Meet at Meguiars headquarter and photoshot
Few of us have a meeting at Meguiar's Thursday Open Garage yesterday to do details and learn proper technique to remove scratches/swirls. After finish clean and detail our car, we head to nearby parking structure for a photoshoot.

Some pics at Meguiars by Mike S. He is a surface care specialist



Swirls, meet Ultimate Compound. UC - 1, Swirls - 0



There were some deep gouges in this hood from something that got kicked up on the freeway.



The deepest gouges were deep enough that we didn't want to keep attacking them, but the end result was an enormous improvement thanks to M105.



Just a bunch of car guys and gals hanging out at Meguiar's Open Garage



Hydrophobic, baby!! This is the 1st gen CL from member name RemieGino14:




Mike Pennington demonstrates the Headlight Restoration Kit also on the 1st gen CL




The Acurazine group points the way to ...... well, we aren't completely sure what their point is here. :dunno




Few pics from the photoshoot later that day.





More pics to come from me and Lippstuh. Enjoys!

That's awesome that you guys are able to do that, I would LOVE to be able to learn how to properly use all their detailing products first hand.

i believe they have a kit called headlight restoration or something like that. it came with the pad and you just use the pad on the end of a drill.
