how about a detailing room?
sounds good to me?

anyone?

As in a separate forum for questions, answers, and "how I (you) did it's" relating just to detailing? I like it!

A "Progress reports" forum would be cool, too!

thks I thought it would help others when detailing their rides.

Do you mean like restoration style detail work, or the washing/waxing/cleaning type of detail work?

hmmm, judging from the pics I've seen of Dawgs car, I think he means "cool little touches" mostly under the hood. Restoration type detailing might fit, too, except we all ready have a forum for that.

i think both would be appropriate

Best Detailing Forum on the web....Geared towards new cars but in my opinion, there's no better source for learning about all the detailing products that are out there.

I'm new here and was looking for the "detailing" forum to ask a question. After not finding one, I searched for detailing and found this thread. Basically, yeah I think that's a needed addition to the site!

We have a detailing forum on FLCFA.net but that's mostly 4th gen cars and I was looking to ask a 1st gen specific question.

Hope you guys give it some thought.
(where should I ask my question?)

Under the current format I would look for and use the paint and body forum for washing, waxing and general detailing questions and answers. For details like dash mods, underhood routing of wires etc I would go to the appropiate forum like interiors or engines and of course there is always General Tech where we could use these types of tech question and less chit chat questions that the mods are always moving to bench racing.

I can't speak for Al who controls the look and feel of the site but the mods stay busy in the forums we have with misplaced topics. Having fewer forums actually solves that as each forum gets a wider scope of topics. Adding more forums tends to create more mis communication. A great example is the Restoration forum I moderate. The subheading says "where correctness counts" Every week I move queastions about alum radiators, custom interiors and other general restoration questions that have nothing to do with restoring a car to it's correct stature or what is a correct part for a specific car.

Al tries to give us what we want but when we see people don't read or interpete what the forums intent is we have to look hard at if it's worth generating more work for everyone to keep the site in order. Any way just a bit of insight from this angle...

What I could see possible happening is subtopics like in the Archive forum. Maybe Paint and Body could have a subtopic called "Detailing (keeping that show shine looking like new)" Again any changes are Al's call...
