    Equipment to start?

    I looked at steamers but I have to watch more vids. I will look for the brushes set also. I was going to look around for towels to wipe down and stuff but you just made that easy for me...lol..I figured the 6 towels above would be good for drying after a wash as well as applying anything.

    3401 flex BP?

    It's not just the 4" plate... It's the adapter thing they make for it...I didn't want to pay $50 for a 25 foot cord.. I can buy an extension cord cheaper. But they are sold out and on back order for the adapter.
