What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

Continuation from the other thread so we don’t derail it too bad…
I’ll find his username someday. It can’t be impossible to find, heck it took less than 5min. to find the both of you from 20yrs. ago!lol.

Wow, the old Piscataway GTG, the first and only of its kind I’ve ever been to. I would’ve thought for sure other detailing nuts only exist in cyber land

A get together of detailing nuts held at PAL Automotive in PIscataway, NJ hosted by Rod Kraft then with Meguiar's I brought some fenders for him to demonstrate the rotary on.

I recall that name, Rod Kraft.
It’s crazy the simple yet interesting feeling that just looking at those thread titles from 20yrs. ago brings. Detailing was alot more simple back then yet super interesting. I would spend hours & hours reading all that stuff. I was the king of lurk. Lol

Rod is an excellent instructor. It was a pleasure learning from him. I used to read constantly absorbing everything I could. Learning is still my primary motivator for being on the forums.

Rod Kraft was a Kevin Brown kind of figure right?

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Wow, I didn't realize that was in 2004, I thought maybe the year after. That was the only time Bill and I met IRL, before he abandoned the rest of us in Jersey to go to Florida.
Rod Kraft works for Griot's now, if you guys didn't get the memo. I guess he still lives in MD, back in 2004 and for a long time after he was the Atlantic states Meg's rep.
For the youngsters, back in 2004 there were hardly any pictures on the forums, let alone video, so an in-person training class taught by a Meg's rep and hosted by a detail supply shop was one of the only ways to really understand machine polishing.
EDIT: Here's the thread: Open Detailing Class August 21st, - Piscataway, New Jersey - Car Care Forums: Meguiar's Online
I forgot Beercan was at that, I met him a couple other times at Poorboy's when he was still up here. And of course JChetty, I wonder what ever happened to him? He was a wildman with that Civic(?) of his, cleaning the doorjambs, etc. A few other familiar names, onawrxhigh, Lost Pup..and n1976jmk floated back in here or to Autopia a few years ago.
