Well, I guess the first obstacle would be choosing a city. I am in North Florida and the others in South and Central. Orlando is always a great spot...right in the middle. Maybe a local Porsche shop would like to play host, space wise.

I like Orlando LOL...Maybe we could get a couple of the local Porsche Clubs interested. Our region here and the Space Coast are very active. I have just become active, so don't yet know too many people, but will see what interest I can find. I bet a specific post for interest would be a good start.

A local Porsche dealer, I have contacts at Brumos although their northern FL, might work. The PCA idea is great too.

Brumos is my "local" dealer and I am a member of the PCA in the region...Florida Crown. If Orlando doesnt work Jacksonville might. I have been trying for months to set up a mini detailing class for the members put on by my company. So far it hasnt worked out...no call back at least. Maybe Moe's elite status would work.

I'll see what I can do. We should come up with a plan B just in case. If there's enough interest, we can do two events that'll cover north and south FL.

Application methodology is as important as the product itself. Either, product or application process; if incorrectly chosen has the potential to damage the material it’s applied to.

Very well said !!

I lurk on here a bit, but first time I have been so inclined to post. I really wish I would have jumped on something like this a few months ago. I got suckered into a "detailing school" which promised the world but delivered nothing. I did not learn a thing, biggest waste of money I have ever spent. Trust me, $125 is not a lot to learn from a proven pro like this. I spent many times more than that on what proved to be a total gimmick. Learn from my mistake, go with a reputable professional if you want to learn to detail.
