The day has finally been selected and first things first, the event is being held here, one of the top auto detailing shops in the U.S.A.

Chicago Auto and Car Detailing by LUSTR Auto Detail - Quality and Professional Car Detailing Services in Chicagoland

Big thanks to Ivan for allowing us to have our little get together here:dblthumb2: It looks like there's going to be 2 cars to work on, one is black Civic, ahhh, soft, black Honda paint! Not sure about the other car, but when we know something, it will posted here for sure. I threw out the idea of everyone getting a panel or section of the car to do and it seems like a good enough idea so that's the plans there so far, any other suggestions are more than welcome, this is what its all about learning something and having a good time with fellow Geeks.

Now I'd say you should bring your detailing tools with you and if for some reason you don't have a wheel, no problem, there's gong to be enough people there with one, so don't be shy, if you wanna learn how to use one, ask someone and they'll show you, not to mention we've got the owner of the shop there that can also teach you something as well, lots of options for sure. I can only speak for myself, but I'm bringing my entire arsenal, you just never know what you might need or even what someone else might need, again, this is what its all about. I say this because someone might wanna see how say, DuraGloss or BlackFire work, no problem, I've got it. You may wanna show off a particular product you like/have, say Pinnacle Souvern or Fuzion, great, bring it, I'd like to see/try out some Fuzion myself (hint, hint). Whatever you wanna bring or have, your good to go. I plan on bringing my 2 buckets and Aqua sponge so the car's can be cleaned using the rinseless method but we'll still need a hose/power washer for the wheels/wheelwells though, shouldn't be an issue at all. I'm sure the majority of the people attending have a rinseless wash but you never know, someone might be there not convinced of it, so here's you chance to see it in action, up close and personal and yes once again, you can actually step up and try it for yourself, get your hands dirty, wait, get your hands clean, LOL!

Here is the current list of who's planning on attending so far:

In closing, looking forward to putting a face with a screen name, making new friends, having a good time over detailing, cars and food. Oh yeah, speaking of food, we're probably going to be ordering pizza, so try and bring some singles and five's with you, makes things sooooooo much easier.
 
Sounds like a fun-filled day. Enjoy folks and don't forget the PICS!
 
I'm interested, but couldn't find an address for the shop. Count me in!

Hope this helps Tim.
 
I'm sure Ivan will come in with the actual address for those of us whom are GPS needy, LOL!

Oh and BTW, if you wanna add yourself to the list, copy and paste your name to the list and only put the list up, thanks.
 
Subscribed, and the shop is 10 minutes from my house. So I should have no excuse if I don't attend.

Things are shaping up quite nicely guys, thanks!
 
Roger, first off, thanks for letting me know about this thread, NOT! :)

The address is on my contact page on the google map to the right of the contact form, but here it is anyway:

18A Golf Center
Hoffman Estates, IL 60169

For some reason Google lists it as 18 even though I enter 18A, but it leads to the same place. Here are some brief directions to find the shop in the plaza, which is on the southwest corner of Golf and Roselle roads.

The shop is called Underground Autosports and there's a vinyl sign hanging above the tiny front door. We're located on the South-West corner of Golf and Roselle streets in Hoffman Estates. The shop is situated in the West group of buildings, just North of TJ-Maxx, between Party City and Fabbrini's Flowers.

Actually, if you simply zoom on google maps, you'll see a little dot for LUSTR Auto Detail, which will make it clear roughly where the shop is located.
 
Sorry Ivan, I thought when you suggested to just go ahead and make the thread you knew I was doing it, sorry, made the tread when I got up on Sunday.

Does anyone have an other suggestions on what you'd like to see/do, like a product you'd like to see, a process, etc?
 
Keep in mind guys, if you plan on coming, copy/paste the list and add your name. If you don't you might miss out of other people fill up the list.

I am a big possibility. As we get closer I will know for sure. What are you guys doing for food? The reason I ask is because I work for the worlds largest purveyor of salty snacks. Do we need snax at this event?
