Holy sh%#. Now thats what I call a garage. Im just getting into the detailing realm and I was just thinking that I need to fix up my garage for my new hobby. This is definitely much better than I was thinking lol.

Time to update my list of detailing goodies since I've found some stuff that has knocked about everything else out.

Still using a Porter Cable 7424XP, but planning on upgrading to a Rupes Bigfoot LHR21 soon.

For an aggressive compound I've been using Menzerna FG400 with microfiber cutting pads and yellow foam cutting pads

For a medium and finishing polish I've been using Sonax Perfect Finish 4/6 with an orange light cutting/polishing pad or a white polishing pad (depending on how much cut I need)

Paint work cleaning lotion is still my trusty P21S Paintwork Cleaning Lotion. This is used with a white pad.

I've changed up my paint protection a little bit and have been using Sonax Polymer Net Shield as my go to sealant. The stuff is great, it's very durable, and it doesn't have set for 30+ minutes before you wipe away the residue. It lets you put sealant down as quickly as you could put down a coat of paste wax.

For carnauba wax I'm using Wolfgang Fuzion.

I've changed up my detail sprays a little and am using Adam's Detail Spray V2 and Wolfgang Deep Gloss Spritz Sealant and am having great results with that regimen.

I'm now using a Rupes Bigfoot LHR15ES in place of the Porter Cable 7424XP. Great tool, it runs much smoother than the Porter Cable and works A LOT faster.
