i just ordered this detail kit....auto geek.net/forfavkit.html.....its my first attempt at puchasing quality detail products. so my question is...do you think i need more towels and if so what kind? also do you think i need anything else other than a clay bar and shampoo? Thanks- Ja

P.S.- in order to get to the site with the kit you have to type the url WITHOUT a space between AUTO and GEEK. sorry about that but its blocked from this site and wont let me link it or type it on this page

I suggest JT international towles on Ebay (his name is ultramicrofiber) or autopian member Pakshak. They both sell some quality towels.



That kit you bought is a bargain. Klasse twins and Pinnacle Souveran for under $100. Some great products.



What clay bar and shampoo do you have? I`ve been hearing great reviews of Autopia`s glide, block ,and waffle kit.



Armed with those quality products, I hope you`ve been reading up on the forums to know how to use those products effectively.



Happy Detailing,

Jason

frag, the link you posted doesn`t work because the word in the url is blocked on this site. Maybe we can help you if you tell us what it rhymes with. ;)

Here is the link you gave...

Yeah I like the idea of that kit. Like Jason said, it`s a great deal too: Souveran, Klasse, MFs, and CM QD combined! :xyxthumbs At one time that combo was really hot here I understand...



I would definitely pick up about a dozen MFs (at the very least) and some more foam applicators. One just isn`t enough.



Another way to order from JT Intl is by email (most people order this way): http://www.autopia.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=24408&highlight=international+email+tom+gong



Also don`t forget about washing materials like mitts and drying tools....
