All in one detail kits
Looking for a place to get everything i need to do a full detail on my own. I mean everything. I've been on the Zaino and Chemical Guys websites. Both have received good recommendations, I'm just not sure which company and/or kit to go with. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm all about convenience, I want to order something that will provide everything I need.\\
thanks in advance to all who respond |

I think detailersdomain.com and detailedimage.com have good kits. With the brand don't really worry because I think they all do good work. It just comes down to preference

its a really broad statement.
do you need a polishing kit with a PC and pads and everything else, or are you just looking for the basic car care kit for washing and waxing? Detailedimage.com will be able to take care of you for sure! If you would like me to, I can put together a kit for you like I did for someone else on here already and answer any questions you might have. |

Am I right that a complete exterior detail goes in this order:
1) Wash & Dry 2) Clay 3) Polish 4) Glaze 5) Sealant 6) Wax Is there any harm to skipping the polish step but completing all others? Or should clay always be followed by polish? |

probably do a polish once a year, since it takes the longest. Also get some quick detailers for maintenance between the details. I am also just getting into detailing , I ordered majority of my stuff from chemicalguys.
Read the list give by Eclipsis, I got the stuff on his list and added more items. http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=388592 |

If I were you I would definitely not skip the polish step which is the process of paint correction which removes the swirls/scratches/holograms. In my opinion that's the most crucial step of the entire detailing process. |
