Not sure who it was, perhaps Barry, that mentioned you only really need six products for detailing. Assuming chemicals not media, what are your six?



Me:



ONR

Megs APC+

Clay Magic

303

UNO

ZAIO
 
Car wash soap

APC

rubber/vinyl dressing

window cleaner

spray detail wax



Oh well, that's 5. My bare essentials.
 
Category first - product selection second (my *current* favourite)



Shampoo - FK118

Clay - any fine one

Polish - PO203S

Wax - S100 carnauba

QD - DG591

Everything else (?) - 303
 
Here is my list:



Wash - Optimum Car Wash or ONR

APC - Optimum Power Clean

Detail Spray - FK425

Clay

Glass Cleaner Stoner's

Wax Sealant - BFWD or KAIO or FK1000P
 
6 products/types:



Car wash shampoo - Duragloss 901

Clay

APC - Zep Citrus

Dressing - Armor All

Polish - Menzerna 106FF/FA

LSP - Does not matter too much
 
SIX? Heck, this is just one of my cabinets. I have 4 others. Oh the agony. This is America. We demand variety!

Ok, I do have this kit in a couple of my cars. More than 6 but I thrive on overkill. :)

Brad B.--King of Labels! :xyxthumbs I've had a hard time finding decent cabinets like that, which I'd like to upgrade to; let alone those dividers you have you products in!
 
6 products... hmm, need to think them about them. Let me start with these: :P



- HD UNO

- HD Free

- HD total

- Mothers Reflections Tire care

- Mothers Reflections advanced car wax





Brad's travel kit looks killer. My travel kit contains decent stuff, but I realized you can get away with only 2 of them: HD total, and HD Free HD Free can handle almost anything, and leaves a decent shine. For those cases where HD Free won't cut it, you got the HD Total :P



However, like a good autopian, I have also vinyl dress, quick detail, etc ;)
 
Here is mine



ONR, and ONR mixed for QD and clay

HD Uno

Clay

Stoners indvisible glass

Turtle was ice total interior

Megs Ultimate wax , and ultimate wax spray

I'm with Brad B. on this one!



Maybe Barry can get by just fine with six products, but I'm no Barry Theal :chuckle:



I'd use up my six with just the three clays and three QDs that I'd hate to be without...or is that more like four QDs :think: Yeah, four...so with clay, QD, and my carwash I'm already at eight.

C'mon, I know you could do it if you had to. Coming from someone that has 30+ LSPs, its not easy, but if I had to travel light, I've got my six!

Well, I could live on Meal Replacement shakes and tap water if I had to too ;) Not exatly optimal though :chuckle:



OK:



-Griot's Car Wash

-Somebody's clay (preferably the hard-to-find Smart Clay)

-P21s Total Auto Wash

-UNO for the polish (that's kinda a wild guess, but it oughta fill a lot of niches)

-Collinite 845

-Z16



But Oh Man! would I like to also have something like KAIO and some QD like SpeedShine.



No, *I* wouldn't want to just say ONR for washing/clay lube/QD, but that's just me.
