Awesome, it was fantastic! It was finally nice to meet and put a face to all u guys. Carlos, what can I say, u are the man! It was very nice of u to spend some time with us, I learned alot! I am really looking forward to finally claybar and polish my car, I have always been afraid to but after practicing on Shawns' car it wasn't bad, but I can tell it will take some time to do this. Just need some patience thats all. Thanks again Carlos and Adam for setting this up

Many thanks to Carlos for hosting this, and to Adam for organizing. It was definatly informative.
I learned that my 8+ hours of polishing was useless, but atleast I know how to properly do the next 8 hours
Great meet as always!

Best thing was getting some solid advice and instruction on equipment, products and technique from a guy who really knows what he's doing -- that would be Carlos, not any of the rest of us detailing noobs!!
