  • Detailing/Kit Bags

    Anybody using these, if so which ones do you like and why? I've got 2 open top Husky bags from Home Depot I use. One for compounds, polishes, AIO's, and pad cleaner. The big bottles fit in the middle and the smaller bottles and tubes go in the outside pockets. The other I use for all my paste, liquid, and spray waxes and sealants.

    Also have 2 zippered bags. The big one holds a Rupes 21, Flex 3401, backing plates, accessories. The smaller one is for the PC and plates.

    Still need more bags for my large Meg's spray bottles, pads, microfiber, and interior/exterior cleaners/dressings, extension cords, headlight kit, etc. With the multiple bags I can grab what I need for the job or take only certain ones inside instead of leaving them in my detailing vehicle, like the wax/sealant bag.

    Still thinking about ordering a Dodo Juice Maxed Out bag (I think that's the name) or one of the large bags from Autogeek. I'd pack that with an all around kit if I already know what I'll need for a specific job. Or a few of these to carry most everything I have.

    We're still in an apartment waiting on my house to be rebuilt after the fire and my wife ain't too happy with the closets and corners getting filled with equipment that doesn't have a bag. Detailing isn't the easiest job for my broken body but the end result, money in my pocket, a satisfied customer, and more time with my daughter makes the pain a little easier to bear.

    Living in an apartment limits how you store your goods.

    I think what you are doing is swell.

    I have a tool box with two drawers (Craftsman) top has my rotary, and Meg's PC, drawer for rotary supplies and drawer for PC supplies.

    I have those rubbermaid bins for my pads, one for my applicators, here at the klink, we get laundry soap in square containers with lids and I store my towels in about 8 of them.

    I have a garage, but limited space and my GF parks in the garage, although she has to snake around my **** to get in!

    It's hard to decide what bag to get as depending on paint you will need a PC or a rotary with Cleaner Wax up to the harder compounds.....

    You could make a bag for harder paints, and a kit for softer paints

        I use the Husky bags also. I keep all my LC pads there. I use the Husky totes for spray bottless. 1 for interior 1 for everything else.
