Jeff,
I believe there are a few Meguiars Distributors out your way that have workshops like this. Not sure if they're free but it's worth investigating. Maybe try posting on
www.autopia.com and find out if anyone else is aware of this. Meguiars also has
www.showcargarage.com, if you post on their a Meguiars representative will respond.
BTW who said there aren't any benefits to living on the left coast!!
