Hey OCD NAMers, just letting you know that I will be in Stuart Florida this weekend for Detailfest.

I'll be there representing Black Wow and doing demos.

My session is to run at about 2 or 2:30pm.

Fortunately for me I got a fun little rental car...a Saturn Sky. Wasn't a MINI but still better than a Dodge Neon or Chevy Malibu, lol.

Yes!!!!

It's a growing event put on my Autogeek aka Palm Beach Motoring in Florida where manufactures get to meet customers face to face..There was a car show, classes from Meguiar's, and just a great time for detailers and enthusiasts to get together and party for a couple of days, lol.

I couldn't attend last year because of timing conflicts with AMVIV.

Hey Richard...speaking of BW, I've been noticing that the "egg-crate" grille on my MCS was looking a little dull. So this weekend Black WOW'ed it and the grille looks almost like new. I used a a drop or two (it didn't take much) on a cotton wash cloth over the blade of a screwdriver to work the BW between the openings in the grille. It was a little tedious but went fairly quickly and the BW did the job.

Thanks..Bob

Thanks..I'm sure there is something that will work better and the next time I do this I'll try to find it...perhaps one of those small sponge tipped paint brushes? The screw driver and wash cloth was handy.
