    Guys, do you thinks you can make a checklist for the things you use for cleaning/detailing your cars?

    For example

    Washing:
    towel: Microtex MF
    Shampoo: 3M
    Drying towel...

    and so on until the tires

    kahit d complete po.... i think it could be helpful for newbies....

    - car shampoo
    - chamois (old) for door sides' wiping/drying

    2. For tires (washing)

    3. For interior (cleaning)
    - microtex towels - enough for damp wiping and separate ones for
    drying/buffing
