Pictures & Comments - Atlanta, Georgia Roadshow Class!

More!!!

All the pictures posted by me so far were ACTION pictures taken on Friday.

Did you see any chairs?

Did you see a Power Point Presentation on a screen on the wall?


Now I’m going to document what you get to do on the second day of the 2-day Roadshow Car Detailing Class.

First thing is the FLEX Power Tools Class. This is where everyone has the chance to use the following tools.

  1. The XC 3401 VRG aka the BEAST!
  2. The XFE7-15 aka the FINISHER
  3. The XFE7-1280 aka the 3" long stroke mini polisher
  4. The FLEX XFE15-150 18.0-EC aka the Cordless Finisher
  5. The FLEX XCE 8 18.0-EC aka the CBEAST!



FLEX with Lake Country Pads and SONAX CutMax.

+1 on Bart's comments. This class is fully hands-on. From the pictures, you can see that there are hundreds of products to choose from. We used an extensive amount of products and equipment and we were always able to ask questions and work with products of interest. Most enthusiasts know the basic process of detailing but it was nice to have a platform to fine tune the steps that will make a difference with a show car shine. Also wanted so thanks for letting us apply a ceramic coating. Enjoyed talking with Jim Thomas about the specifics. Fascinating advancement in the detailing world.

Thanks Mike for your enthusiastic commitment to these classes. Kudos to my classmates for working on my neighbor's Honda!

What do you get to do at an Autogeek class?

What don’t you get to do!

I always try to have cars with canvas tops to show the correct way to clean them and then protect them.

For this class we have the owner of RaggTopp - Rick Goldstein’s personal classic Porsche to train on!

Re: Offline for a few days - Atlanta, Georgia Roadshow Class!

I really enjoyed Mike's presentation and teaching skills.

I have been thinking of getting tools to do a better job on my and my wife's car, but I didn't want to just start buying tools not really knowing what would be right for me. We got to use a lot of different machines and products, and we got top-notch education from Mike on the benefits of all of it.

The hands on use of the tools and products allowed me to find what I think was right for me and my needs.

Reading about something or watching videos doesn't compare to actually getting your hands on something and using it.

I purchased the tools and products I wanted from Autogeek and am hoping the weather will straighten out soon so I can use them.

Some of the people in the class do detailing for a living and they learned a lot too. If you're at all interested on how to take care of your cars better, or if you do this for a living and think you could use more information, I highly recommend taking one of these classes if you get a chance.

Thanks Mike! It was a long day of hard work, but I had a blast and I learned a ton.
