Can't get to Stuart, Florida to attend one of our classes? Then do the next best thing and watch from your computer. Live Broadcast starts at 8:00am and goes to approximately 5:00pm BOTH DAYS Eastern Standard Time. We're going to enable a select few to watch the live broadcast, and then request some feedback. If you're interested, here's your chance to sit in on our Detailing 101 and 102 classes.
SPACES ARE LIMITED so if you are interested please respond to this thread and we will select a couple of you next week!
The first class covers machine polishing and the proper steps on how to remove swirls, apply wax by machine, surface evaluation, and more!

If you've ever wanted to learn more about machine polishing, this is a good way to learn if you can't get a plane ticket, hotel and rental car to Stuart...
Before and After - What you learn to do in our Detailing 101 Class
Below are some pictures showing what you will learn how to do at Autogeek's Detailing 101 Classes...
You can use the skill you learn to restore a show car finish on your own cars or start a part time detailing business and earn a few dollars restoring a show car finish for fellow car enthusiasts...
Here's our demo car, Rob's 2006 Mustang GT Convertible
![](http://www.autogeekonline.net/gallery/data/742/Horrendous000.jpg)
Rob purchased this from a local dealership withe the DISO already installed at no extra charge.
DISO = Dealer Installed Swirl Option
Here's a few shots taken in the sun. Note how the swirls in the paint closest to the windshield have an almost floating or 3D effect, this is where the term hologram comes from in the context of talking about swirls instilled by a rotary buffer.

Here's a section of the above photo cropped out and in full size...
![](http://www.autogeekonline.net/gallery/data/742/Horrendous011.jpg)
Mustangs are beautiful cars but not when the paint shimmers with swirls... the paint is supposed to shimmer with shine....
![](http://www.autogeekonline.net/gallery/data/742/Horrendous002.jpg)
Here's the same car but now were use the flash from our camera to reveal the horrendous swirls...
![](http://www.autogeekonline.net/gallery/data/742/Horrendous003.jpg)
I don't think I've ever seen a car so swirled out by the mis-use of a rotary buffer...
![](http://www.autogeekonline.net/gallery/data/742/Horrendous004.jpg)
![](http://www.autogeekonline.net/gallery/data/742/Horrendous005.jpg)
The zillions of swirls in the clear layer make the paint look hazy and blocks your view of the black paint under the clear top coat.
![](http://www.autogeekonline.net/gallery/data/742/Horrendous006.jpg)
In this shot we've actually only buffed out just the passenger side of the hood... after getting some before and after shots we then buffed out the driver's side.

Here are the end results...
