Hey Agians! had a wonderful one-on-one aircraft detailing class this weekend. Had Ben Thompson come up from Orlando, Florida with the ambition to start his own aircraft detailing company and I feel the class went great! Here are some pics of the Nacelle that we did together...... I have no befores but still have to post the pics. He is actually a big time lurker in the AG forum and has extensive knowledge in chemistry of products - so his product knowledge is an awesome foundation for him to get started. It was great to teach him and hear that he lurks around this forum looking for advice and knowledge! This forum is awesome and I wouldn't be where I am today without it! Thanks AG! Cant wait for our BIG class in Feb!

Thanks Dave! Teaching is taxing (I feel for Mike Phillips now!) - but when it's your passion its not that bad for a gig :rolleyes:. Hope you've been well man - I'll give you a call soon :dblthumb2:

I do a lot of teaching and know it can be tough accessing your experience on the spot, delivering the message effectively then demonstrating technique.

It's not too bad on a down day but when you're trying to teach and meet strict deadlines it seems impossible.

Things been a bit rough up here lately to be honest but I'm working through it the best I can.

As always...call anytime. :-)

Do you plan on having any auto detailing classes?

No sir - that is a Mike Phillips specialty :props:..... I've been detailing aircraft so long and have been told there were no truly knowledgeable aircraft detailers offering classes.... so I took the leap, and so far its been great :dblthumb2:. There are plenty of knowledgable auto detailing teachers, and Mike is definitely top notch in the auto industry :buffing:
