f*** garden gnome. Thanks for telling me my hat was wonky guys...
And christ, my bonnet looks like black glass after that! Can't wait for the weather to brighten up again so I can clean her to that standard!  _________________

cuh, vultures
No good for me, I'd never fit half of my megs products in one of those tiny bags
You won't be fitting the stainless steel megs bottle in there though, will you  _________________ JAE Award forum votes

I did take some pics, mainly of mattys BG, as it was chosen to demonstrate the "how to" by the megs guys
as she came in:
"hmmm, might have bitten off more than we can chew"
Jim gets the claybar out
clayed
Jim telling Matt - "see, if you use our stuff, guys will flock to your car, just to stroke it"
tape off, see where the swirl marks end!
proud owner of a shiny bonnet
Some pics from the pub car park
A great day, thanks to all who came, and big thanks to Rich, and of course Tom and Jim  _________________ JAE Award forum votes

Thanks again for the day out guys, Big thanks to Rich for organising this one. Great to see some old friends and to meet some more of you guys

This event made me miss the old F. Which is strange since all I did was complain about her crappy paint job
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... _________________ DAJMIN
