So have any of you guys ordered this kit before. I'm trying to start a small detailing buisness on the side and for the most part the kit really has everything I need. I already have my PC 7424XP and my trusty M105/205 so no worries there but I do fall short on just about all other chemicals. If no one has tried it maybe I'll just have to bite the bullet and see what I think for myself.

Thanks
Will

I think I'll take a look into that route. I'd say once I pick and choose what I need I'll probably come out saving money. :xyxthumbs: That is always a good thing.

The biggest concern for me would be the large gallon jugs of chemicals which could literally last you for years.

That's great if you know you love the stuff, but just starting out there are a lot of things you can try to speed up your details, or get better results with less work. I'd buy 16-32 ounce bottles until you get a feel for your clients. That also helps your cash flow and makes you profitable sooner.

What he said ^. I basically have the big bottles of interior cleaner & silk shine because I <3 it, the polishes & waxes are all the small bottles until I'm convinced it's a good one & I'll buy the bigger one. That and it's cheaper on the bank balance to get 2 small bottles & buy a new one when the 2nd one is opened...bit more expensive in the long run but you aren't forking out for a big bottle straight up & can use that money elsewhere.

Do NOT buy that kit it is a waste of money. I bought it and totally regret it. The price per ounce is outrageously expensive and you can buy so much more for the amount if money you spend. The quality and amount is super low. Please do not buy this kit.
