I'm not really interested in trying to put together some kinda SEMA or NOPI class; thoese people don't need a newbie class. But, they also don't seem to really be offering up their expertise in helping others...
So, my conversations with Mike Phillips, from Meguiar's, is that he seems genuinely interested in spreading the knowledge of detailing. Even if it is a promotion of Meg's products, it's still an effort to promote detailing and give knowledge! |
Delikid,
I agree that this class is a good one for beginners. It offers a lot of the basics, and gives you a great foundation to build on. Mike Phillips is definitely a huge proponent of detailing, both at the beginner level and the professional level.
Maybe you should try to organize a detailing day, and see which experienced detailers would like to participate. Sometimes it's gatherings like that that really help hone your technique.
My .02,
Ntwrkguy1

I have been offering up my 60x40 heated garage for a year or so now for a detail day in raleigh. We have never been able to get anything up off the ground.
I would definatly be up for a meg's detail day. I need to work on my swirl removal steps.
