I have been looking at this site for some time and have found a wealth of information.
I have a 2012 GS Corvette, 2009 Honda Accord EX-L, and 2002 Honda Accord EX-L (daughters), and 2003 GMC Envoy XL.
The 2002 Accord needs serious paint correction work but I think it can be brought back step by step. I have been studying the site getting information to attack that problem. The 2009 Accord needs a good paint correction (Dark Blue) and the Envoy (white) needs a good polishing as well
The Corvette (Torch Red) has a few very light scratches but no swirls which hopefully will be much easier to correct.
I also want to find out about how to keep the wheels clean and looking good.
A lot of work! But I am glad to be a newbie novice member of this forum so I can learn from everyone. Starting from scratch.....
Down here we basically have the late fall, winter and early spring to work before it gets scortching hot!
Oh and by the way my daughter is getting married in July 2014.
Thanks ya'll

:welcome: from a fellow Louisianian

Glad you are enjoying the site. If you are starting from scratch my best advise is to read and read and read some more, and ask a LOT of questions.

:welcome: from a former New Orleanian. Still miss my Parkway Po' Boys and my old apartment on Calhoun, uptown near the park...

Happy detailing!

Welcome! I got here about a week ago. I hang my hat in Covington, just across the longest bridge in the world from you.

Hey y'all I'm in Covington as well. I've been detailing on the side for a few years now mostly for familiy and friends. I've got a pc and Flex orbital with some different products. If anyone is interested in giving the machines a whirl let me know and we can set something up.

Congrats gmoliver on your duaghter's marriage!

Later guys.

Covington you say?
My wife's family lives there, we go from time to time, love it there.
Next time I visit there I'll keep you in mind. :dblthumb2:

Yes sir! It's a really nice area, I've been in Covington since about 1992. Do let me know next time you're in town and we'll get together. Later man!

New guy here. I live in Covington, and will be needing some help, or at least some encouragement, on detailing. Next week I fly to Kansas City to pick up a car I bought a few weeks ago. We'll drive the '99 SL500 back home over Thanksgiving.

I've always been a drive-it-through-the-carwash guy with trucks and Suburbans. Have to learn to take care of a nice car.
