Hi,

I bought Mike Phillips "Complete Guide to a Show Car Shine" I-book and found my way here. I am just a hobbyist and want to learn how to get a show car shine on my 2011 Camaro. It is Imperial Blue Metallic (Dark Blue), and is a challenge for me. I've never used an electric polisher even though I have three of them. I am hoping to learn from all of you. If I get half the shine I've seen in the example posted here, I will be a happy polisher! If yo are ever in Northern Illinois, drop me a line.

Thank you.

Welcome from Addison, IL ! I also have the two books from Mike.

If you'd like to learn more and get to know some of us Chicago folks come to our May 18th detail fest that we are hosting in Woodstock. There will be a chance to win prizes too!

Welcome to AG..."I've never used an electric buffer", come to our detail day on May 18th and you'll leave full of confindence, trust me! Good place to check out how to use products and machines, rinseless washes and meet and greet fellow Geeks, plus get some goodies! We'd love to have you out, check out our threads for it and there's one where you add your name to the list if you can make it out.
