Time: Much Too Early
Place: Ward's "Bust-a-Knuckle" Garage
Session: Leatherique Clinic

Our gracious host Paula, set up coffee, donuts, and bagels before she left for work that morning.  Our small group gathered in the kitchen for breakfast and a little chit-chit.  (I think they were just giving me time to wake up and become coherent.) We then promptly entered the classroom and began the tech session.  Professor Ward was scurrying around  while Ed Hale orated, and Headmaster Dean (pun intended) presented the various products as they were mentioned in the instructions.  Since Ed and Dean were not always in synch, we decided the best way to learn was to jump directly into the practical demonstration.

Two (of two) seats had been removed from the Hale's car as well as the door panels.  One seat had already been cleaned and prepared, so we dove right into the "painting" of the leather.   The reconditioned leather literally changed before our eyes. After several expert painters worked on the pieces, Ed and Sandy became the proud owners of a beautiful new interior for their car.  If you get the chance to see their car (the tech session photos don't do it justice) you will see for yourself what a wonderful product Leatherique is.  (Make sure you look on the lower edge of the right door panel, for that is the section I painted.  Come to think of it, I think they only let me paint that section because you can't see it once it's installed in the car!)

It  was a great tech session and I look forward to many others like it.
