Kumeu Car Show

We were very privileged to be invited to partner with the great team from Meguiar's http://www.meguiars.co.nz/ for the Kumeu Hod Rod and Classic Car Show this year. We were onsite with the team to help showcase the great range of Meguiar's car care products and to show the public that you can achieve professional quality results with products designed to be used by the everyday car enthusiast. We had a great weekend, we got to work on some great vehicles using a wide variety of products and had some great feedback. We were even able to give some valuable advice to onlookers that were wanting to get their vehicles looking the best they possibly can as well. It was a great experience working with Mequiar's, the team is very knowledgeable and helpful and the products of course are world class. We hope we get the chance to do it again

Some photos from the weekend.

The Petrol head Magazine Falcon XR8 Got the full polish treatment and came up looking pretty wicked for a company vehicle.

Mr Rogan Hampson's all Aluminium Cobra is a pretty special car and we were stoked to be given the opportunity to test out the new Meguiar's Hot Rims Mag & Aluminum Polish. We're not sure that the polish was ever designed for such a job but it proved more than capable for the task.

After:

Sunday was a day for GM product as it turned out and Kev' from streetneat.com had us polishing his VE Ute, it came up mint and he let us park it alongside one of our vans for the afternoon. I can't forget to mention that one of their hotrods was awarded one of the top prizes of the weekend.
This 57 Chevy Pickup was an unexpected surprise, Being white I was a little nervous about just how much we'd be able to increase the 'Wow' factor, well the traditional styled Meguiar's Cleaner Wax layered up beautifully and the end result was a sight worth seeing. We used the metal polish again on all the brightwork and the finished result had the owner smiling.
We love this sort of customer reaction.

There's two cars that we workd on that I've misplaced the photo's for, we had a brand new 2009 Ford FPV GT Falcon lent to us for the weekend by the team at North Harbour ford and it looked awesome (I can also attest to how awesome they are to drive), we also polished a really nice VZ HSV Clubsport thanks to Peter from the HSV Owners club (and The Powertool Centre in Glenfield). When I find those photo's I'll post them up.

Thank you to Darlene and the team at Meguiar's for such a great opportunity to work with you all.
