What happens when two AZ.COMers get together on a beautiful Sunday

Much fun to be had by all. If anyone else in MD wants to join us sometime, we do this quite regularly (obsessively polish/clay/wax/wash our TL) so leave a comment and maybe we can all get together for a big wash/wax/whatever mini meet or something I really do enjoy detailing my car and I love to see results like this:

















Cant catch meeee!

Of course, my car is clearly superior to his

Anyways, Im posting this here because I thought Id but out the invite for any locals who wanna do wash/wax meets

Drop me a line through PM or here if you are interested.

Cool. Nice pics too. I thought we were going to be doing that wash and wax meets every first of the month? Not sure if everyone confirmed that would be good. Yesterday was pretty nice but I knew I had all this week to detail mine so I had to leave something for myself to do

Isnt the mega meet the first Saturday or the month? Well, I guess I meant this is for people whbo cant get to Rockville to detail their TL's =)

I need to meet up with you and listen to your Injen CAI. Im debating between Injen and AEM and will be purchasing soon.

I love the clay. I will continue to do it quarterly.

From what I know, Trimking supplies 3M double sided industrial strength tape. Alot of the members here have used him and None of them have had any issues with the lip coming off...

Damn, my paint needs to go to boot camp and be whipped back into shape. (swirls) I've never done the clay and desperately need a wax. When do you guys hook up? Would you mind giving a CL-S some CLAY101 ?

What mega meet? When? Where? I'm in NOVA and would like to see the good TLs. Is someone who never washes his car eligible to come to Rockville?
