Default what you got?

this should be interesting... what is in everyones normal wash kit...... i use meguiar's nxt wash, black magic drying cloth, black magic duster cloth, windex and newspaper for glass(then rain-x), back to black trim care, meguiar's smooth surface clay kit(comes with QD and another microfiber dusting cloth and cleaner wax). i alternate between the cleaner wax and the meguiar's gold class paste. gunk engine cleaner, black magic wet tire shine and wheel cleaner. Interior: soup and water for inside of windows and black magic glass cloth, alternate from amorall orange and amorall protectant wipes, i use the dusting cloth inside too, and vacuum, thats about it. oh and a green leaf air freshener

I use what ever car soap I have, micro fiber towels to dry, if I wax I have been using P21S but I'm always trying new things, otherwise I follow up with a detail spray...again I'm always trying new products, glass cleaner, tire dressing (Car Brite), Meguires quick interior detailing spray (don't like interior dressing unless they're absolutely necessary, Lexol Leather cleaner/conditioner. Just picked up a Porter Cable polisher which is a nice addition to the kit.

Just for washing?

Automotive soap. Megs deep crystal is good, as is P21S or Z7
a sinful amount of sheepskin mits
a couple good buckets
a bottle or 10 of QEW for waterless days
bug & tar remover
clay
wheel brush
AIO
metal polish
some waffle weaves for drying
a toro leaf blower to help drying
stoners on glass
poorboys trim restore or 303 on trim
wheel sealant on wheels
303 or megs insane on tires
303 in wheel wells
simple green degreaser for jambs and engine
OCW in jambs
dress it right in engine

Waxes/sealants? I've probably got 30.

Best leather care (imo) is Zaino Z9 and Z10 to maintain good leather (smells nice) and Leatherique Pristine Clean and Rejuv oil to help dry leather.
