    HW is on my radar as the next soap I'll try

    I think that is the case in a lot of places that do high volume but still have to maintain a high standard as well as a lot of discerning "hobbyists"

    The kid has not had a fatherly presence for much of his life. I was thinking it would be nice to give him something to maintain the car as gift, and perhaps infect him with the detailing disease.

    His mother is getting him a few things for Christmas (on my recommendations) so I had intentions of something like P&S Bead Maker or Paint Gloss. I know Bead Maker can be a bit tricky to use and considering his lack of experience I don't want to discourage him, hence the thought of Paint Gloss as it's easier to work with.

    Any thoughts or suggestions welcomed.
    A gallon of Hyperwash, some good wash mitts, a PFM drying towel, a pint of Collinite 845, and a bottle of Duralgloss AquaWax.

    DG is another brand that seems to fly under the radar but at the same time everything you hear is good

    Several of their products are on my wish list along with the BOSS cremes

    I got Collinite 845 on some trim years ago...

    DuraGloss is a really solid company. Their 253 tire dressing is still my favorite to this day. And I have tried probably 20 different ones.

    You'll fall in love with BOSS creams. They work outstandingly, do not dust, have some of the easiest wipe-off of any products, and smell pretty good too. (Cherry-ish).

    Re: Product Recommendation

    A nice basic set up of a bucket, mitt, soap, drying towel, and an lsp.

    Get some decent cheap stuff so he has everything to learn and complete the whole process.

    Or better yet, if you want to spend the bucks, a foam gun and a gallon of super good soap along with some mitts and a PFM towel then the LSP
