Continued....


On December 2nd and 3rd, Jason and I taught a RUPES BigFoot Detailing Class here at Autogeek that was incredibly successful and also sold-out.


Here are video testimonies by people that attended that class. Watch the video and see what they have to say...

Note: The video will not display if you're using the Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Looks like a good time. Wish I lived a bit closer.

Any chance the new 19e rotary can fall in a box that just so happens to have my shipping address on it? Lol

Hmm.... if there were a chance a LHR 19E Rotary Polisher was going to leave Colorado it will probably be in my suitcase.

Because you've been to 10 classes last time I counted, you know exactly how hands-on these classes are.

Andre let me know there are only 2 more spaces left in this class.

Here's the pictures from the last class Jason and I taught together, click the link and you'll see that our classes are totally hands-on, zero to very little sitting.
