A couple of things about my detailing boot camp classes...
1. I never know exaxtly what cars I'll have here for my class to work on and train on but historically I always have an incredible selection of classics and streetrods and each one has unique problems that we will use as a learning vehicle for specific tools.
For example, at my last class here are the cars everyone was able to work on....
Show Car Detailing using Porter Cable, Meguiar's and Griot's Dual Action Polishers
Here's a few pictures of the action!
Started out with Charlie's swirled-out Dodge Ram Truck. This truck was painted back in November and then hacked-up with the misuse of a rotary buffer.
The first class of Saturday morning was focused on how to use basic dual action polishers like the Porter Cable 7424XP the Meguiar's G110v2 the Griot's Garage DA Polisher as well as the Cyclo Polisher.
My class also learned how to use the Nanonskin Autoscrub Pads to mechanically decontaminate this truck before starting.
Here's what this truck looked like before....
