4) Mothers
5) 1966 Olds Cutlass
6) Yes, Yes/yes
7) No, I have never heard anything good about them or being better than what I am using right now. Mostly Collinite Insulator and Souveran.
8) $2500
9) Mainly, yes. But, I consider it a part time job during the summer season.
10) Intensive Polish, and the sh*t (it is a glaze) in it's pure form.

S100. Favorite sealant is UPP.

2)Where do you usually shop for detailing products?

Meguiar's Gold Class car wash, Meguiar's APC+, Klasse AIO, 4 Star UPP, my home brew glass cleaner. Make it 6 and I would add Meguiar's #9, make it 7 and I would add 303.

Meguiar's, but that is probably because I have not used Mothers.

10) If you can only have 2 products, what would they be?
My Master Card and a computer connected to the internet.:D
Only 2 products wouldn't do too much for me. Meg's car wash and Meg's NXT would probably be second choice. The NXT would cover up all the things I couldn't take care of because of limited product selection.

Heartsrundry,

When you shop 99 cents stores for towels you get just that, cheap quality towels. Remember that the knap of the towels and tags on the towel can mar the finish and possibly the paint. If you are going to buy quality products why buy cheap towels? :wait

IMHO going the extra step to buy a small assortment of quality micro fiber towels is well worth the 20 or more dollars spent when it comes down to a quality finish. :beat
