Yay! I can't wait to learn how to "properly" clean my Z.

 

Well, I am a 'Newbie' to this event and to detailing my car personaly (I usualy pay my friends with the right equipment to do it for me... )

Bring on the goodies

 

Whats up Kelly, is there still room for 1 more?

Mike D how you been? Long time no see, I still have a Tilton clutch and flywheel looking for a good home. Clearance priced!

Jason

 

Hey Jason....You're welcome at anything man! Heck, on a detail day, you're a subject matter expert!

BTW, is that Tilton Clutch suitable for F/I applications?

 

Jason! .. yea.. I still need it.. my clutch is TOTALLY TOAST.

Call me

Might still come to this

 

Hey all....after the last event, we learned that parking at my house can really only support about 15 cars, so at this point, the event is getting pretty full. If you currently are on the list and you find out that you will NOT be able to attend, please post here or let me know so that we can open the spot for someone else. Let's assume that we have room for, say 4 more cars on the list. There will always be a few folks who'll have something come up at the last minute, so we'll overbook by just a few cars. When the number hits 20, that'll close it out. We'll play the classic "Fast and the Furious" on the 94" screen again, or fire up a racing game on the PS2 or something for folks that want to get out of the sun for a bit....Hoping that since it's October it'll be a little cooler than the last one.

We'll be providing burgers, dogs, chips and soda for people too, so come hungry.

 

Looking forward to this one.

 

I have never been to a single meet since Ive had my car. So I dunno how this works, do I just show up at said address?

I can go, and I may bring 1 more with me if there is room.

 

Yep, just show up at said address (which will be posted up with directions shortly). You and your buddy are welcome to come (he has a Z also, yes?) The only thing I'd ask is that since a) parking is limited and b) Meguiars is sponsoring the event and giving products away, and c) we're providing food for people, if you find out that you can't come, PLEASE let me us know ASAP by posting here so we can open up your slot(s) for other folks. Thanks!

Yeah my buddy has a Z also, so a parking slot will have to be taken.

I wont be a jerk and just not show up, Ill let you know ahead of time man.

 

Hey Kelley, whats up? I met you at the Chik parking lot the other week (red Eclipse). Do you know where I can find some Crystal Guard around here? I know I can order it, but I don't feel like waiting.

 

Dont answer that Kelly.. save him .. stop him from the evils of Crystal Guard .. use the force..

 

Also beware of Sith Meguiar's...close your eyes and use the force of Zaino

 

Crystal Guard is actually a sponsor here on the forum, so while I don't know where you can find any locally, you can order from them direct. Here is a link to their online store (hosted at my350z.com even!)

https://my350z.com/crystalguard/shop/customer/home.php

You can also take some time in the detailing forum to see what paint care products people are using these days. There are several really good ones out there:

Zaino, a chemical based polymer product boasting 99.9% optical clarity with several different applications from swirl-remover to polish to detail spray to car wash soap. Zaino is expensive, but it's good stuff.

Meguiar's, also a chemical based polymer. Has similar applications to Zaino, but is WAY more affordable. Produces (IMO) the same results as Zaino, but is reported to not last quite as long. Meguiars products are available in many local auto-parts retail stores like Pep-boys and Advanced Auto Parts. If you don't mind applying polish a little more frequently, Meguiar's is the way to go based on results/cost.

I have NO exposure to Crystal Guard, so I can't speak on its' behalf.

If you come out to the Fall Detail Day, you'll get some free Meguiars products, as our very own Mike Delacruz (mdracer76) is sponsored by Meguiars and for the second event in a row worked his magic with his sponsor to supply goods for all the attendees. Post up in the thread if you can make it out....It should be a good time.

 

If you still have room, or if someone drops, add me in please

Yo Kelly, are we supposed to show up with our detailing kit, I mean carry car wash, wax and all other paraphernalia with us. Is meguiars going to provide stuff to detail too?

 

I'll have some goodies for you guys from Meguiars... but you can bring anything that you want. I def. would recomend that you come to kelly's with a CLEAN CAR... with this many cars .. there is no way that we can wash and detail all of them
