Re: ADS order 2 Checklist
You might try looking for the Quik Wheel Detailer at Big Lots. I found it there for either $3 or $3.50, I can't remember which. Either way, it would be cheaper than ordering it from ADS. I also picked up Quik Out in the spray bottle for $3.50, but I don't know if you'd be interested in that or not.

Re: ADS order 2 Checklist
You only show one spray head, need one for the ASD, I suggest the chemical resistant one.
I agree with Murr, unless your trying both to see which one you like better, then you only need one. I love Quik Out but never tried the Detailer line stuff.....
The plush terries are great for windows as I think Kevin Brown uses terry cloths on windows and I tried it and only use terry cloths on my windows.....
Is that all the pads you own? Supreme Shine MF towels? Can never have too much!

Re: ADS order 2 Checklist
Zach,
Ok, let me try to do better this time...
1. On your pad bundle change from 2 finishing pads to none and add in an extra 2 polishing pads. If I remember correctly you had 3 finishing and 2 polishing pads bundled n your first order. When you are polishing you are specifically trying to remove defects and thus removing paint material. This will clog up and contaminate pads faster than during the finishing or burnishing process. Doing it this way will give you more overall flexibility and options and a final loadout of 2 cutting, 6 polishing, and 3 finishing pads.
2. Do you really need a case of Meg's Water Magnets? Have you tried them before? If not I'd suggest buying one first before committing to a case. I'm not a big fan myself but you might really like them.
3. Love the Supreme Shine microfibers....you can never have too many.
4. As others have stated, choose one of the carpet cleaners. I prefer the D-102 with it's angled and inverted spray head design and it's always worked well for me. (http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/sho...597#post329597)
5. I'm not a fan of the curved tire dressing applicatos as I do a wide range of vehicle from sports cars to big duallys. The curved applicators are too big for a lot of lower profile tires and gets dressing over the rims and too small for big truck tires and you're forced to put pressure on the "points" of the applicator and get an uneven application pattern. If you absolutely have to have one get a standard flat face one as well.
6. The plastic razor blades are ridiculous!! Safe on paint, glass, and plastics I use them everywhere...even inside the house and on the boat. Good choice!
7. I'm not a fan of Meg's M07 but it's a "love it or hate it" type of thing as many despise it and many also adore it. When you perform paint correction and finihs down with M205/Finishing pad it's very hard to enhance that level of gloss or add to the shine. Your mileage may vary, so give it a shot...just far from my favorite product.
8. Same goes for the ASD...I like M40 for exterior rubber, vinyl, and plastics and Tire Dressings for tires. If the M40 is just too expensive for you, then you could also do the Hyperdressing although admittedly it does not "last" as long as the ASD but is dilutable for varying levels of gloss.
9. I use the Last Touch 1:1 dilution for a wheel quick detail spray and it works excellent in that regard. If I remember correctly you purchased a gallon of Last Touch last time so this would be perfect to replace the Quik Wheel Detailer and you already have it. More economical as well as it can be used everywhere.
10. Everything else such as the wax, clay, M105, Glass Cleaner, etc looks good.
Hope this helps...

Re: ADS order 2 Checklist
The trial comes with a Chemical Resistant sprayer? That's good, should last a long long time.
I use Chem Resistant sprayers for my cleaners/dressings and future wheel brightner purchase. The only product I use a standard sprayer on is Last Touch. Don't own the glass cleaner yet. may use the standard sprayer for that as well.
Have fun with all your goodies when you get it!Philippians 2:14 - Do all things without grumbling or questioning,
