I agree that this car-care forum is one of the finest. I'm glad to be a member. Glad you're a member too...Thanks for joining!
I also enjoy "checking in"....reading/responding to members postings. There's always advice readily...and unselfishly... given in the most informative, professional, and friendly manner.
The AGO forum also offers its members an often unheard of opportunity to solicit the advice of a world-renowned Professional: Mr. Mike Phillips!....
As for vehicle care and AGO forum/members.....

…and thank YOU for joining…
One of the first things I do, when I log into my computer at work, is check my bank account and then open up AGO. Its nice to know that there will always be something interesting to read in the morning.
I agree with you whole-heartedly about Mike. He’s an incredible asset to the AG staff.
Wait? There are other detailing forums besides AGO? Glad I started here! Being a member of several online forums AGO is definitely one of the best out there!

LOL I know right?! The only other forum I’m a member of is acurazine.com. But as far as participation and talking about detailing…this is it for me buddy. I love it here.
Your very welcome Alex! I'm so happy for you that you've had the oppurtunity to interact with ME!! Maybe one day if your really lucky, we'll meet in person!!! It's been really nice getting to know you as well!!!!
Flash…you’re definitely someone I look forward to seeing on the forum. You always keep me laughing. I’ve even mentioned you to my fiancé a bunch of times. Every now and then she’ll ask “whats up with Flash?...how’s he doing?”
I have a feeling we will meet…me and my fiancé are thinking about going down there for Memphis In May. I’ll keep you posted.
We actually did this at my daughters wedding in early September. Had a relative who had been really good to the kids who had just had a stem cell transplant and was stil in isolation so could not travel. Did it over Skype and it worked well , couple other people logged in and it was nice to share with relatives that could not travel to opposites sides of the US. Might want to think about if you have situations where someone could benefit from it.
Back on topic, I could not agrre with you more, some sites you get more scolding than advice especially when you are a hobbyist and only do 20 or 30 cars a years. IMO everyone adds to the collective knowledge base here.
Ya’ll actually have me thinking about doing a webcast of our wedding. That would be pretty cool. I have family in S. Korea that would probably like to “attend.”
I know what you mean, in regards to other forums. Its like they thing they’re better than others and look down on you. That’s why I love AGO…all of us, at one point, were complete strangers. Granted, some of ya’ll have actually met in person, but we’re definitely “friends” in an online sense. I hope to meet some of you guys and gals one day.
I am blushing now and so are my nicely detailed cars. My wallet, well thats another story!
Hey hey hey…easy now Bacon…I don’t want to be known the one who made another grown man blush. LOL! J/K man...
It's all good man we would not like to add any more expense to your wedding!
Have you been able to do some cars yet? You can always offer basic 50 dollar washes and waxes. Once people see your work and your car as an example of no swirls they might go for it. This is also the season where it starts to rain or snow and many people think that they should wax their cars during summer only, but they don't know that you should protect them during winter as well.
Not yet…the one person who I was supposed to detail their car about a month ago keeps making excuses. As far as others go, I need to come up with better basic packages. But yeah I’m definitely going to come up with something. I’m actually surprised to hear a lot of people closing shop for the winter. I thought winter would be a great time to make money, that is if you can do ONR washes in the garage.
Alex...That is/was a nice thing to say!
A true gentleman in my eyes.

Thanks Bill!! I appreciate it. Its always a pleasure to interact with people such as yourself.
