Charlotte area guys speak up

I am in Mooresville.

Figured I would get an idea of who is around here. I am a "Detailer" at a stealership, and I am trying to actually learn to detail. I am tired of getting crap when I take my time on a car, or try new techniques.

anyway, stop in here and say hi

BigAl3 · 07-28-08, 02:43

I am in Charlotte. I am more than willing to work on a car sometime with you if you want. Feel free to PM me.

Statesville here, so just north of you.

Drop me a PM sometime.

Not a professional detailer . Not sure, I am up to amateur status either. LOL I have just recently caught the bug (when I got a new car last fall) and have mainly been learning, practicing, and trying not to do more damage than good...

BoostedMopar · 07-30-08, 02:46

Ha, its ok man you have to start somewhere. I am learning myself.
Nice color choice on the Mustang! Any mods?

08StangGT · 08-02-08, 08:55

Thanks! I did not want to wait on the Bullitt "Hunter Green" and already had one black car, so that left red... I liked the darker metallic red better than the bright red. (And my Ranger is bright red so at least a LITTLE variety in colors. LOL)

No mods yet. I did order side scoops and had them painted to match when I bought the Mistang. Bascially I am mainly planning appearance modifications. It came with all the power I need... LOL Maybe a cold air intake one day...

A guy I work with has a nice one
70 FlashBack: 2006 Mustang GT - Mooresville, North Carolina
He does a lot of stuff with all the mustang clubs.

08StangGT · 08-09-08, 01:24

That is nice! Not into the car shows though as I drive it too much. LOL Would like to go to some of them to see his car though... Maybe get some pointers...

I'm from Charlotte. I'm getting ready to try my own full detail over a few days on labor day weekend.

Here's what I'm working on:
with standard 19s - a set on Flickr

I plan on taking plenty of pictures (before, during, after) and document each step as I go.

This is my first time doing the full work up and I'm using a portal cable orbital buffer. I'll get to a rotary one day (baby steps...).

Anyway, if anyone is interested in coming by to check it out, have a beer, and give some advice... shoot me a PM. I will try to wash/clay Friday, polish1/polish2/KAI Saturday, wax1/wax2 on Sunday.
