Date now confirmed as above.
This is an open day (well, a 10am till 1pm affair) at the home of detailing experts, Shinearama in Altrincham, Cheshire. If you're not in the North West, don't be put off by the location - I'm told that a chap travelled to them from Bristol, and that they have someone who recently travelled to them from Scotland.
Shinearama love to get involved with car clubs, and the open day is just one of the ways they like to help out.
They will give us a morning of instruction on the what, the how and the why of detailing and products (including snow foam, clay barring, waxes and sealants), including a demonstration on one lucky owner's car. They have literally hundreds of different products in stock, and there will be discounts on the day for cash purchases.
Breakfast and a brew will be thrown in at the start of the session. Please let me know if there are any vegetarians wanting to come along, as I believe they usually do bacon or sausage butties, so I'll have to ask them for veggie stuff.
And the cost for this hospitality and morning of tuition? Nothing, free, for gratis, nada.
Have a trawl around their website to see the types of stuff they do: http://www.shinearama.co.uk/
If your name isn't down yet, never fear. Just post at the end of the thread and I will put you on.

Update: We are now sharing this day with a Dodo Juice Open Day. That should mean we will be seeing some additional special offers There is also a show and shine competition, for which the prize will be Dodo Juice goodies.
