OK so i have the basics of the two bucket car wash system down. i just got a new car and am dedicated again to taking better care of my car. especially in the summer.
what do i need to get started? key note - my water pressure sucks so a standard hose and nozzle might not cut it. what are the basic products and tools i need to take care of my car in my driveway, before getting to waxing and claying.

If you call autopia/autogeek and tell them what you want to accomplish, they will guide you correctly
