Default What's in your detailing kit?

What kinds of products do you use to keep your rides looking their best?

I'll start it off:

Meguiar's Deep Crystal System(all 3 steps: Cleaner Wax, Polish, and Wax)
Meguiar's Gold Class Polish
Meguiar's Gold Class Car Wash
Mequiar's Gold Class Leather Cleaner and Conditioner
Meguiar's Gold Class Quick Detailer
Meguiar's Hot Rims Wheel Cleaner
Mequiar's Hot Shine Tire Shine
Armor All Interior Spray
Black Jack Black Again
Fabreeze Auto Spray
Mequiar's Odor Neutralizer
Off Brand Glass Cleaner
The Absorber Shammy
The Original California Duster

<edit>
Gunk Bug and Tar Remover(Clear Coat Safe)
Zymol Detail Spray
Armor All Glass Wipes
<end edit>

I think that's it, I'll edit and add more if I missed anything.

Let's see what ya'll have.

My buddy owns a detail shop so I have him keep it clean. I hate waxing and all that

Wash: Mr Clean Auto Dry Pro series system
Wax: Meguiars
Tires: Black Magic Tire Foam
Inside: Black Magic

I think I might try the Black Magic wax as soon as I am finished w/the Meguiars....just to check out the difference.

I use whatever is cheap/on sale. Most of the time people compliment me on how clean the car looks.

I use Zip Wax car wash, Mequiars wax, and Black Magic 2-in-1 Engine Shine under the hood. I use different tire foams; I can't remember what I've got right now.

I've been using turtle wax ice spray wax as a quick detailer. Seems okay so far.
