Cleaning and Detailing Supplies

I Just bought a 2002 360 Modena and was looking for advice on trusted sources for cleaning and detailing supplies. I found Griot's Garage www.griotsgarage.com, and it seems like the right stuff, but I could really use some advice from those with experience on this subject.

 

This is my source. Griot's has shaped themselves to also offer an array of technical and product support. It might sway my decision that they are located down the street from my office though...

 

I use a lot of their stuff as well. Currently they are having a 15% off sale and FREE shipping. Need to check my stock.

I use all of Griot's projects and think they are the best.

autogeek.net also has alot of products. I just purchased a Porter Cable dual action buffer, great machine.

I have used just about every detail product over the past 10 years. I haven't found anything easier to use, producing excellent results, than Adam's.

The Adam's line is a bit more low key and less mainstream than Mequires or the other stuff on Autopia. You won't see it around as much as other products, but the product quality is top notch, Made In USA and customer service is second to none.

We have a 48' Gold Rush trailer, painted 9 coats black, smooth side. Adam's is the only product we could find that produces the results we need in the time we have.

We just held a detail clinic on 15OCT in Mechanicsburg, PA and had about 8 Ferraris show up. Hopefully a couple of you guys were in attendance.

 

check out detailedimage.com for supplies, product reviews, and how-to's. There is a ton of great info on there available to everyone.

also, detailersdomain has the swissvax line up that has some great products from what I hear, I am going to be trying out some soon, but I doubt Ill be giving up my menzerna polishes for anything anytime soon.

not one place has every product you might want, so search around a bit.

I have and use the GG DA polisher almost everyday on the cars I do, its a solid machine, but the polishes on the other hand dont quite compare to menzerna IMO. The menzerna polishes just seem to work better, and produce a glossier, clearer finish. Only thing about menzerna, they dont offer 8oz sample bottles.
