so heres how my garage sits now


my mom was kinda making fun of the fact theres 2 40k dollar cars sitting in the driveway. and my 10k dollar car is in the garage. lol





so the top drawer has my white pads that come with the UDM ( i have two because i had to send one back to get fixed so i was sent a complete new UDM)

second drawer has my cutting pads. i just got my AG order, so the new guys are the 5.5 yellow ccs pads you see there, and i also got a 6 pack of orange cutting pads

third drawer has more CCS pads, some applicators, more orange pads

this is my first tool drawer. this drawer has all the socket wrench, and socket related tools

the one below it has an assortment of wrenches and screwdrives and misc tools

waxes and QD drawer. that TW ice stuff is the only thing that doesnt used...

this is the polishes drawer.

Misc detailing chemicals

mostly non detail related misc chemicals. the 3 QD bottles you see are just filled with water

cresent tool set. i use this as my primary tools really. but i have it seperate so i can take it with me when i go to my friends house to work on their cars. that

and finally the drill drawer =)


first cabinet is where my UDM sleeps, along with my car wash stuff, and my new menz polishes

they wouldnt fit anywhere in my tool box because the bottles are so big, so i put them here.

the next one over has some stock car parts. and a valve cover tahts awaiting a real hand polishing job...[/quote]

so i have a civic detail this weekend, and it involves paint correction. ill be fully documenting it with pictures, so i can add another car to my portfolio. as well as having an awesome CandB. so im excited to finally get some real work done in my new garage =)

Re: so heres how my garage sits now

I would find a place to stand up the pump spray bottles
sooner or later they will leak and make a mess of your tool/ tool box

I would hang them off of a towel bar or a wire shelf

Re: so heres how my garage sits now

well its a 2 car garage, so once we move more of the move in junk moved out of the right side of the garage we will be able to park my moms car in there. i want to keep my car garaged, because im tired of it getting filthy after a coupe days of washing it

i keep my MF in the white drawer storage thing next to my toolbox along with my grout sponges. and i know what you mean when you talk about it gets everywhere. the detail im doing on saturday is going to make a mess lol. and ive thought about standing those bottles up, but those spray bottles for the most part are pretty much empty, and none of them have leaked yet. but we will see

Re: so heres how my garage sits now

Nice organization!

Now you need to buy a thermal label maker and put labels on each drawer...well, that's what I did anyways Makes it a little easier to find my stuff!

Re: so heres how my garage sits now

hmmm. i dont think im going to label anything, because as my collection grows ill probably end up moving to a completely different storage setup. thats my dream is to have enough detailing supplies and waxes that ill need to reorganize everything. =)
