Excessive Detail

Hey guys, I recently posted some pics of how and what I used to store all my detailing supplies, and since then I have rearranged my supply storage as well as found some new things to aid in a more organized storage setup. By no means am I trying to show off or brag about the amount or types of products I have, I just want to share my ideas and maybe give some help to those looking for better ways to store their stuff, so here goes.
First, I got a new cabinet thats bigger and alot stronger, which is the main reason for the whole re-organizer my supplies, its a Colman from Lowes.

Here are the pics of how I seperate my supplies on the shelf.
The top is were I keep all my compounds. polishes, sealants, and waxes, mainlyy bottles no bigger than 32 oz.

The second shelf is were I keep all my gallon refill supplies.

The third shelf is were I keep all my applicators and clay, the clay in in the smaller contanier and I keep Light clay in the top drawer, medium clay in the second, and used caly in the third to keep from cross contamination. In larger container I keep all my sealant, protectant and wax applicators seperated again to keep from cross contamination. And my tire applicators are just stacked on the side.

Finally the bottom is for all my washing supplies, I used metal hangers to keep some stuff off the ground so they won't get contaminated and give me more room.

Here is were I hang all my bottles and keep my MF, same as before, just had to motify it for space reasons. Mfs are in a three drawer container sepereated by use, if you notice some of the mf have two similar stack and on behind it or in between it, this is were I put my the mfs I have already use so I can keep a regular circulation, so I'm not always using old ones or the same one. Dirty Mf go in containers on the side, not pictured, and are seperated by use also.

Finally, this is a space saver, I found these bottles at Wali-World, about .76 cents a peice, I bought all and a label maker and this is what I came up with, really save space, easier to take with me, and easier to apply the same amount of product each time.

I carry them in my car in this container which I modified to keep them around the edges, which allows me to put mfs, and other stuuf in the middle, big space saver.

Some Misc. must haves.
Roll around, makes it so much easier to detail with and a modified exstension cord roll.
