My tax return should be at home by the time I get home for Spring Break on Friday so I want to get a few items so I can do some detailing while I`m home if it is going to be nice. As you may or may not know, I picked up 4 packs of the Sams Club MF`s so I was thinking I need to get some of that Microfiber Restore solution to wash the microfibers in. I also would like to get some Poorboys Polish with Carnuba, Poorboys Wheel Sealant, Poorboys Spray and Gloss, a big WW Microfiber for drying, a Meguiars Polishing pad to use with the PPC. Is there anything else I should look into? I already have the following items:

PB`s Spray&Wipe
PB`s SSR 1/2
PB`s Pro Polish
PB`s Natty
Four Star Carpet/Upholstry
Pinnacle Clay
Variety of brushes
Tons of MF`s
Bug sponge
Megiuars&Edge velcro pads
PC 7336
Meguiars NXT products

....I don`t even know what else I have!

Myself or any of my family dont have leather seats so until I come across a customer that has leather seats, I`m going to hold off on leather care products.

I believe I`m getting $289 back from the federal govt but not too sure what I`m getting back from the state. I need $100 to put towards my laptop payment to my dad($50) and another $50 towards my Best Buy CC. Another $100 will be drinking money for the last month and a half of my senior year of college so that leaves like $89 to spend on detailing stuff.

I would like to get a big WW MF, MicroFiber Restore, PB wheel sealant, PB Polish with carnuba....probably will just stick to that and hope I can get some more supplies for my bday

Skip the micro restore and use some white vinegar in the wash. That way you can add a sealant, like UPP or EX-P, since I did not see you have any listed.

I knew I forgot something....I forgot that I already have PB`s EX and EX-P. What does the white vinegar do? I think my mom would freak out if she saw me putting vinegar into her washing machine!

Your federal tax return should usually be larger than the state one. My state return was about 7 or 8 times smaller than the federal one. My wife lets me put the state return directly into my paypal account to help me get started in the spring. :naughty

Whats so funny PoorBoy??!?! :beer HAHAHA I wish that $100 would be able to last for a month and a half but my drinking gets out of control when I go to a bar. Good thing a new bar opened here that has Natural Light on tap for $4.00 a pitcher :beer Another bar down the road from this one has Keystone Light on tap for $3.75 a pitcher :bigups I love being at a small school where kids love drinking CHEAP beer!

I see that you have SSR1 and SSR2, but I would suggest something a little stronger especially if you are doing "customer" cars. I have found that SSR2 won`t get out some marring that SSR2.5 laughed at. JMO.

I did not see any QD on the list. Also some dash/console dressing and some tire/rubber dressing.

I have quick detailer, tire dressing and interior dressing. I HARDLY use quick detailer because there`s no point to it since my truck sits in the weather 24-7, I use cheap tire stuff because of the unpaved parking lots here at college and I usually just use low gloss armour all for the dash. I`m not a professional detailer or detail on a weekly basis so there`s no point in spending money on the good tire and interior products yet. Come June when I will be living with my parents again in the new house and have an open garage available all the time, that will be a different story...for now, I`m just trying to get by with the cheap stuff I don`t use very often.
