    1962 Buick Invicta - Training Car for the May Competition Ready 3-Day Detailing Classes

    1962 Buick Invicta - Training Car for the May Competition Ready 3-Day Detailing Classes



    Here's the last car for this weekend's car. This is a resto-rod 1962 Buick Invicta that belongs to my good friend Richard. Richard let us use his black 1940 Ford streetrod at my January class. He trusts Autogeek with all his cars.


    When this car arrived one of my friends looked at it and said it looked so nice. I thought it did to and for that reason I wasn't going to use it for the class. It was cloudy out and when the clouds block the sun the paint looked PERFECT!

    I said... wait for it... and then... the clouds moved out of the way and the sun lit up the paint and guess what we discovered?


    Holograms

    See the lines that look holographic in the paint?







    Here's a closer shot - these are holograms.
    Richard bought this car at the Mecum Auction in Kissimmee and this is the way the paint was when he bought it.





    Swirls with some holograms trailing to the right side of the sun burst....






    Here's some shots of the holograms the day of the class. Notice all the other cool cars in the background? This was taken on the first day of the class, Friday, May 6th, 2016















    Beautiful car and when my class gets done it will be perfect.

    About our classes...


    On Friday, we bring in cool cars. You learn how to use all the tools, not just one brand but all the brands and all the tools in the brand. Friday is all about learning what I call,

    The art of polishing paint


    I explain why it's an art forum in the introduction to my how-to book,

    The Complete Guide to a Show Car Shine


    So if you have the book, read the intro, you'll see what I have to say about paint polishing being an art form.



    Saturday is where you learn all about "Production Car Detailing" and this is where I bring in modern daily drivers. I also cover engine detailing removing scratches out of windshields, headlight restoration, the aggressive method to washing a car and tons of other topics.


    Sunday is learning the art of wet sanding. You learn both hand sanding techniques and machine sanding techniques as well as how to use a rotary buffer. You also will get to use hot water extractors, Tornador tools and Dupray Steam Cleaners plus a lifetime of techniques for detailing ever inch, inside and out of a car, truck or suv.




    All my classes always fill up. Here's a tip... the September class fills up the fastest.


    Limited Space
    This class will fill up and sell out but there are still spaces available as of today. To reserve your space to attend this class you can do either of the below.

    Exclusive
    There are no other full on, hands-on classes like the classes I teach and have been teaching and documenting longer than anyone still breathing today.


    Unique
    Each class is different because we always have different cars, new tools just introduced to the market and new products just introduced to the market. Don't miss out on this class.


    See you in September!
