Looks pretty good. The P21S Paintwork Cleansing Lotion and Klasse AIO might be a bit much. I think that you will only need one or the other. I would just use AIO and then P21S wax. That should work fine unless you have other plans.





Also, after cleaning the engine, are you planning on dressing everything with 1z Vinyl and Rubber Care? If so, thats fine but it is the expenisive way to do that. For the engine there are other good alternatives if your interested.



Hope this helps :D
 
That looks pretty good for a 1st timers kit, nice work!



Gonna suggest one change.. drop the P21S and the indivdual 1Z dressing and leather products and use the money to buy the 1Z matte effects kit. That way you will have everything you need for detailing the interior and trim of your vehicles too!



Also, make sure you use the current coupon codes for Autopia, see DavidB's post on what coupons are current.

So the Klasses AIO will do the same thing as the Cleansing Lotion? I read over the downloadable guide, and was under the impression that the Lotion cleaned the paint, and then I would do one coat of AIO, and then one coat of P21S. Correct me if im wrong.

The Vinyl and Rubber care is more for trim, and plastic stuff on the inside. Im open to any alternatives, but I would rather order all from one place, or be able to buy it locally. Let me know what your thinking of!

Which P21S are you talking about droping, the lotion as previously stated?



I need the IZ vinyl and trim stuff like I said, for the plastic and black trim on the outside. Then I need the leather to clean just that, my seats. Will the 1Z matte effects kit cover all of this?



EDIT: Just saw your last post. Didnt realize this was a 'kit'.
 
The P21S GEPC and the AIO will both clean the paint. The GEPC has some *very* mild abrasives whereas the AIO is basically nonabrasive. The GEPC has some fillers that the AIO will just remove. I'd just get the AIO and skip the GEPC. I use AIO all the time and I hardly ever use my GEPC (maybe once a year if that).



You might need some kind of abrasive polish if you have any marring to contend with. Maybe something like 3M PI-III MG (05937/39012 depending on which size bottle).
