Detail Fest 2012 Photos

[CEE DOG]

Heres some photos guys. I would love to tell my story of the amazing time I had with a great bunch of friends but out of time so I made it quick. The best part of DetailFest is hanging out with some of the best people I've had the pleasure of knowing.

I have to apologize I have very few photos of the full process. Just a couple from a few parts of my preparation as I was strapped for time and barely anything at the show for the same reason. A few good ones though.


Taped off the paint before applying 3 coats of 303 HTFG with each coat allowed to dry before the next. The final coat was allowed to dry overnight before I covered the fabric and moved to my next process.

Hey Corey,

Great photos and narrations!! :props:

[thedodo]

let me just say that - as always - it is the crew at Autogeek and the returnee buddies that make this show sooooo much fun. i really enjoy coming and as long as i am invited i will be returning. thanks for all the great pictures - Michelle is not best pleased with me that such a facial expression has been allowed out in public BUT she assures me that it was something about me that she is reacting to. > however - carnauba is gooooood... 8)

big thanks to all involved and already looking forward to next year.
