Got a Package

The "stuff" I ordered to wash the MINI came in today.

I suppose I should start with my sources.  Here is my limited "car care" list of links thus far:
  1. Poorboy's World
  2. autopia
  3. Detailed Image
Sites 1 & 2 were referred to by a friend who meticulously cares for his Honda S2000 and Acura Integra.  While I've only scratched the surface of those two, a web search of "professional car detailing product reviews" landed me on site 3--specifically this page on how to properly wash and dry a car.  In fact, I bought everything on the "You'll need" list, which is the package I just got today.

I did have to go buy the 5-gallon buckets from Lowes Home Improvement, though.  I also bought a couple of storage bins with tops to store 1) the cleaning fluids, 2) the clean cloths, 3) the dirty cloths (until I launder them).

Ta daa...

I hope to give it its first wash this weekend--time (and weather) permitting.

Wish me luck!

PS - I think the Esoteric Wheel Care Kit referenced at the end of this article may be my next purchase.  :)
