I am sure most of you noticed (and I also know there are a few of you who don't do this but I still think a good portion do) you have a trend in your detailing products as far as brands. Perhaps between 2-3 brands for most of your stuff and then some specific brands for other products (probably mostly specialty).



So which are the top 2-3 product brands found in your detailing arsenal and what products from each do you keep?
 
Wow this could be a very long thread.



Meguiars: Countless

Poorboys: SSR Line, Nattys Blue, EX-P, etc.

Lake Country: countless Pads
 
That's the point :)



P21S: Wheel cleaner, Carnauba Wax, Paintwork cleanser

Meguiars: QD, Interior QD, Leather cleaner



everything else is a well assorted blend of, turtle wax, 1Z, 303, Klasse, eagle one, armour all, oxy clean etc....
 
Zaino: ZAIO PC 2 5 6 10 18 ZFX

Megs: APC, M105, M205, QD, GC shampoo

DG: 451, 761, 821, 951



F* and Eurow occupy a decent amount of space too.



LC shouldn't count! Haha
 
Not much because I stick to what works for me. I am not on the bandwagon to go out and buy something to try it out. I will wait for a guniea pig to do that for me and I will see the results, THEN I will decide it if it's even worth it.



Mequiars: M105, M205, Last Touch Detailer

Menzerna: SIP, Power Gloss, 106FF, Power Finish, 85RD

various waxes and sealants
 
DG: 902, 601/111/105/951 & 501, 253/271, 471, 505 & 755 (I like DG products)

ONR is my new fave.

I notice in a lot of these threads that a lot of people use Meg's, me included but I am surprised by the absence of Mother's?



I assume most are like me, they tried it but found Meg's better? Just asking.

I think its also an issue of limited distribution of the mothers lineup, relative to Meg's.



Also since Meg's makes alot of products for people who use machines, Meg's products will be overrepresented amongst autopia members, who tend to own polishing machines.



Other companies product lines are not so machine focused, and thus not so represented. I think Mother's is more for the hand waxing crowd.
