Great get together, Alan, thanks for turning me on the those egg tarts, really fooled me, not what I exepected, delicious.
Steve was impressed by all of us, Loved the cars.
I had a smile on the whole ride back home. Amazing results. The G seemed more responsive and agile all the way home.... Varoom

Perspective.... Got the whole family out to look at the G while they were watching West Wing .

Whatacar says Whatadifference.
Thanks Kevin.

Cheers
Sam

Hey guys,

Too bad I couldn't get there for the training but it was really nice getting there at the end and meeting all of you.

Thanks,
Edmund

A big thanks to Kevin for sharing your wealth of knowledge! I sure learned a lot today. Another big thanks goes to Sam for getting the location and for putting on a spread and keeping us from going hungry and thirsty. Much appreciated. Nice meeting you all and hopefully we'll get together again.

Cheers,

Wynand

Thanks guys, it was awesome to meet you all too. Nice to put faces to names! I'm ready for the test.

So here is my quick recomendations on products for those interested. Actually instead of making a huge post here let me put it online and link to it.

http://www.gtaindetail.com/product.html

There ya go. A bit hard to read, I didn't want to do too much html work on it because I'm tired.

I hope all the links work. Cheers guys.

Had a lot of fun today guys...and learned a lot about detailing. Thanks for giving up your day Kevin, we all very much appreciated it.

And thanks to Sam for having such a great BIL....Steve is a terrific guy, Sam, and we owe much of our success today to him.
Good eats too Sam....thanks for bringing all that....Yummy...
I think the guy that worked the most ate the least tho..
Kevin, you busted your butt today for us and we really appreciate it.

Great pics, Sam's car was transformed into a Ravishing Black Beauty..Very impressive.
I'll bet it did run well coming home Sam...

Thanks for hooking us up with the products, Kevin. I'll go over the list you posted and pm you my request.

Nice to see everyone today. Hope to meet up again soon.

Cheers everybody

Colin

HOLY CRAP!
That's awsome work man! Black is so hot then it's clean. But keeping it clean is a full time job. I told myself that this was the last black car I was going to buy. You just changed my mind.

I'm so bummed I couldn't make it. I had family stuff to do. Really wish I could have been there.

I really need a detail like that as you can see...
Please don't laugh at the swirl marks

Hey guys, it was great to see you all yesterday. I wish I could have stayed longer but my crew had plans already. Hopefully we can have another "MEET & SHINE" event real soon.

Ya, it was definitely good to meet you. And believe it or not we're already talking about another "meet and shine".

No problem - family first... well, sometimes.

Let me know if you have any detailing questions or if you want me to look at the car.

Awesome event guys! It was great to see everybody again finally. Hopefully summer is now here and we can have a lot more meets.

Thanks again Sam for the great food, I was really impressed, and thanks for arranging the use of the shop. It was perfect.

Thanks to Kevin for the detailing lessons and I am really stoked to try it on my "G" as soon as I get some supplies from you.

See you all at the next meet.

Good ol' Infiniti paint. Don't get me wrong, I love detailing so I like working on it, but in relation to other cars it's definitely tough to work with.

Oh Sam - the hat got it's first use today. Fits like a glove!

Great, Black looks good on you Kevin. On the way to work I let a dump truck stay way ahead of me cuz I wanted to maintain the shine longer. Didn't work .
The G is dusty but still looks great.

Kevin and Sam,

Thank you for such an informative day. Now I can see where I go wrong when I P/C my car.
The food was an added bonus and delicious too!!!
Sam, please thank your BIL for the use of his place.

I hope that we can have a even bigger meet next time. The turnout was really great.

Hope to see you all again soon.

B.
