            This is my collection from last year. It has gotten bigger but not too much. I now have a rotary and some more Meguiar's products. I will try to get pictures soon after I organize everything. [IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

              Well I have 28 different Meguiar's products. Also the DA Polisher, backing plates, grit guard, supreme shine towel, water magnet and all the soft 2.0 buff pads. I just got my stuff out and put it on my shelving yesterday. I built the shelves several years ago, just for my detailing prodoucts.

                  Decided to add onto my current shelving. Not finished yet, still need to cut each shelf. I think I'm going to go with 1/4 subflooring I have laying around and use the shelves for the towels and maybe some of the clear containers holding the pads. We'll see. Or use each for more products. Each one should hold about 3-4 products wide. Hmmm lol

                      • Re: What's your collection of detailing products?

                        When I took the Meguiars 101 class in July 2012 I had a few products in my garage. Gold Class Wax, AGHD, some off brand microfibers, and off brand wash mitts.

                        Thanks to the great education of the 101 class and Mr. Stoops. My pocket is now empty and my garage is now full.
                        As a general rule I use mainly Meguiars products. I own some of the other companies stuff because I wanted to buy as a comparison. Never know if you don't try, right? So although you may see a lot of the other brands in the pictures...know those bottles are mostly full because I am too busy using my Megs stuff.

                        Pressure washer, detailing product cabinet, towels, spray detailers/waxes, general car care products, tape and tools.
                        Bucket is for dirty towels and wash mitts. And sunscreen (very important)


                        Top shelves of cabinets
                        Upper- LSPs, DAs (2 G110v2s and 1 Rupes 21)
                        Lower- Compounds (go to M105, M101, UC and D300), Polishes (go to M205, M81 not pictured) , clay, headlight kit, maxfire, and opti.


                        Bottom shelves of cabinet
                        Upper- 3" pads, small soft buff, small mf pads, interior pads and hand pads in top container. Lower container is DAMF in 5" and 6" and 7" soft buffs. Then wheel cleaners and behind that the interior detailing products.
                        Lower- Bulk products...mostly sprays other than #7 glaze which I bought entirely too much of. If anyone is in the area and needs some I am more than glad to share. Soaps and empty bottle storage next to bulk products. Foam cannon also lives here but not pictured.


                        Little closer picture of LSPs
                        Many items not pictured that I received recently. Most importantly Megs Ultimate Wax.
                        I am a chronic over waxer on my personal vehicles. This section of the cabinet gets USED.

                            Ironically you contributed quite a bit to my collection and knowledge. So...Thanks for sharing!

                              how do you all have so much stuff?
                              are you all professional detailers? It seems like it would take forever to use up all those products even if you wash and detail 2 cars every week.
                              I thought I had a big collection, but it is tiny compared to you all

                                Not a professional detailer, but detailing is my hobby. I have the Gold Class Car Wash, GC Quik Detailer, GC Quik Wax, GC Carn Plus Liquid Wax, GC Rich Leather Clean/Cond. (liquid version, not spray), Stoner's Invisible Glass, Mothers Chrome Polish, UWWA, Lexol (which I never use), Tarminator, AA Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner, Supreme Shine Protectant, UQW, Deep Crystal Rubbing Compound, Deep Crystal Cleaner Wax, Deep Crystal Carnauba Wax, PlastX and lots of Kirkland Microfiber towels, Mr. Clean gloves, sandpaper (I try to avoid using this as much as possible), a Zep Professional (lol) Spray bottle, a few Clay Magic claybars and a Carrand detailing vent brush.
