I'm new to detailing and I'm interested in seeing your wash/detailing kit. I'm interested to see what your typical maintenance wash kit is, as well as more involved detailing sessions you do. A picture of the products and a brief explanation about what you use, and any tips would be much appreciated.

Best regards.

Side Note on the Aussie Merino Wool Wash Mitt...It is best to use a "pet" hairbrush to brush it out after it has dried.
The drying process is important for this wash mitt. (I hang it on a stick to dry). You do not want it to become rotten.
This is NOT you $5 auto parts store wash mitt. Taken care of (dried right and brushed) it should last a very long time.
Although kinda expensive (for a wash mitt) it is one of the best tools in my washing arsenal. Do it once. Do it right!

IMHO This is truly an outstanding wash mitt!!!
