Interest in a detailing clinic

Hey gang,

Just looking to see if there would be any interest in a detailing clinic this fall. Let me know, and we can see about setting something up. Also post what you would like to see covered. At the spring clinic, we covered basic washing, and working with a PC to apply polishes and waxes. We could cover interior, wheels, winter washing, rag top care, etc.

Let me know by posting to this thread.

Mark

We're interested, but our free time is basically full for this fall. We'll still give our choices for topics, though: interior and cabrio top care. BTW, the tip you gave me for cleaning under the hood (bonnet) works great.

Thanks Mark We will be needing a place to hold it, and your place is perfect. I will get a hold of you soon to work things out. I figure a Sunday sometime in late October.

Sure

What I'm thinking is things other than exterior paint. We covered that in the spring clinic. That's not to say we can't discuss all things about keeping our MINIs looking their best.

I am interested, time permitting.

+1 on engine cleaning. Also interested in tips on what works best for the black plastic trim pieces (wheel arches, etc). I already use a PC (but not to apply anything) and I use Zaino for finish/protectant.

I'm now thinking mid-November to hold the clinic. Anyone got thoughts on that?

Seems that there is not enough interest for a fall detailing clinic, but I will ask about one at the club meeting on Monday.

Sorry folks, I've got some personal things going on right now, so going to have to do this sometime in June, probably around the middle of the month. I'll post when/where soon.
