You see, I tried to simplify, as he will learn these things in increments as he sits-in on this, as well as other boards around the detailing community.
Hah, I usually dry as I go, so I guess I've lost touch with all the normal people! Haha, +1 for OCD.
Also, +1 on the grit guard, they are great - but again, I hve yet to find it OTC... Frustrating.
Yes, I mentioned the use for dawn - you may have gotten lost in my 'hand-crampingly' large post.
As stated earlier, most of these specialty products can only be found online, so I tried to make the best use of what he could find OTC, that was really the overlying guideline for my advice.
These are not necessarily what I use, as a professional hobbyist, but if he sticks around he will have an even more beautiful car than myself - as I don't even have time to detail my own!
So, that's why I recommend buying all of your products online, it's the only way to go.
(Yet, if you lived in a warmer climate, I'm determined that there would be more specialized products available OTC. Even in good ol, rain-trodden Portland, OR it's quite limited, and I'm forced to shop online if I want anything of significant quality whatsoever..)
PS I see you owned a '95 525i? What happened?
