    I love this forum because people can be honest about different brands and what works best, etc. I have used a large mix of products, but I have to recognize that there are probably better products for certain types of use on my cars. So, hopefully there has not been one of these posts lately (didn`t see one).



    I`m just wondering what all you guys would have in your dream detailer cabinet for the best of the best (not worrying about money).



    Please feel free to stray from the format, but just to get it going I will just make a short list to reply in regards to; please feel free to reply to any or all or add some. Combinations of products are great to include too, since I know a lot of times combos work best. Thanks :-)



    1. Wash

    2. Clay

    3. Paint cleaner (non-abrasive)

    4. Light/Medium abrasive or DACP combo

    5. Polish

    6. Wax for show (or combos)

    7. Wax for protection (or combos)

    8. Tire shine

    9. Rubber/Vinyl cleaner/conditioner

    10. Plastic cleaner/conditioner
