Heres some photos guys. I would love to tell my story of the amazing time I had with a great bunch of friends but out of time so I made it quick. The best part of DetailFest is hanging out with some of the best people I've had the pleasure of knowing.

I have to apologize I have very few photos of the full process. Just a couple from a few parts of my preparation as I was strapped for time and barely anything at the show for the same reason. A few good ones though.


Taped off the paint before applying 3 coats of 303 HTFG with each coat allowed to dry before the next. The final coat was allowed to dry overnight before I covered the fabric and moved to my next process.

I bet I was telling her about the time her man ate some carnauba ;) You got to love PJ he is always good for a great laugh!
 
Looks like you had a great time!

Really upset I didn't make it down this year. Hopefully I can get down for next years.
 
I was really upset that I didn't get to go to Hawaii!


lol yeah Hawaii and my brother's wedding really put a dent in my wallet.

But hey look at it this way...if/when I ever move to hawaii you'll have a free place to stay! :props:

Why thank you SeeJay for the invite :laughing: I'm with Porsche Pilot, packing my bags as we speak :).
 
let me just say that - as always - it is the crew at Autogeek and the returnee buddies that make this show sooooo much fun. i really enjoy coming and as long as i am invited i will be returning. thanks for all the great pictures - Michelle is not best pleased with me that such a facial expression has been allowed out in public BUT she assures me that it was something about me that she is reacting to. > however - carnauba is gooooood... 8)

big thanks to all involved and already looking forward to next year.
 
ARRGH! Sorry PJ! Please give her my apologies. I thought it was funny. I was debating about posting that or not. It has been promptly deleted from my photo bucket account!! I can't edit the post anymore so will have to wait for the inter webs to update now.
 
she was not mad - just wanted me to verify publicly that it was due to somethnig about me and not her normal and beautiful smile 8)
 
Very good! :) I removed it all the same. Thinking back on it my wife (same name) would likely make me sleep in the garage if I posted such a wonderful photo of her... Hmmm, that might be a good thing?
