I`m still here and willing to have a meet anytime we can arrange. I am in my shop most mornings and you all can feel free to stop by to chat, try out some of my stuff, whatever. Shoot me an email and I will give you my Ph#. Have a Happy Fathers Day.

Thanks. detailing has been slow this month. :waxing: But that gave me some time to work on the house. :sadwavey: Sorry, no sink yet. It is far down on the project list. Family is great, about to make our second trip to Fl this season. :bounce . Kids do love Sea World! I need to order some Hi Temp and some Optimum if anybody wants to go in with me.

I might be interested in a TOL Order, just email me. Heavy Cut, Prep Wash (Very useful IMO). Otherwise my Opt order will be in the Wintertime.

I`ll bring the CPO RX330 we just grabbed from Johnson, not very happy with the paint finish after seeing some mild carwash marring. Not bad overall however.

I don`t mean for this to sounds nasty, and I know that we all have lives to love, but why the hell is it so hard for us to set up a meet & greet/ detail?

I`ve been part of 4 to 5 different threads talking about getting together... and it always fizzles out. I still consider myself to be in the learning stages of detailing, only detail for myself and a few friends, and don`t have some big fancy garage (so envious of you who do!), but am always open to the idea to meet other detailers. It just seems that in the last year I`ve been with Autopia, we just can`t a meet put together. Do people think others will steal their secrets? I even tried to get Meguiar`s to come out here and do a lil demo. Mike was all up for it if we could get the commiment from a group of peps to go to an event put on by Meg`s. But, no serious bites on participation from the community... sigh.

I just don`t understand.

Ok, well lets set a date. How about Saturday the 30th..

**delikid** · 06-19-2007, 07:54 AM

OK... so... the details (no pun intended):

Who: I imagine that there`d only be a handful of folks? Unless people unexpectedly pile on?

When: Saturday June 30th, say... 11am? 12pm? 1pm? and maybe... a couple hours? 3 hrs maybe?

Where: I know a few folks have very spiffy garages. But, I don`t want to volunteer anyone. With the heat being SO hateful this week, not being out in the open would be nice

What: The ultimate question. So, we could get together and just admire detailings. We could bring some of our primary, `must-have` products and demo them and our techniques on our own cars (or someone elses if they offered! :O ). We could get together and go over areas of our details that are a pain in the butt to deal with and any tips you`ve found. We could have some of our community pros offer up a lil how-to to some beginners. We could do all of this?

To not have our first session spiral out of control, I`m partial to the "bring some of our primary, `must-have` products and demo them" and the "go over areas of our details that are a pain in the butt to deal with and any tips you`ve found."

I`m not trying to steal anyones thunder by pushing us to do something, and I`m not dictating what we should do. I just want us to do SOMETHING. A number of us are local to the N.C. Triangle area. And I`d like to try to get us all together and shake hands and chat.... like them boys out thar in Ca-lee-for-nee-a do all thu time! Ya know?!
