So what's the one product you keep finding yourself needing to buy again and again? I'm not necessarily talking a specific brand, but something that you run out of a lot or need's to be replaced a lot?

Sure, waxes/sealants and tire gels can be expensive, but usually last a decent amount of time.

Microfiber towels can add up the bills if you aren't careful, but my vote goes for clay bars. Once there used a few times, it's hard for them to be cleaned.
 
Tire products, have 5+ vehicles (cars/suv's) so I go through tire stuff very quickly. Reason I switched to Armor All Foam topped with Armor Extreme Gel. Excellent durability and looks, and cheap and readily available at auto stores.

Probably a tie between it (tire products) and clay bars, clay bars can add up, and their not cheap otc either.
 
I'd have to say gasoline. ;)

But assuming you meant detail products, I'd have to say vinyl/rubber protectant. 303 (the brand I've been using) isn't exactly cheap, and I worry about the Florida sun, so I probably use more than most (4 cars & 2 sit in the sun all day).
 
i find that i spend alot of money on p21s gel wheel cleaner. i have found nothing that works as well, but as a part time pro detailer i find it really expensive.
 
I don't clay that often. I do it two or three times a year maybe. What I do often is wash my car. So, I buy a lot of car wash soap and wheel cleaner.

I find myself spending a lot on car wash shampoos. I have a lot and keep wanting more. Pinnacle and Poorboy's are my favorite.

Why don't you buy it in bulk, then? 1 gallon - $70...not cheap...Still is one of the most expensivest shampoos.
