Little about me, im an Amsoil T-1 dealer and operate my side business-premier automotive, doing detailing, lubrication and performance. Im currently in college and have been surfing the forums for a while and am excited to be a part of it and hope to learn as much as i can about the detailing business. My first question for the pros here are what supplies and chemicals should i get to to start, i have alot of high end cars that will be among my clientelle and i want to offer the best of the best to set myself aside from the others. Im :hungry: for knowledge!
Thanks in advance!

I'm new too and just ordered a flex xc3401kit.
It looks to be a lot safer as far as paint burn.
So welcome to AGO

Being a novice I have the Griots 6 & 3" DA. I have had good luck with them removing swirls and scratches. The next thing will be pads to use, foam or micro=fiber again users choice.

Good Luck.
