Well, I didn't see this topic and have found it very interesting on other messages boards to see what everyone has, so I figure we could get it going here.

For all you detailers out there, post some pictures of your collection and your garage.

I'll take a pic when I get home.

I love these threads. Granted this isn't close to being all of my stuff, it gives you a pretty good idea.

Nice looking collection. Looks like you have everything you could ever need, haha.

Sad part is that isn't all of my stuff. I've got doubles and tripes of everything in that big picture of everything layed out as well as my Poorboy's stuff. Soon it'll have even more Poorboys stuff, LC pads, and a FLEX !! :D

I need to order a Flex too. My car will be here by the end of the money and I need it to polish it, but I've been saving to make sure I have everything for my down payment first.[8D]

Well since it's a new car the G100 might be powerful enough. I know those BMWs and Audis have some amazing clear coats that are nearly impossible to work on anything short of a Flex or Rotary.

Pfft, the metallics maybe. I have Jet Black, supposedly it gets fine scratches in it when the wind blows. [:'(] Oh well, it's a sacrifice I'm willing to take for a black car.

Me too, I live on a dirt road !![8D]

Haha, sucks! That must be a nightmare!

Okay, here's mine:

The goods, not a huge collection but a quality one I think. A lot of stuff I don't have extra of because I'm testing some of it out to see what I like. Top shelf is all microfibers, applicators, sponges, mitts, etc, the second shelf is the good stuff, and the third shelf is a mixed assortment of stuff that's laying around. Bunch of cheap Meguiars stuff.

And the lighting... don't get a 1200 watt light. It'll drive you crazy trying to make everything perfect. My GT needs to be polished, under the lights it looks horrible, but outside it doesn't even look that bad, haha.

And of course once I took the pictures I realized there was a package on the back patio with more stuff. Fade 2 Black is some amazing stuff, it was backordered so it shipped separately.

Haha, I just realized that I left my wax out there from the pics. :( I need to go get it and bring it back inside.

I'm not even going to post my pics of my washing mit and eagle 1 nano polish!

Although, I just bought a Porter Cable that got delivered today! Planning on building up my garage! :)

You should, that S281E deserves it. :D

Post pics here after you do.

Just got to use some new products tonight and want to encourage everyone to buy the APC+ from Meguiars and the Wool Wash Mitt from SM. Both can be bought at AutoDetailingSolutions.com. The SM Wool Wash Mitts are by far the best mitt that is produced in my opinion. Seriously buy some before you get your car. I promise you that you won't regret it AJ03SVT. ADS sells them for $23 for a three pack.:D

Hey now, lets get a bag or a tote to keep those Micro Fibers in!

Well, since you also asked for garage pics - here is my space where I park my babies and do all my work. Sorry, no pics of my detail products as they are all stored in the cabinets, out of sight and out of mind :)

This one says it all, only I have a key and a door opener [8D]

I may give it a try. Not a bad price.

Yeah, yeah, I know. I was wondering who would be the first person to call me out on that. [8D] I just set everything up last weekend and forgot to get something to put them in. Those are my cheap MFs anyway though. I need to buy a new good set before my car gets here. Those will soon be just interior and door jamb rags.

What lighting do you guys use? I have flourescent strips in my garage, but it is very hard to see at night without the natural light through the windows.

My lighting is in my pics. 1200 watts. I'd like to get another though. When it gets dark in my garage they only do so much, and one side of the car. I'd like to get one for each side of the car, and perhaps a smaller light to carry around with me.

My garage haswell over a dozenflourescent light fixtures in it (yes thats no joke), so its plenty of light. I have a retractable cord real with a nice multi LED light fixture on the end of it, so I pull it down and use it to inspect my work in between steps.

If I wasn't in an apartment I'd set up a bunch of fluorescent lights as well. Unfortunately I'm limited in what I can do.

I forgot to put my garage, well my shop ...
