With the birth of this new Detailing Forum ( thanks AG ) I'm curious as to everyone's opinions when it comes to detailing. As this Forum grows it will become a melting pot of people with various backgrounds & experience. Pros, semi pros, enthusiasts, weekend warriors & first timers ( just to name a few ) will all flock to this community to seek/exchange information, teach, motivate, inspire & inform each other. So my question is this..........
Deatailing: Pleasure or Pain???????????
As for me, my first detailing experience started back in the mid 80's. Back then , I was driving a black 1986 Iroc-Z28. It was my first sports car. A real "chick magnet". Looking back, I cringe when I think about how I used to care for the exterior. You know.....Going to the "do it yourself" car wash & SCRUBBING THE HECK OUT OF IT WITH THAT SCRUB BRUSH. ( ouch!) One day, my friend came to me & said his girl friend really loves my car & wants to wax it for me. ( wax? what's wax? ) So I did what all teenagers did back then. Washed my "roc" & drove it to the beach so everyone else could look at it. (lol) My friend shows up with his girl friend. ( in his yellow formula firebird ) She bounces out of his car in a white,skimpy & I mean SKIMPY, bikini. I'm still not sure what was hotter that day. The weather, my "roc" or her in that skimpy bikini! (lol) My friend turns to me and says......"stand back & enjoy the show". (lol) So I did!! (lol) It was the best day ever! (lol) She caked my car with "Rally Cream Wax" & twisted & bent her little body in all sorts of ways as she "waxed & buffed" my car. She put on quite a show that day! When she was done, my "roc" looked pretty darn good. I was hooked! From that day on, I became interested in detailing. 20 years later, detailing for me has evolved into a pure passion! I love to detail. I find it a relaxing & quite enjoyable process. I've since developed a "detailing product fetish". Just love quality detailing products. You name it, I've used it......just about. People laugh at the size of my ever expanding detailing arsenal. It's massive. But I truely love it!!! So to me.............Detailing is a PLEASURE!!:D
