With Autogeek's Detail Fest over it's time for the next big Detailing Event!

Poorboy’s World is proud to announce our 2014 Detailing Weekend June 21th & 22th

Event to be held at our warehouse/showroom located at 210 West Nyack Road, West Nyack, NY 10994

We would like to invite on-line enthusiasts, from any site, as well as local enthusiasts.

*Please feel free to post this on any other boards / forums you frequent.

One of our goals is to put faces to the names we talk to on-line.

We use the weekend format so there is time for personal interaction and instruction.

This year again, Pockets (Chris) will begin each day with an introduction to all our products in our showroom, followed by a short class with hands on demonstrations.
Our goal is to share techniques to use Poorboy's World products with hand and machine application to their fullest extent. We will have swirled and damaged hoods to learn or practice on supplied by our neighbors at the body shop . Individuals and families are welcome, but please no pets.

Cost

A $25 per car space for one or both days, ( if you bring a second car it's $25x2 ) plus a $10 food & drink fee for passengers.

It can be paid in advance by PayPal (send payments to [email protected]), credit card, or check. Please send an email to [email protected] if you would like to pay by CC or Check.

Your $25 fee will include:

1) A reserved parking spot
2) Lunch for either or both days
3) Ice cold bottled drinking water all day
4) The full line of Poorboy’s World branded products, except microfiber towels, clay, tape,pads etc...
5) Washing station with power washer, buckets, and mitts for washing vehicles. Sorry, no brushes will be provided.
This year we will also have a sign up sheet for the washing tent
6) A few pop-up tents will be available by lottery style ..not first come first serve ..we encourage you to bring your own tent if it's going to be hot.


Checklist for Attendees
For those of you planning to attend Poorboy's World Detailing Weekend, here is a quick checklist of items that will be provided on-site as well those items you are expected to bring yourself.

Your responsibilities:

- Upon arrival, Sign in at the registration table

- Park where indicated in assigned spots

- If possible, arrive with a freshly or recently washed vehicle. While washing implements will be available on site, time would be better spent on other aspects of detailing.

- Provide your own PC, Flex and/or rotary buffer along with all necessary accessories such as electrical extension cords(50+ feet preferred), pads, bonnets, wrenches, and connectors. (*Porter Cable 7424xp and Flex 3401vrg will be available for sale)

- Provide your own masking tape, clay, applicator pads and microfiber towels. ( *Clay, Pads and towels will be available for sale at the show)

- If desired, bring your own lawn chairs and sunscreen.

- PLEASE LEAVE ALL OTHER BRAND PRODUCTS AT HOME

- At the end of the day, please clean up after yourselves.

While many of you may delight in comparing detailing products from various manufacturers, please keep in mind that this weekend is being sponsored by Poorboy's World. This is an opportunity for everyone to try Poorboy's World products and get personal hands-on help, and experience, with our line. So, it would be considered good manners to stay on topic by focusing our attention on Poorboy's World products for the duration of this event.


FAQ

Q: Is the goal to Detail Each and Every car exterior?

A: After meeting and greeting this year we will have an into to Poorboy's World products and their uses, followed by a question and answer time. We will then give a brief tour of our new facilities and move on to machine demonstrations, as well as claying and possibly wet sanding too. Everyone else who does not participate in the class and tour, will be detailing their own car. Some people will be here just for helping others...it's a great opportunity to watch other people and how they get their results. Pockets & I will be walking around and will try to help everybody we can. We would like to see everyone leaving at the end of the weekend with a shiny car, so we can take pictures and then share with the rest of the on-line communities.


There will be more information as we progress and all suggestions pertaining to the event are welcome!

We also need to know if you will be requiring a hotel room , so we can try and work out a deal with a local and convenient place.

Let us know if you have any questions or comments

Yes, it will be the same for both days. It is a chance to try all the products in the Poorboy's World Line on your vehicle for real life results and instruction from us :props:

We also don't call it a hang out weekend for nothing it's great to just get together and hang out
 
sounds good, I'll try to plan for Saturday, my daily driver is in much need of some correction, it has had nothing done to it lol this would be a great time to test out some products
 
I already missed DF. There's no way I'm going to miss this.

Just wanted to remind people that payment in advance will secure your spot for the weekend. We have limited space and will try to accommodate everybody that we can =)

Also signing up in advance tends to result in a special for those who sign up early ;) just ask those that have attended past events
 
I might come, too early to give a def answer. But I'm local so I can make a last minute decision! Im the MAN
 
Google Maps tells me I can make it in 3.5 hours, not a bad drive.

Can you give us some hotel/motel information???
 
Looks very interesting, I'm brazilian so I will not make on this one, but I wish all the best for Poorboy's and enthusiast that will join this amazing initiative.

Please, don't forget to share the pics with us.

I've never used any Poorboy's product to date, hope I can think of somethings after seeing 'what's hot' on this event.



Kind Regards.
 
Event update ... spaces are filling in

Looks like we will have a great turn out and we found out yesterday that AWD330 (Marj) who moved to Florida, is flying in for the event ...

Marj and Steve started this event in 2003 in a borrowed Chevy Dealer's lot ... just wouldn't be the same with out her.

Anyone needing a hotel for one or more nights, please give us a pm or post , so we can negotiate with the hotel.

Thanks and we are looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible

PS- ... there are special gifts for those who preregister by May 30th ;)
 
All those pre-paid by May 31 will receive a SPECIAL Goody Bag which includes discount coupons, product samples, and more!!!


Today and Tomorrow are your last days to get in on the goodies!!
