We just got the wifey a '13 Civic and I just sold my '04 TL so I'll likely get a '13 Accord. I'd like to keep the paint looking nice on these and have been reading for a week or so now on detailing products, etc. Looking for quality products, but don't want to spend a ton. Here's what I'll need:
Wash (or wash/quick-detailer/etc)
1. Ultima Waterless Wash Plus (UWW+)
Makes a large amount and is supposedly great for washing and for using as a QD. Garry Dean's Infinite Detail Juice looks great too, but is a tad more expensive
Microfiber Towels
Likely going to purchase everything from MicrofiberTech.com. They seem to be well liked and a great bargain.
Mine are trashed so I'd like to put them on wheel duty and pick up some new ones. I'm assuming a bunch of 16"x16" will work fine for washing and QD (obviously not the same towels lol). Just not sure where to find good towels without paying too much. My main questions are what towels do I need for drying. Do I need a larger towel with a really high GSM or would smaller 16x16 towels work just fine? MicrofiberTech has a 10pack of 530gsm towels for $30. Seem like pretty solid towels for drying and QD. I guess I need a few 'waffle-weave' towels for the glass too huh
Claybar
Mine is done for, so I'll need another for sure. Not too sure about which to pick up. Both cars will have new paint so I don't need something too aggressive.
Wax/Sealant
