Hello again from Honduras. Well my time here is up and will heading back home soon. With that in mind, I wanted to arrive to a nice package waiting for me. Like I said before, I like to take care of my stuff, but now I am wanting to go to the next level. So I am asking all to review my order. I have read a lot over the forums and I have seen that Poorboy's gets great reviews so that is what I am going with. Please, let me know if I need anything else:

• Pad 2 : Orange
• Pad 3 : Green
• Pad 4 : Green
• Pad 5 : Gray
• Pad 6 : White

Thank you all in advance..
 
It looks like a great order to me. I also agree with mrclean81's advice to double up on pad choices. There is certainly nothing wrong with having each color as you will find the pads that work best for you. We sell a lot of every color.

However, it is best to have multiple pads of the colors you carry so you can switch to a clean pad on the run. Orange, White, and Gray cover all ends of the foam polishing spectrum.

If I were going to add additional items to your list it would probably be for another 6 pad kit. Work it so you have 3 oranges, 3 whites, 2 grays, 2 reds, and 2 gold pads. The gold pads are amazing for applying waxes and sealants. It may seem like pad overkill but you can never have too many.

This would round you out really well.

Also consider another waffle weave, you cannot have too many!

Don't forget your forum discount to save some money and thank you for your service to our country!

The only thing I would add is Microfibers. I refer clients starting out to the Griot's line only because they are colorcoded for each use. You can keep them organized and avoid cross contamination. Mine have held up for years. You can never have enough microfibers during a thorough detail.
You may also consider Wheel Woolies and Griots detail stick set for those hard to reach areas.
These items you will have for a while and are worth the investment for time and effort saved.
Best of luck!
 
Hey thanks everyone. I was thinking about the microfibers and went ahead and put some Griot's in there. I also added another six pack of pads. Thank you all once again.
