Welcome!



Wish I had a Flex. Your list looks pretty dang good so far. However, glass cleaner, wheel cleaner, and maybe a few brushes for the tight spaces could be added.

Looks good! However just a few thoughts:



A lot of people really dont like meguiars clay. If you`ve used it, fine. I just thought Id give you the heads up. A lot of people prefer Clay magic or Sonus to Meguiars.



The APC+ will do nicely on the wheels, imo.



And a cheap glass cleaner like Stoner if you dont already have any would be nice.



Good luck!

get plenty of microfiber towels (for both the paint and the dirtier tasks), you can never have enough and you will go through lots of them...



btw... :welcome !

Craigdt- Thank you for the advise on the Meguirs bar. If I don`t like it while im using it, i`ll look into a clay magic.



Thanks for the welcome everyone. The products should be arriving on Friday. Hopefully the weather stays clear so that I can detail the car on this weekend.
