      I'm kind of scanning it now. Seems like a great book. Will certainly be putting this on my phone as well so it can be wherever I am.

        Ehh... what does Mike know...

        I think there was going to be a book several years ago... I wonder if this is a new project, or updated, etc. Cant wait for a hard copy, will certainly check that out.

              I highly recommend the book. I'm constantly learning and this is a great tool. I've learned some things already and will keep reading and learning.

                Just to note, I make it a practice to give due credit where credit is due. That is I don't ever use someone else's work without giving them credit. I do this with Mike Pennington on Page 89 but the associated picture was left out... (dang, it was a good picture).

                My reference to Barry Meguiar's coining the term scratch-sensitive in the early 1990's didn't make it through editing but for the record in the un-edited version I did give him credit. (I didn't edit the book).

                I also included multiple forum members and gave them credit for their tips as well as credited Meguiar's for teaching the philosophy,

                "Use the least aggressive product to get the job done"

                There's also a section on the Meguiar's Microfiber DA Correction system. This is a shot of the e-book on an iPad...



                I'll have the printed version at SEMA with a copy for Mike Pennington who has taught me a lot over the years...

                  What about signed copies?

                    Of course.

                    I just found out the paperback version is supposed to be in our warehouse tomorrow.

                      Now, I have to figure out how I'm going to get to SEMA so I can get a signed copy. Wish I lived a little closer, well actually a lot closer to Vegas.

                          Sean,

                          it looks like you don't need to go to Vegas to get your book signed by Mike:

                              VMP is speechless. Don't blame him, download just the sample e-book and the index is pretty impressive.
