Greeting from Asia
I have been trolling on few forums for sometime ;)
Glad to become a new member here
Willing to explore more on Carpro products.

I have 2 cars to take care of
Black Mercedes
Light green Toyota
And I'm running low on my detail stuff

Any suggestions on product for new guy???

Thanks in advance

Kind Regards
Moldavite
 
Welcome Moldavite!!

Now when you mentioned you have 2 cars to take care of, you did not mention what your level of expertise was, or what products you've used before, or what your goals are. This would be a great start for us to assist you in making a purchase that fits your needs.
 
That was really nice & warm Welcome Thanks Guys and to Corey (the owner):D

Thanks for pointing out Dr_Pain :o
I had bought & used

Wash soap:
Meguiars GC (finished)
Sonax shampoo (finished)

CG Mr Pink (finished)
CG Matte wash (10oz)

Meg ult quik detail (finished)
Meg ult protectant (5oz)
303 AP (12oz)
Collinite 845 (24oz)

Looks like I'm screw...Lol

I sent my car for local detail shop few months back when they did 2 step polish, I took care from there. I had use a rotary (makita) twice to polish roof & bonnet while helping my friend at his shop and really enjoy the feel...
I'm planning to buy a machine and pads later when i start detailing as
part time.
I also have:
foam gun
pressure wash (seldom use)
Leaf blower

I recycle most my CG 16oz bottles and Meg/CG sprayer for future use.
What sprayer is better choice for Carpro product?

My most wanting list would be:
Microfiber madness crazy pile
Drive me crazy Jr
Microfiber incredimitt/pad

My car have collinite 915 on paint and 845 on wheels


kind regards

Well, it looks from your description that you have some basic knowledge, which is great! .... and it does seem that you have a solid grasp on the Meguair and Chemical Guy's line up. I don't think I will be too far in telling you that you will be pleasantly surprised in the transition from the rotary to the dual action (DA) polishers, and from the CG to the CarPro line up.
