The detailing product that made me enjoy detailing was Ultima Waterless Wash +. Once I found out about 3-4 years ago I can use that product to safely wash my car after my surgery, I was thrilled, and from that day on I`ve been addicted! It is the best waterless and rinse less available!

Buying my first DA, 2 years ago changed everything. My GG6 stepped up my game to an entirely new level and opened up the door to really understand what it takes to do a full correction.

I still remember using clay for the first time. I had no idea paint could feel that smooth.

I`m going to go with Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant.....I remember 6 or so years ago putting it on my Black 98 Nissan Maxima...and the results blew not only me away ...but other people wanted to know how I got that deep wet look.
And the ease of putting it on and removing was a breeze !!!

What turned detailing into a hobby for me was using ONR for the first time as a rinseless wash. Since than I`ve always had a need for it and its uses have expanded from being just a rinseless to a very versatile product with many uses.

I so agree. When I first clayed I was horrified at what came off!

Nice choice. It is a great sealant!

Probably the first product that got me addicted to detailing was Meguiar`s Classic polish. I remember my mom always purchased the detailing accessory package with her Mercedes Benz at the dealer so I had a bucket and car soap, coolest thing was the chamois drying towel with the Mercedes logo that said "Made in West Germany". My dad bought some Meguiar`s kit back then so when I finally got my own car, I had to hand wash it first and was ready.

The product that made me enjoy detailing was Meguiars Clay Kit!
It is easy to use, the clay + cleaner wax sample helps me to learn the process, and it leaves paint super slick!!

I guess the first product that really did it for me was Poorboys SSR2. For years I was a 3M guy and was too hard headed to believe anything was better. After joining this forum in 2010 (when it was DC) and seeing all the members rave about Poorboys, I bit the bullet and placed a very large order, which included damn near the entire Poorboys line, a 2nd gen GG6, and a ton of CCS pads. The first product I tried was SSR2, and my mind was blown by the results. My life hasn`t been the same since :)

Changed the way I detail:
My first Porter Cable random orbital. Working in a shop as a teen taught the craft, but at home I had to flex the muscles to finish a car. Now I dream of a FLEX, but the PC is tried and tested.

What made detailing fun:
Menzerna Super Intensive Polish was the chemical that really made my detailings enjoyable again! Having been a 3M Perfect it III user for a long time, the Menzerna chemicals came along and blew my mind!

[WaxAddict]

Poorboy`s World Spray & Wipe gave me "the bug". I got S&W as a clay lube with a small order, and at first, I scoffed at the claims about it being a waterless wash. When I finally tried it, I was amazed that it worked as claimed and then some. EVERY surface of the car was happy with the Spray & Wipe, even glass and trim. The quality and smell of the product was intoxicating, and it got me back on the internet discovering and ordering more products. I haven`t stopped!

Blackfire total polish and seal

These are really cool to read. Keep em coming!

Nanoskin Autoscrub Wash Mitt/All NanoSkin Products..... Went from hours of clay time to minutes of paint decontamination. This Second step of my detailing process went from an annoying chore that took up 40% of my total time detailing to about the same amount of time it takes me to wash a vehicle.
