Today I attended a detail clinic sponsed by Thompson Racing and Adams Polish.
Heck it was only five minutes from my place and even though the weather forcast called for heavy rain (and the weather man was right), I elected to take my freshly detailed truck out of my garage to check out the detail clinic.
I got there early before it started to rain to take some pictures. Anyway, here are some pictures from today's detailing clinic.

AJ (aka The Junkman). This guy was a wealth of knowledge and quite entertaining to boot.

I pick up some new microfiber towels and a few other goodies. I even won a can of Adams's Americana paste wax for best paint (an award that I think Eric made up because he liked my truck). The Thompson boys are good peps.

I had a good time at today's detail clinic, meet some cool folks and even learned a thing or two. Doesn't matter what you drive, when you get a bunch a "car guy/gals" together good times follow.
Thanks to Eric, Evan and Elliot for hosting this event and special thanks to "The Junkman" for sharing his detailing expertise.
