If you could only use two or three product lines for all your detailing needs, what would you choose?

I think that as far as paint correction goes you can’t beat the Rupes complete system. As for chemicals, the P&S lineup is hard to beat especially for the price.

I exclusively use the RUPES system. Slowly I have been diving into and loving P&S products. They work and are priced reasonably.
 
If I had to pick, it would be an easy choice, Griot's from top to bottom. Other than long term coatings, I wouldn't need to buy any other brand.

I'm surprised griots doesn't have a water based option for tire dressing...seems like that and coatings are the only thing that is missing

We certainly use more than 3 brands in the shop... realistically through probably about 90% of our machines, pads, polishes, and chemicals are supplied by only 3 main brands: CarPro, Meguiar's, and Rupes.

CarPro: Almost their entire line is gold. Only products we don't really use are Immolube, Fixer, and FogFight.
Meguiar's: Does anyone else's abrasive technology even come close? M100 is probably our most used compound of all time.
Rupes: I think at last count we have about 14 polishers... mostly Rupes. Love their $95 flat rate repair program. Makes my life much easier as my bin of "tools to repair" seems to fill at an increasing pace as the business grows.

I personally mix and match and find the best of what i can find... because of this I spend more money and sometimes don’t get to finish products. I think sticking to less brands looks more visually appealing to me and will help me stay organized. My main goal is to be more consistent in results... although i know every car has its own issues. I do want that synergistic approach or close to it.

I hear you on this. It's why I've bought less and less products over time. I have WAY too much stuff!

I'm a bit of an oddball, judging from all the posts

My three (for chemicals):

- Poorboy's World
- Blackfire
- Griot's

My Blackfire line up has been expanding, and as much as I like Megs, I'm using it less and less

I don't have a ton of Griot's stuff, and don't expect to down the line. But what I have tried, I'd feel confident in most of their products.
 
Griot's and 3D. That covers pretty much everything.
Like everyone else, I use many different brands.
 
I’m used to go with Mckees in these threads, but due to my support of PBMG, and quite frankly trying these new products and looking at their prices, I’m going to switch to the new DP as my most extensive favorite. And I suspect they have more coming and gallons coming... on an uprise.

Detailing Products (DP)
Polish Angel
Wolfgang

Note that I always have had a special place in my heart for Pinnacle and PBL (these two got me really wanting to explore top tier products), but WG has surpassed them due to their new ceramic additions (and they were previously neck and neck anyways with DGPS, Fuzion, etc.). Ceramic additions I really like include SiO2 Paint Sealant, the SiO2 wash and the SiO2 waterless wash)
 
CarPro - Too many standout products to not be at the top of my list.

Griots - I'm big on all their newer stuff I've tried.

McKees, Meguires, or Optimum - All three have more than one specialty product I would want to have. I'd have to think hard about which would fit in best with the other two.
 
I'm a big fan of Griots, Bilt Hamber and the final one would probably be between Meguiars or Adams.

CarPro has many great products but they're a bit pricey here.
 
Duragloss, Meguiars and Poorboys World
