I like to use Mothers clay bar kit. I found that the meguiars and other brands clay bar kits leave real fine scratches on the paint. I havent had any trouble with the mothers bars. I think they trap the dirt a bit better and keep it from scratching the paint. I like the meguiars NXT gen car wash and the NXT gen 2.0 liquid wax. Best wax Ive ever used, bar none. I like eagle one wheel cleaner and black magic tire dressing. I like how the eagle one wheel cleaner takes the dirt out of the deepest parts of the tire sidewall. It just runs right off. The black magic dressing doesnt last as long as other dressings but its not as greasy as other dressings ive tried. I have heard good things about mothers tire dressing tho, but I cant seem to find it in the stores. For window cleaner I use sprayaway. It comes in a white and blue metal spray can. Best window cleaner ever. There is no debate on that. I use meguiars interior cleaner in the black bottle. I really like that stuff alot.

I ended up using the Meguiars detailer with the mothers clay bar because I couldnt stand the cinnamon smell of the mothers detailer. It worked pretty good for me. It actually worked better than the area I started with using the mothers detailer with the mothers clay. The mothers kit is actually cheaper than the meguiars kit also. Hey john, have you used any of the clay kits in your link? If so, what did you think of them?

I have tons of product in my garage, mostly boutique stuff. I'm a sucker for the latest and greatest detailing products, but since I own my own detailing business it makes sense for me to look out for new stuff that helps me get the job done just as good but in as little time as possible.
