For those of you interested in learning more about the various products and cleaning techniques, I suggest you visit some of the detailing forums out there. I know several of you are already there, but for those less knowledgable, take a look.

It's a good kit, but you could probably just get by with the Klasse twins and the Pinnacle Wax. Crystal Mist is ok as a maintenance spray wax, but was streaky for me. I still prefer DG Aquawax or even Pinnacle Liquid Souveran Spray wax over Crystal Mistif you want to keep it Pinnacle. I haaaatttee Cobra towels. They lint like crazy on me. Uber and Pakshak towels for me only.

You should be ok though. I'm just nitpicking

Best Wax, Pinnacle Souveran or Dodo Juice Supernatural.
KAIO is sort of polish and protector, i usually apply it first and then the wax.

+1 on the Blackfire WD...only quirky thing about it is that it's very runny compared to most sealants, but it is very easy to apply and wipe off.

yeah, you have to use the right media for applying WD or you'll have lots of product waste. I use LC Red Hydro pads for when I apply WD.
