Two Wash Pails I ordered from AUTOGEEK, one Red and one Clear. I plan on using the Red one for Soapy Cycle and the Clear one for the Rinse Cycle.

Two Black Grit Guards... that stack up one over the other, in each Pail.

Some of the Towels I ordered. The Green MicroFibre Towel on the bottom is called the Guzzler and has pockets for your Hands to go into to help you hang on to it as you move it around. Supposedly, one will do the whole Vehicle without wringing it out, ever. The item on top is my Micro-Fibre Apron with built-in Cord Loops.

Nice! That stuff will last you a long time.

Also about the two grit guards. Is that even necessary? Seems over kill.

Dang!

It is Christmas in September!

What are you going to tackle first? You're truck?

Ouch! Kind of hurts your eyes to look at those swirls!

You think you are ready....I think you can start detailing a lot of cars! That is a nice piece of products to start with, you will love that 3" Polisher!

Thank-you so much for the speedy delivery of this order !

Yes Mike, I have lots of nice designs in my Paint, that I want to get out. The Paint on my Truck is really bad.

:autowash:

The 2 Grit Guards ? I read about this idea somewhere in the AG.Net write-ups... and since I have a Black Truck, I didn't want to scratch my Paint every time I wash it... after I had gone over it with the Buffers. I'm really looking forward to using the Wolfgangs Deep Gloss paint Sealant on my Black finish.

:buffing:

For a newbie, the crazy assortment of Pads might be an overkill, but if you were to have seen the expression on my Wife's face when these 2 boxes showed up on our Door-step, you too would have been glad that you went nuts in the first order... because I might not be able to do this again, for a while. :props:

I hear ya completely on the wife issue. Better to take and ask to be forgiven!!

Looking Good Dean! Now to make that Black Denali Look good. Once your wife sees the truck after you are done she'll let you shop again...on a budget! :buffing:

Man looks like someone is going to have some fun!!

After you use that 3" orbital let us know how you like it....I am thinking that might be a nice tool for A/B posts and tight areas. Might be geting one myself!
