    I tried that X-Treme Clean stuff once and hated it. I returned it and got my money back. It was just too hard to work with. I think you're just better off to use PlastX for headlights and M04 for glass. Even though it's only $1.50, it's still a waste IMO.

      I had one of those towels already; I thought it worked pretty well. And I'll let you know what I think of the X-Treme Clean, but thanks for the heads up.

          Got a question, just curious, why do you guys buy several products of the same one?

          And, how much have you spent on detailing products in total?

          My collection is tiny compared to these

            1- rate of use for cleaners, waxes, etc. Towels: you can't have too many towels, especially microfiber towels. I have 4 water magnets. One towel for every section. also, a dozen supreme shines.

            2- I have no idea... And I haven't really been detailing for long.

              Entire Cabinet




              Top shelf (the tin foil is to cover electrical components when cleaning engine bay )





              Bottom Shelf (mostly MF towels , drying towels etc)



              This is my humble collection so far!

              Please give me tips on arrangement if you have any opinions!!!

                  Who wants to send me some M16 in the blue tin?

                  I can't find it cheaper than $35, and it's from Canada. Can't find it here in Michigan.

                  Maybe I'll have to go with Collinite No. 476s if I cannot find any M16.

                    PM me. I'm not sending it, but I have an idea where you can get it for less than that.

                      Even in Canada the M16 is no longer available. For the price people are asking for the M16, you could buy some premium waxes from Pinnacle, Wolfgang,
