[QUOTE="KrisMas, post: 1064019310, member: 61607"] Just my personal opinion. Comparing Mike Phillips with Darren would be like comparing apple and orange. MP is the Director of Training at AG and it his JOB to show/train/teach...i.e. in order to market AG's service and products. DC is now the director of a big detailing establishment and his job is to make sure that the cars going out from his establishment do not dissapoint his clientele. To be able to do this, you'd need decades of skill and experience. You want to see befores and afters of his works, you'd need to search posts from years back. Believe you me he can and I've seen him removing sanding marks and polishing it to *almost* perfection (as in almost zero hologram) using M85 and a wool pad, way back when he was still at his previous place. Darren is there, where he is right now, not because of his marketing skills, but because of the quality of work he is able to produce, be it personally or by employee he personally trained.
