    I'm getting down to the final list of what I need, this is what I have so far. If you can think of anything else I might need or don't actually need let me know.


    I'll have the vx5000. Do you think I will need the Sonax for the heavier stains?

    I know ONRWW can be diluted for glass cleaner, spray detail and clay lube. What ratios do you guys use and can it be used for anything additional?

    thank you for the input guys.

    For pads I really like the hydrotech's.

    For a sealant try out Menzerna PowerLock

    I don't see an APC? If I were you I would skip the detailers pride engine stuff and get a gallon of Meguiar's APC+. It will do engines, wheel wells, tires, wheels, carpet pre treatment, carpet spot cleaner, etc. etc..

    Re: Am I missing anything?

    -what about a pump for the pressure washer?
    -APC? look into a super degreaser and a normal apc
    -ditch the engine/exterior cleaner.. thats what the apc is for diluted at the correct ratio. ie 1:1 10:1 4:1 etc
    -5" backing plate and 5.5" pads larger areas
    -3" backing plate and 3.5" pads for tight areas
    -for the foam cannon you should have solution for stripping wax and solution for normal wash
    -leather aio
    -again, the sonax could be ditched for the apc diluted the correct ratio
    -you should use distilled water for anything you dilute
    -when adding solution into the cannon, make sure its warm water
    -metro vac n blo vacuum- i would ditch that and get the sidekick for the tight areas.. people say the blower on that is weak.. but look into that
    -medium and agressive grade clay.. you never know..look into the speedy prep towel
    -extension cord
    -make sure your generator has enough power for all your equipment
    -different light to inspect paint and light the area of work. i.e. brinkman, led, halogen, headlight
    -any brushes in mind? for the cracks, grills, vents, cup holders, handles, etc..


    trying to give you as much suggestion as possible

    Re: Am I missing anything?

    Will the megs D103 APC be enough to remove most carpet spots or should I still get the Sonax?
