Detailing....Some Advice

Hi Guys,

Decided to invest in some decent cleaning products for the RRS.

So far i have bought:

Karcher Pressure Washer
Snow Foam Lance
5 Ltr Snow Foam
Poor Boys QD
DoDo Mellow Yellow Wheel Cleaner


Any other recommendations on what i should have in the kit?

Lots of microfiber cloths, wool wash mitts

Autosmart tardis, (tar remover)
Some sort of tyre finish (clean wheels look Censored With dull tyres)
Wheel sealant (keep dust at bay)
A sealant or wax for the paint

To start with anyway Laughing

Another thing to look at is glass sealant, I use carlack glass twins, basically a cleaner and a sealant makes water bead off when driving, better vision alround etc

I prefer not to use in on my front screen as it can smear when you use wipers

A good polish - i like Autoglym SRP, followed by Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection.

Also decent leather cleaner/protector and vinyl treatment. Weapon of choice at the mo for me is Zaino Z9 does both jobs.
