Here's the info again:

The date will be Saturday, April 3rd. We'll all meet at Bickfords on Hazard Ave in Enfield, CT at 11:00ish; cruise north for lunch at Hooters and then to the class for 1:30 at C.A.R. Products in Holyoke, MA.
The class cost is $35 each (cash or check only); pay instructor when we get there.
He'll do a refresher from last year and then a lot of hands on sanding, clay bar, buffing, etc.
He'll have some tools there, but said those who have their own buffers should bring them, with some pads, to get use to their own tools.

The list, so far:

TWILL (Tom) +1 guest
DROPTOP (Mike)
CTYANK2 (John)
BASICSTRATEGY777 (Nino)
02REDRIDER (Marcel)
HRDTOPC54FUN (Dave)

Since HRDTOPC54FUN is attending, I will volunteer my car for the purpose of ending up looking like his. It will be good for his to be there for comparison purposes......(night & day)

Sounds good. Does he provide anything like clay bars, polish, compounds etc. or do we need to bring all that as well as the buffers if we have them?

John;

Not to answer for Dave but last year the instructor provided the materials for the demo / training. This is a car detailing products / services outlet and they do sell products.

Their was no hard sell last year but products were available for purchase.

I don't remember any clay bar being used. Lot's of polishing and buffing compound and lot's of questions from "Mr. 777"!

Looking forward to Hooters and seeing you all on a spectacular day!!!

No more questions............I have found the panacea ; the Italian clay bar ( 0000 steel wool and olive oil ).
