Well this weekend I will be buying my dad 07 Camry LE. It definately has it share of dirt and scrathes. He had it detailed professionaly once or twice but it's definately nothing like new. I also live near the shore if it changes anything. It is stored outside. Also I am a total newb to detailing but i think i could pick it up fast. Ive gatherd a couple kits im interested in and would lke your opinions. I would like to spend around 150.Thanks

Open to other good kits, and also i don't know what to get for interior. Don't need kit to shampoo since that will be easier for me at the car wash. Was thinking this to clean up general interior

Do yourself a huge favor, call Rick at Four Star Products - Ultimate Automotive & Boat Care and send him a picture of the car. Get Sun shots if you can. He will tell you what you need and how to use it. I purchased the Ultima kit and a "swirl remover polish" from him and it worked exactally as i neded it to. Limited only by my tallent!



Rick is a car nut and took the time to help me remove the marring I could not do myself.



Good Luck! Let me know what you decide and how it turns out.

I am not familiar with the Wolfgang products, but I can tell you I am happy with the Ultima, and the assistance I got form Autopia.com and Rick at fourstars was first rate and helped me solve my problems. Rick at 4 stars is the chemist behind the Ultima Line and he also the owner at fourstars. I purchased the Ultiama kit with the 110% money back garuntee and a nice up front discount they usually run. It protected the car, but I still had some swirls. I called Lyn and she had Rick call me. He asked for some sun shots of my car. AQsked if I could "feel" them and suggested a product and told me if it did not work, he would make good in it until I got my issue resolved. He did just that and even included a sample of a clay product he though I might like.



My car look great, and I have the confidence to know that I can now handle micro marring. I still have a long long way to go to come close to the pro's here, but I also just have to master my issues sice my customer base is myself!



Good Luck and I believe that there are lots of good products availible and you wont make a mistake if you stick to a good referecne from this board. This forum has taught me alot. Read everything you can here, and you will pick up bit and pieces. Sometimes I dont get alot of responses to my questions, but you can get answers from reading and searching this site.



I appreciate the service behind the products I purchased. I hope you solve you issues, I know they are frustrating.
 
my dad just bought be the craftsman 6in buffer/polisher so i am going to need some pads and stuff. I know it's not the best one but it seems to be good for the bigginner. I don't thing the ultima kit owuld be best now. Any suggesations for beiggner buffer kit.
