Detailfest and detail classes

[Harsh]

What is the difference between the 101 102 classes and detailfest?

[Flash Gordon]

102 is an advanced class that includes hands on training with wetsanding and finishing out amongst other subjects

[Harsh]

Right, I know about the classes. What I am not sure on is what is detailfest all about? Is it vendors and booths and people hanging out, or is it classes and hands on type activities like the 101 and 102 classes offer?

Vendors, product demos/giveaways, car show, classes, etc

They have had classes in the past, but they are only hour long classes with a few minutes of hands on. It is mainly for you to learn about and get the feel of a machine polisher, not to teach you how to use.

I would like to take Michael's two classes regular and advanced same weekend in Florida. but the heat kills me , I do not do too well in the heat and humidity. is the building air conditioned and what are the closest hotels near by.

Are there any other months these classes are held when the weather is much cooler?

The air conditioning is very good ... might even want a jacket

There is no 101 and 102 classes at Detail Fest.

I've been doing this for years and I know from experience that people don't want to go to a "Show" and take an all day class. It doesn't work.

So we have "Mini Classes".

The full day classes are on dedicated weekends.

Also, as of this post we have not made any formal decisions as to how we're going to structure the classes for next year. Here's what we did last year...

Saturday Class 1
Flex Polishers Class with Bob Eichelberg

Saturday Class 2
Optimum Polymer Technologies with David Ghodoussi

Saturday Class 3
RaggTopp Products with Rick Goldstein

Sunday Class 1
Meguiar's Microfiber DA Correction System with Jason Rose

Sunday Class 2
Removing Swirls using Pinnacle Polishes with Mike Phillips

Sunday Class 3
Pad Washing with Chris Lamb and the Grit Guard Universal Pad Washer
Motorcycle Detailing with Steve Gay from S100 and Sam Lankford from Ultima
