Hey everyone!
Been planning this for a while, and it looks like I`ll finally be getting a car of my own (I work at a dealership and get demo cars to drive, so I haven`t needed a personal car for quite some time). Anyway, I should be getting this brand-new, off the truck, and I wanted to see what everyone suggested for detailing it properly, right from the get go.
As I said, I`ll still have the demo as a daily driver, so this will be strictly a weekend, "fun car", which will be garage kept and stored during the winter months.
With that said, what should be the proper tools, techniques, etc. for me to be looking for in this situation? I already have a PC 7424 (got it as a Christmas present) but no pads, and the wife`s parents ordered me the detailing technique DVD from showcargarage.com as a birthday present (it should be here any day). But that`s it as far as detailing equiptment, so I`ll have to purchase all the rest. Since the car will be here the end of this month, or the beginning of May, I figured I`d better start finalizing my choices now so that I can have all the supplies ready when it gets here.
BTW, it`s a white, `06 Evo MR, if the paint color makes a difference in the equation.
Anyway, thanks in advance for any help you can give! It`s a fantastic site, although I have a sneaky suspicion that the more time I spend here, the more money is going to disappear out of my pocket... ;) :D
