Here is my recommendation...

Wash: just buy duragloss by gallon

Tires/Wheels/Interior/: All Purpose Cleaner (Meguiars) at different dilutions

Trim: some type of trim restorer, pretty dramatic results some times

Steel wool and some metal polish..

Buy a bunch of towels (25 pack for 25$ red 300gsm towels on Amazon)

I'd buy at least one Wheel Brush like the Daytona pro... Yellow microfiber mitt from autogeek is good value.

Are you getting into polishing and correcting paint? If so, and you're still wanting to do it the cheap way--then I could go on. However, if you are like many of us on here, you will learn the right way and never go back to your old ways again...

Now if you are just trying to flip cars, that's another story and I can see why you would not want/need the "correct" way of doing things.

At the end of the day, as long as you're honest with your customer (not saying you're a pro and then do cheap tricks) then you should be just fine. If you're selling the service of "detailing" and wanting to do cheap work, you should be charging much cheaper rates.

If you are just flipping cars, a simple spray wax on the exterior, cleaning of the wheels, and a big focus on the interior... The tools I listed above were for this process and that's what I assumed you were doing when you asked this question.

I work at a dealer and on a bad one it can take them 3-4 hours. The exterior you can just use a glaze, but the interior is where people care and there's no quick way to vacuum and remove stains.
