Ok guys, ive used a lot of what I consider....good...OTC detailing products but ive been on here for about a year, and I feel im ready to step up to the true professional line of products etc. Don’t get me wrong, the OTC stuff ive used has been awesome to me, but I KNOW I can get better results using a machine and higher quality products. I’m also considering opening my own detailing business if I don’t find a job by the time the winter weather breaks.



So what im asking of you guys, as the professionals, is what products I should get that would sufficient enough for starting my own business? I want to know everything I should get all the way from towels/applicator pads, brushes etc. to machines. I want the vehicles I do to come out like they have JUST rolled out of a paint booth.



Let me know what I should get guys, list EVERYTHING I will need (even if it stuff I already have, I will need more). Also, please put the brands of products/supplies you recommend so that way im not scratching my head trying to choose between 5 diff brands of the same product.



Set me up big league guys! No holding back! Give me the best of the best!



Thanks :D
