    So I wanted to be ready for things to come in the next few months, I have quite a few people telling me that they want me to clean their car up for them. With knowing that I can trust people to follow through with their request I placed my largest order to date.

    Gallon OPC
    Gallon of OPT wash
    Gallon of ONR
    Opti-Bond
    TK11 and batteries
    SV Leather brush-finally!!
    DD fine clay and medium clay-Thanks for the containers Phil, too bad one was cracked.
    1Z Cock Pit Premium x2
    Power lock
    2 DD wash sponges
    2 uber black 5.5 pads

    I don't do too many heavy corrections so I still have enough 203S and 85rd from last season. I mainly do a lot of interiors and one steps where I live.

    nice haul ... This is the first detailing season that I didn't get a whole lot. I just got some Autoglym stuff from Ken and the Meg's MF System. Can't wait to correct my vehicles.

    Are you feeling okay GDAL? Finally slowing down a little bit on the product purchases lol? I am looking forward to some feedback on that Meg's system, looks so much like the surbuf products to me.

    LOL ... I have a lot of house projects that have taken priority over my detailing hobby. I got a few cars scheduled for the upcoming months (2-3 a month) and that money is funding house projects. Don't get me wrong, I'm still detailing!!

    I'll keep you posted on the Meg's MF system.

    Sounds good GDAL. I think most of us understand that house projects trump detailing from time to time.

    I plan on using it at a 1:1 ration with distilled water out of a small spritzer bottle. I cannot remember who told me to do it that way but it works well. Spray it on the tire, let it sit for a few, come back and rub it in with a blue applicator and done.

    I see some really nice things in there, such as Optimum Power Clean, Swissvax brushes, the Uber sponges, Menzerna Power Lock and of course 1Z products. Very nicely done sir.

    Yes sir! I have seen so many great reviews and details with these products that i know I can't go wrong with them.

    If anyone remembers my little tactical light purchase last year form Costco, I just went out playing with my new TK 11, holy crap is that thing bright! You really do get what you pay for. Though I may never use it for detailing, it is awesome to just play with lol.

    Oh yeah, You will love the Blacklight, that is the only LSP I really go to now, did you pick up the V7 as well?

    Yeah, Its recomended. Ive applied BL by itself, the results are really good, the V7 seals it.......... I guess the consensus is that Blacklight is a glaze on some level or LSP. It can be used either way yada yada yada........... Anyway, I think its much slicker and amps up the look.

    Do you add an ounce or two of the ONR to the Optimum car wash when you're washing cars? I'm still debating on which gallon size car soap to get for the spring.
