I would like to learn more about detailing because I need to know proper applications and pad uses for the different types of products available on the market.....

I know you have a forum and its a great learning tool but having a hard copy is nice also...

Thanks

 

Would like the book because MIke is so knowledgeable and it would be nice to have all this detailing information in one, easily accessible place.

I have always been into keeping my cars clean and entering into car shows but living in Missouri it is hard to with all the different weather changes that we experience through out a year. I try to keep the paint clean and covered with the proper waxes and cleaners but you never know 100% of anything. I think the information from an expert would be a great addition for my vehicles.

 

Going beyond clay bar/wash/wax would be a plus. I'm always looking for ways/techniques to have my truck look better

 

Because I want a free book? :o

Seriously though, have too many cars (the newest one an 03) who have to suffer from the elements, and I need all the help I can get, on how to keep them looking good better/more efficiently/with less effort.

 

I suck at detailing! Sure could use some help.

 

id like to learn cuz i have an 04 tahoe and o4 f250 that both could you a good detail but paying someone to do each is way too expensve

 

I would like to learn more about detailing because its something both of my vehicles need and taking care of cars is something im passionate about. I feel confidant in taking care of them mechanically i just need help and direction in the exterior and interior of my vehicles.

 

Because my wifes truck looks horrible and she is not happy.

 

I want to learn more about detailing! Detailing is more than just washing or putting on a coat of wax. Detailing is thoroughly cleaning, removing contaminates, swirls, scratches, stains, oxidation and other imperfections from automotive paint to produce a show-quality level of finish.

 

i would like to get a better grasp on the techniques involved

 

Mike is a pretty sharp guy... I've worked with him at Meguiar's and have actually met his family/kids at their house.

It's weird to see him in a Pinnacle shirt...

 

His book could be a good reference for me, I have a hard time remembering what color pad does what
