I just purchased a new car and 3 pinnacle kits.

What is the proper procedure of storing your cleaning supplies (wax, shampoo, conditioners)

is there a certain temp they should be kept away from ( summer, winter)

Usually i just keep everything in my garage but its not insulated.


I was also curious as to how microfiber towels should be used.

for example if i used vinyl protect and wiped it dry with a micro fiber. should i keep it or wash it immediately to remove that residue.

Thanks :dblthumb2:

You my friend have just opened Pandoras Box. There is no end to how you can handle this. First, congrats on the new ride and the Pinnacle supplies.Where to

store your supplies? I store my waxes/polishes in my house all year long. the summers in my garage are hot and the winters obviously cold. Anything else can

stay on the shelf. I am a weekend warrior detailer on mine and my wifes car so if I have to go in the house to get a wax or polish no big deal. I have micros in

categories -seats-interior (dash,doors etc.),drying,wax/polish,all purpose and windows. i wash them everytime i use them. I wash my window ones alone and

the rest together. No fabric sheets in the dryer. Hope this helps.

perfect, i figured that storing all of them in either a frozen or swampy garage wouldn't be the best.

thanks

As winter ends and spring begins, the temperature at night here in Southern New England stays pretty much above 40 degrees.

Once I'm sure that my supplies won't be subjected to freezing, I take them from the basement and bring them out where their more readily available.

I store my detailing supplies in my shed. I find this very convenient as I'll have everything right at my fingertips.
