    Just wanted to say that I had a great time and I'm looking forward to going to the advanced class. Not only was the class informative but it helped me determine what kind of system I need to have to replicate the great results I saw in class this morning. It's great to know that there are companies out there that are willing to invest in the local community at their own expense. I will definitely show up in the future for the Thursday sessions as well as spread the word to anyone that's interested.

    Special thanks to SCC Audi for organizing the event.

        Thanks to Meguiars's for putting this on. Before this class I would have never considered using a DA polisher. I would have thought that the paint was a goner and that an expensive paint job would be required. I'm looking at paint in whole new way I, and I now understand how to use the products. This is going to take in a whole new direction for car care.

        I can also see that all the answers to ANY question are on this forum.

        Thanks to Mike and Mike for the obivous dedication they have to helping the customers and informing the public how to solve most of their paint issues.

        What a great way to spend a Sat Morning!!!!!

            What a great class.. the two most surprising things I learned was the amount of "passion" that's supposed to be put behind the pad with ScratchX (I would call it "agression" more than passion), and also the ease at which M105 worked. I'm definitely sold on M105.

              The Two Mikes (TTM) are awesome, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, passionate and informative! Great day, great information, great people, great cars and a great Company; what else could you ask for?

              Thanks Audi Club for working with Meguiar's to make it all happen!




              **Only thing missing? Would like to have been able to purchase some of the products that we discussed while at the demo- Understand your position of not wanting to make these gatherings a "sales pitch" program, but I think many people that attend would appreciate being able to purchase hands-on products from the source and not have to search down a PBE, Retailer, or order online and wait for delivery. I hope that Meguiar's will reconsider this position in the future.**

              Thoughts anyone?

                Had a great time myself.

                Just got off the phone with Mike (not Phillip's) who was VERY helpful in taking my order and helping me get the 'right stuff'.

                Thanks again to both Mikes for a very helpful class.

                  That's what I put on the feedback form as well. I would have liked the opportunity to buy some of the stuff I needed right on the spot. But I also thought about the "infomercial" aspect of this practice, and can understand the decision to refrain from selling stuff at the Saturday classes. Perhaps just providing the option to buy the products, but insisting that the class is not intended as a sales outlet. Nevertheless, I called "the other Mike" at customer care today and he took care of my order, no fuss, no muss. This is turning out to be one of the best forums I have ever seen in all my years.

                    Class was very helpful, thank you for welcoming our group. I realized that detailing products are to car guys what hair products are to women: there's several steps to the desired result, a bounty of products from which to choose, and something for everyone's lifestyle! It was great to try out the products and different ways of applying. Love the clay, quick detailer and 105.
                    Every year near the anniversary of buying my car (this week), I do something special for it and taking this class was the best gift yet. Thanks again.

                      Great analogy Melissa! You guys (and gal) were great fun to work with and all of us here at Meguiar's are glad you made time to come on down for the day.
