Overcome your fear of machine polishing - Cars & Coffee Class #1
At each Cars & Coffee there will be a short detailing class sharing tips and techniques on the topic of car detailing. The classes will start at approximately 8:15 and run till about 8:45, so they are short but filled with tips you can use instantly.

So at this first class I will share with you all the different types of modern buffers and polishers and then demonstrate the tools that are both safe and easy to use.
These modern safe tools will enable you to maintain your car's finish faster than working by hand with much better results compared to working by hand.
Hope to see you in my class!
