Smile Meguiar's 2004 Acura TL NXT Clinic

Well,
It's been a couple of weeks since I've been on line--started moving (upgrade) February 5th, and I am still awaiting Verizon's DSL to ramp up. Sorry for not getting back to a couple of TL'rs that have insight on the following:

I went to the Meguiar's NXT Clinic (Located in Irvine, Ca), as an "Add in" on February 7th. So-Cal Mercedes Benz club was down there going through this great clinic.

Mike Phillips is the Technical Advisor at Meguiar's, and did a fantastic job getting people performed with Meguiar's new NXT Generation lineup of products.

The day started out as a gathering of car enthousiasts desiring to learn a little history of Automotive wax & polishing products (since the demand was introduced around 1904), and the terms and proper use of auto detailing/protecting.

After a very informative 2.5 hours of calssroom briefings (and danish's & coffee), we headed out to the detailing bay.

A black 190E 2.6 was the demo vehicle, and Mike Phillips proved once again... that the spiderweb-swirlmarks could be removed with said products. The owner finished the other side of the hood after lunch--Free Pizza (Papa John's) Whoo whoo!
Good stuff Maynord.

For the 30 (plus a couple of stragglers) participants, we received a bag full of NXT goodies with some other Meguiar's products.

Participants also get an opportunity to by the Dual Action Polisher at a reduced cost. I got a gallon of "Final Detail." This is not Final Inspection. Final Detail has Siicon in it, and it seems to be a great product.

May 22, 2004 is the date set for 2004 Acura TL owners.

If anyone is interested in attending, please email me at:

nathansilver@verizon.net

I should have DSL tonight (Monday 23FEB04).

You MUST have an RSVP in order to attend.
Seating is limited to 30, so don't hesitate--It's a free class.

If we have a lot of interest, another date after that can be coordinated.

Copter, as promised before--you are the first person to be interested.

Z-Factor, email mphillips@meguiars.com to try to get info on So-Florida dates. He was really busy that day, and ever since--me too. Moving.

I already inquired a Ncal Bay Area clinic. None as of yet. I have used the NXT wax and the tech protector. Still have to use the car wash. Great products.

Copter,

I'm helping Mike Phillips coordinate this event to keep the number at 30.
We are trying to get Acura's Only, 2004 TL's as a majority, I think...

http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums...info&eventid=5

I tried to PM you last night, not sure if it worked.

Are you attending?
