VIP Guest Marco D'Inca from Rupes at Autogeek's Detailing Boot Camp Class (http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/ask-expert-featuring-mike-phillips/69635-vip-guest-marco-d-inca-rupes-autogeek-s-detailing-boot-camp-class.html)


My next class is coming up on September 28th & 29th and in all my classes we have a dedicated car project for each type of tool I cover in the class.

At my last class for the Rupes Polishers we used a 1987 Buick Grand National and we also had two very special VIP guests from Rupes, Marco D'Inca and Andreas, both were here to attend my two-day class.

There were so many pictures taken at this class because we worked 5 different vehicles to cover all the topics we teach that it's hard to go through them all and then get all the pictures into the pictures and comments thread. I'm still working on it though...

Here's a few pictures from that class and if you look around you can see both Marcos and Andreas joining in the fun...

It was a real pleasure and an honor to have Marco and Andreas attend one of our classes and I hope they had as much fun as the rest of the class working on some pretty cool cars...

That's pretty awesome. It would be cool talking to the lead engineer himself about my rupes!

Marco is very nice and smart. It was fun having him and Andreas in my class.

I think they really enjoyed how much hands-on time everyone gets plus the cool cars.

Nice big turn out

Nice big turn out


And always with great people ready to learn new both the basics and advanced techniques. Marco was also here when we wetsanded the Patrol Car. This was very unique as I took a team of people that for the most part had never wetsanded anything nor used rotary buffers and they sanded this car down TWICE without ever sanding through the clear coat and then buffed it out using rotary buffers TWICE without ever burning through the clear coat. And... on a classic car... and they did a great job.

I can't actually think of a class I've ever had that had a small turn-out dating back to when I first started teaching classes on primarily the art of polishing paint but also detailing in general.

Haven't seen you around much Adam...
