Atlanta area detailers- help
Hey all Atlanta area detailers - my name is William and I just ordered a PC and some polishes and pads (sonus stuff). So, this is my first time I will be using any of this, and well, I need some help. I will start with my mom's car which is midnight blue, and swirl marks and some serious scratches on the hood and a fender. Basically, I would just like to meet up with someone who has been doing this, and just kinda help me out I guess and offer some guidance. I don't have any really fancy stuff, because well, I'm just getting into the game. So i would like to be able see what results I can get out of what I have.
I'm just throwing this out in the open, if this is viable, we can work out details later.
Thank you all

Re: Atlanta area detailers- help
I would love to get in on this if anyone offers. I have a PC as well, and some assorted polishes and sealants. I would be glad to pay for you time etc. I learn much better by watching so this would be a great thing for me.

Re: Atlanta area detailers- help
All of my stuff arrived yesterday, and really the only time I will be available without asking time off for work would be Wednesday through Friday of next week (Aug. 8-10). IF anyone is available then and would like to help me out, please send me a PM and we can work something out. I will be available nay weekend, I just need to ask for the time off two weeks in advance (I'm still in high school and trying to make some cash, so I work when I can). Thanks again.
-William

Thanks again Wade for teaching me how to use the PC. Now I just need to clean out our garage.

Re: Atlanta area detailers- help
You're very welcome. Clean that garage out and get to work.  Make sure you post some Click and brag shots when you're all finished.

Wait until you finish it down with a lighter polish and less agressive pad. She'll be able to tell, I betcha. When you seal it up it's going to look awesome.
Bryan,
I'm sure you could teach me a thing or two. I'll probably buy some Edge wool here soon.
