Pictures & Comments September 2018 3-Day Detailing Class at Autogeek with Mike Phillips (https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/pictures-from-autogeeks-3-day-detailing-classes-with-mike-phillips/121458-pictures-comments-september-2018-3-day-detailing-class-autogeek-mike-phillips.html)


Sorry it's taken me so long to get to these pictures, with the Roadshow Classes plus all my other job duties here at Autogeek it has become incredibely difficult to go through all the pictures taken at ANY class and them make them magically appear on our forum. It's not like Facebook where anyone with a phone and a thumb can upload a picture. There's a minimum of 6 time consuming steps to do before a picture can actually be inserted like you see below.


Here's the graduating students for the September 2018 3-Day Class here at Autogeek

Mike,

Just wanted to take the time again to say thank you. I'm really glad I decided to take this class. Well worth the money spent. The amount of knowledge you presented us with was incredible. The car line up was great and it was a lot of fun working on each of them.

If anyone is on the fence about taking this class do not hesitate. Mike goes over and beyond to make sure from the time you walk in, until the time you leave, that you are hands on all day. Learning on some of the coolest cars you can find. He puts a lot of preparations and detail into this class and it shows. So many different tools and products you get to use and familiarize yourself with. I would recommend this class to everyone who loves to details cars.

Hi Billy,

Thank you for attending our 3-Day Detailing class here at Autogeek in Stuart, Florida.

As you found out, our classes always have the coolest cars to learn on and there is virtually zero sitting time.

You get tons of hands-on time with all the coolest and popular tools, pads and products on the market. The 3-days are all fast-paced and all hands-on!

Thank you also for the kind words, I do my best to make sure everyone gets the Autogeek 5-Star Treatment and my assistant Andre also goes above and beyond the call of duty helping out with the class and answering everyone's questions.

Mike,

Good Morning, I just wanted to take the time to say thank you again for taking time out of your busy schedule to do a 3 day class teaching us your wealth of knowledge. I had a wonderful time and gained an immense amount of information.

The money I spent was well justified, the detail and depth of your course was impeccable. You can really tell you like spending the time to show others how to quickly and properly detail a vehicle from start to finish. You, Andre and Autogeek have done an amazing job with this course. I can't thank you enough!


Thank you!!!

Billy





Thank you Billy for attending and sharing your experience from our 3-day class.

Apologies for never getting the pictures added to this thread. A monkey can put a picture on Facebook or Instagram - but it takes both TIME and KNOWLEDGE to make pictures magically show up in a linear manner on a discussion forum.

AND - after the class is over, I do IDA SV testing the following Monday, then I get a day off and by the time I come back to work a week has gone buy and I'm behind in all areas of responsibilities. So the first thing to go is the "time" to go through the pictures, pick out shots that are in focus and tell a story, process them, (crop out the fluff and resize), and then upload, insert and add some words.

This is so time consuming and it seems no one cares. :dunno:


A student from this class asked for pictures from the wetsanding class. Here's what I could find,

Find one other "class" on planet Earth where the owners of cool cars like this 1966 GTO let complete strangers wetsand it? Consider it a challenge.

Find just ONE class that does this? And also photo documents it. :laughing:

Here's some pictures Andre took...


In these first few pictures, this was AFTER the class hand sanded and then machine sanded the GTO and then after I did a demon on the hood on how to correctly use a rotary buffer.

No sanding marks. No holograms. Just perfect paint.

Same goes for the T-bird

This was another great class. Great people, great cars and amazing results.


And in the normal Mike Phillips style,

ALL HANDS ON. NO CHAIRS
