Detailing seminar

(This event was approved for posting by David, owner of Autopia)
I will be hosting a FREE detailing seminar at the Franklin Park Library on Nov 29th from 7-9pm. This is my last clinic for 2005. Since I opened Perfect Auto Finish in 2001 part of my business plan was to educate people in regard to car care. I have hosted over 170 clinics to date and also teach this class at the college of dupage. (the first time ever a detailing class was ever offered at a college level) If you are a novice with a desire to learn about modern techniqes/applications/products and procedures, come to the class. The Chicago Tribune and the Daily Herald both published positive feedback about the class and you can read the articles on my web site. www.perfectautofinish.com please call the Library if you plan on attending so they have enough seating. 847 455 6016, again, this event is free. Gary Kouba, Owner

What??? College-level detailing class? I should move back to Naperville to take that class!

I have classes 5days/wk, so unfortunately I can't make it there. I guess next year during spring break or summer break I'll have to drop down there for one of your clinics.

I'm full of suprises. I also have an advanced class at my shop where we do wet sanding/buffing and serious paint correction. I was going to wait till Prinz bought a new car so we can experiment on it.

As an avid detailer, I attended one of Gary's classes's this past summer, and I even learned a bit.

I'ld highly recommend attending if you can.

Ive also been to one of Garys classes, they are great . You can learn a lot . As far as waiting till Prinz gets a new car , do you think that you will live that long.

At the rate the Maxima hunt is going, I am wondering the same thing.

Mitch: I can't fit in a 350Z. I am not as small as you.

Prinz, I think you would look good in a Maybach or Bentley coupe.

I am seriously thinking about turning this into a Midwest Autopia meet.
