in need of auto detailing tutoring

[naqi]

dear ZTH forumers, I am very keen in learning on how to wash and detailing of cars. But, it seems quite hard for me to find any company offering workshops or classes as i need more hands on approach. I've been learning by myself through forums, mostly through videos in youtube. Been following and is a huge fan of Larry Kosilla of Ammo NYC. If any sifus out there provide such tutoring, please let me know a.s.a.p. Thank you in advance, and thank you admin, Mr. Tom for this great site. cheers everyone!

i'm actually a student and still studying, so during my semester break i've been thinking of learning on how to properly detail cars. but yeah, since i'm a newbie, and part time for a very short period of time, they would not hire me. so i was thinking of taking a detailing clinic with someone reputable in this sector

I don't think you need lessons to learn detailing. You just need to hangout with detailer friends, chat with them and observe. Then get your gear out and do it yourself on your own car. If you're gonna go all out, get the following :

1. A DA polisher or a random orbital sander (with polishing pads x 2. Yellow and white).
2. At least 20 large pieces of microfiber clothes with their tags ripped out. Wetshine has some nice cloths.
3. 2 buckets, one for soap and one for pure water
4. Clay bar
5. A polishing compound and a wax. Sealant is optional
6. A washing mit
7. A pressure washer
8. Wheel cleaning brush
9. A good soapy neutral car wash like the Orsen bubble wash

Last thing you'll need is one helluva lot of stamina to work on your car.

i know in properly washing a car includes these crucial 4 steps:-

1.washing (to remove the loose debris on the car)
2.claying (to remove all the embedded debris that is in the paint)
3.polishing (to remove all the fine swirls and scratches that is on the paint and to purify the depth of the paint)
4.waxing (to seal the final product from the elements)

but the thing is, i always skipped step 3, due to lack of equipment.

i do have a washing mitt, microfiber cloths (around 10 of it i guess), clay bars, using the two buckets system, a pressure washer from Karcher, and wax and also soap from Turtle Wax. and everything is done by hand, once a month.
