Getting the full Ultima system - but how many of each bottle. Help me

Hi,

I going to order the full Ultima system, which product will finish faster due to multiple use and should i doubles of any of them. for example the PGP is probably gonna last me a long long time, but the Paint Guard Wash is probably gonna be used more and maybe need two bottles instead of just one.

the following products comes without any thing, like microfiber for application or wiping off, so i need some input which product goes well with these:

Ultima Detail Spray Plus

Ultima Interior Shampoo Gel

In addition i plan to buy some extra products here and there for example:

2pcs Genuine wool wash mitt

X pcs of some kind of microfiber for wiping off or drying the car (some suggestion here)

1 OXO Wash Brush (was thinking to wash the engine room, other use for it?)

1 OXO Spoke Brush (for the tyres)

1 Grit Guard Insert (for the bucket)

I know im probably missing something here so give me a shout out.

Thanks guy for the helping me out here.

BTW: Im getting a new Toyota, but i still plan to buy most of the Ultima, but if there is something that i wouldnt need please let me know.

The QD goes very fast, depending how often you QD in lieu of washing.

Second that on the QD and if you're getting leather or are just anal about keeping the interior clean the Interior Shampoo is a very good product and you'll likely need a second bottle of that. If you can go through the sealant products fast enough to need two bottles then you're either using too much or too often. The Tire and Trim would be the exception.

Re: Getting the full Ultima system - but how many of each bottle. Help me

Thank you very much guys i really appreciate all this from you.

so 2 bottles of the Detailing spray, and 2 bottles of the Interior shampoo.

Sealant, do you mean "Ultima Interior Guard Plus" or the "Ultima Paint Guard Plus"

I would probably need some extra products (as in accessories) microfibre and so on, how about the elastrofoam is it long lasting like the content of the bottle?

And i just came to think of something, would i need "Ultima Paint Prep Plus" for a new car?, maybe the swirlemarks would be so light that i could just use that one instead of a more powerful product from a competitor like Meguiars or Merzena or something?

+1 on the QD , interior shampoo and the carwash. Those definitely go the fastest. I really hope they will offer some lager sizes for those items.

Frank, you're welcome!

Yes, those are sealant products. From what I'm reading, the contents in the bottle that come with the Elastrofaom will be long outlived by the foam pad itself.

The Paint Prep Plus will be a very good cleaner and prep for your new car providing it has little to no swirling. It will remove any glaze or wax that may have been applied by the dealer and prep the surface for PGP. If you need more correction than that then you will need to get something that is a bit more abrasive.
