[oldcorollas]

an idea for a toymods saturday morning out...

http://wwwvgautopaints-px.rtrk.com.au/begginers.htm
sign up there

next one is November 13th, 8am to 12pm
need enclosed footwear.

no idea what the free course entails, but has to be better than nothing, and good for noobs like me to get 1/4 of an idea before getting 1/2 an idea.

is at 11 Amax Ave, Girraween (near blacktown)

maybe do lunch somewhere and talk shite afterwards??

who's up?

[oldcorollas]

well, it's gonna be a stinking hot day... i hope it is airconditioned!

oh man, wish I'd seen this thread earlier.

any idea when the next one is Stu?

[oldcorollas]

no idea... they list:
august('7??)
june('8??)
march('9??)
feb ('10??)
may
september
november

so guessing every few months now?? will ask. they did say:

>>Lessons are held Saturday once a month and run from 8am till 12pm

i think it might be pretty basic...

Learning to fix minor dents and scratches on your car can save
you quite alot of money.
VG Auto Paints hold free lessons that will teach you the
basics and show you how to get a professional finish.

but really i'm just going to see gun adjustments and their effects, and also get a rundown of compatability of products etc... and see what hardware/paint they offer (and chinwag)

next one will probabyl be around Feb next year, and running maybe every 6 weeks.
They said it's good for clubs to come down adn make a morning out of it.

very helpful guys, explained all the steps, excellent demos (from initial surface prep to final buffing and polish), get a bit of a hands on.. and realyl good with questions (even if some from the audience were rather... stoopid )

was about 45-50 people today. they offered a couple of things on a spot special... but not so much.


anyway, a good morning out and worthwhile seeing them go through all the steps

edit: plus they gave out cheat sheets for each sequence for various things.. probably just a print out of the stuff on their website but, still handy.
