    MIKE PHILLIPS
    Mike Phillips is a machine. He must be. No human can possibly keep up with this guy. Although his official title is Meguiar's Internet Technical Specialist, he does so much more than his title implies. If you're an avid internet forum reader (as am I), you already know of Mike and his incredible depth of knowledge.
    Recently I talked to him for 15 minutes on the phone. I thought to myself, "I'd better get off the phone now, because Mike is so busy, and I've already had him on the phone for - Eek! Four minutes!" That's right, Mike was able to fit 15 minutes of chit-chat into a four minute segment. Now that's efficiency!

    I have been detailing professionally for 20 years. I know a good detailer when I see one. Without question,
    Mike Phillips is in the top one percent of all detailers in the world.

    You will be BLOWN AWAY by the 'Encyclopedia of Car Care Knowledge Formerly Known as Mike'!


    MARK WILLIE
    Mark Willie is an international type of guy. As a sales rep for Mirka Abrasives he's trained people in Finland, Mexico, and many other exotic locations (and you thought only movie stars lived such a magical life!).
    For the past two years, Mark has been an integral part of our Meguiar's Booth at the Goodguy's West Coast Nationals. Mark is cool under pressure, and understands that most enthusiasts are very nervous wetsanding for the first time. We've invited him to the Inaugural NXTti to calm your fears.
    Together, Mark and I have sold well over 100 Mirka Fast Finish Kits, not to mention a countless amount of Meguiar's cleaners, polishes, and waxes. Mark has always been available to answer follow-up questions, and he'll be available to you, too.

    Mark Willie? Or won't he? That is the question. For the answer, come to the NXTti!

          I hope you will think about holding these work shops in other parts of the country. I would be very interested in just such a work shop . Perhaps a country wide tour is in order.
          Success is based on the quality of the job done !

            Hi Rollman,

            Welcome to Meguiar's Online!


            Now there's an idea... taking our workshop on the road.... Funny how with enough time, everything comes around full circle. Kind of like wise saying in the book of Ecclesiastes,

            *************

            Ecclesiastes 1:9-11

            The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

            *************

            In 1989, Meguiar's started a Mobile Training Program. We had our first Mobile Training Center Truck painted in Springfield, Oregon. Because I was the Outside Sales Rep in Oregon, I was the first person to conduct a "Training Clinic”at Industrial Finishes in the brand new truck, the day after it left the paint booth.

            Now, 15 years later, we have come full circle.

            The Special Events Trucks started out as Mobile Training Centers. They evolved into trucks that cater to car shows because of the strong interest and demand in Meguiar’s products and information. Now 15 years later we have what appears to be a demand for professional training by Meguiar's, a company that for over 100 years has strived to educate people on proper surface care procedures.

            It is so interesting how things play out...

                Hi David,

                First of all, welcome to Meguiar's Online!

                I'm sorry to have to tell you and everyone else signed up for this event, (or thinking about attending), that the NXT Tech Institute workshop scheduled for June 26th is cancelled due to conflicting schedules.

                It is being rescheduled for another date possibly in September.

                We apologize for the cancellation, and hope to confirm a new date as soon as possible.

                      Hey Mike, I'm actually up to date. Iemailed Kevin Brown yesterday, and spoke with him last night... The September date is what works for me. Kevin is still unclear about a 'headquarters' hotel... plans are still developing. So I'm standing by.

                      If you promise to bring Lynn, I'll get dinner.

                        I might work on making it to the September date. I have to see how my vacation time plays out.

                        As the light changed from red to green to yellow and back to red again, I sat there thinking about life. Was it nothing more than a bunch of honking and yelling? Sometimes it seemed that way.

                          We need one one the East Coast or I'll really have to work my butt off for the funds to fly too Cali. The hardest part is getting to go to Cali without the Wife as she would love to see Cali. Then that will get real expensive.

                            What? Are you saying by myself I'm not worth dinner?



                            I'll see if her schedule is clear...
