Limited to 30 spots ONLY!!!
Yup, I know this is QUITE early to be posting about meets 4 months from now, but I got them to reserve a spot while there where still some spots left. Thought I'd better put up the info, before I forgot myself. I originally posted this over at CustomTaco's but the class may not fill up with just them, so it will also be open to members of TundraSolutions as well. Better to have a class full of Toyotas, than not even fill it...

We pick one or two cars to work on, the criteria is black if possible, or a dark color. Horrible condition, that is swirls and scratches, needs to be clayed. Car's are preferred the most because you can demonstrate and practice on the hood which is valuable because we want people to be able to look down and inspect before and after results.
The car we choose has to be clean because we don't have the time or facilities to wash cars.
When people leave our full day class they are equipped with both the head knowledge and the practical skills to tackle whatever their car detailing project might be and/or start detailing cars as a hobby or even business. We've had many people go through our classes that end up putting their new found skills to work making a few dollars on the weekend.
