Default What detailing products can you not live without?

Meguiar's Vinyl and Rubber protectant, Tire Shine, Quik Detailer, and microfiber towels. Oh, and those plastic thirst-ty towels. Anyone else?

The Absorber is king. Quick Detailer & a Meguiar's Microfiber Towell also essential.

I've got a few.

Klasse All-in-One and Sealant Glaze. Great overall paint protectant.

Meguiar's DACP. Easy to work with and removes light scratches and marring without eating away the clear coat.

Four Star UPP. Great shine and the slickest finish I've ever seen.

Bold n Bright. Long lasting tire dressing w/ no slinging.

3M Aerospace Protectant. Best product I've found to protect against those nasty UV rays.

Waffle weave towels. I was skeptical about this one at first but it's the best product for drying your car.

Yup you can say it...I'm a detailing nut.

P21S Carnauba Wax one of our vendors sent me a sample . I used it on my Toyota and I am sold on it .
I have used quite a few products since I have been in the car business for the money this is hard to beat .
We now offer it on our website
