DFW Meguiars open garage

Okay folks, if you think you would be availible to do an open garage sometime, somewhere in the DFW area, please sign in here (ie: post that you're potentially in). I am going to try to get Mike from MOL to come over to DFW since it is a fairly large area with lots of members locally, so if you are willing to make the drive over here, please post so.

Once I have at least 10 people, I will put in an email to MPhillips. I will keep you updated.

Thanks!!!

(oh, I am in, BTW, so there's 1)
(RollingRock would doubtless come, so there's 2)
(quicktsi said he's in, so there's 3)
(Attworth would prolly come, so 4)
(Brian5.4 prolly would come, so 5)
(Sleestak would likely drop by, so 6)
...the list grows...

They send Mike Phillips or another Meguiars guru to a place and everybody gets hands on experience with all sorts of products, techniques, etc. Basically, its a one night (or if he's here for awhile, maybe more....) deal in which people get to try stuff out with professional help.

Can we put you on the possible list?

Do they not allow any public tours?

To the best of my knowledge, no. Ive been working on it off and on for about a year and have gotten no where. In fact, I think ive lost ground from where ive started. Although if I get lucky, Im gonna tour the Optimum plant tomm

Ryan, I say good luck with this....but if you are looking for a workshop, try contacting Steve Pasztor over at Tropi-Care, they hold "how too's" QTR'ly, possibly monthly pending demand.


I'd go to a Megs class even though I don't use many of the products...and if you haven't tried contacting Tony over at Wash Solutions to help you I think you may be in for a tough case to get them there. Wash Solutions has the bays and product to do this for sure being the largest Megs dealer in town...

Darn it, my time for posting has expired.
