Microfiber bonnets are not used for final polishing, they are used to remove wax via DA. However, most people(including myself) remove wax by hand using a MF towel. I would recommend the arctic white edgeless currently on BOGO for removing wax or polish.

Wool pads are mainly used on rotary buffers, they do not work well with DA's. I would definitely cancel the wool pad from your order.

Here are some of the items on our wishlist. Feel free to comment on anything we forgot or don't need! We weren't sure about ordering the microfiber cloths by Cobra, alot of forum people don't like them!

Meguiars Water Magnet Drying Towel I personally would get the supreme guzzler
Meguiars Supreme Shine Microfiber Towels 3 Pack I'd go for the White MF Towels on Bogo
Lambswool 6 Inch Leveling Pad (1) I dont think you will need the lambswool pad
Cobra™ Indigo 6 Inch Microfiber Bonnets 2 pack Buy One, Get One Free! I remove wax and polish by hand, but then again your DA Polisher never gets tired...
Stoner Invisible Glass Cleaner
Black WOW Exterior Trim Restorer I'd go with Ultima Tire & Trim Guard
DP Auto Bath Shampoo I'd sub this for ONR
Dual-Action Hook & Loop Flexible Backing Plate 5"
DP Xtreme Foam Formula Auto Shampoo nice minty smell, good stuff!
Leatherique 16 oz. Kit Ditch this
Pinnacle XMT Pad Care Combo
Lake Country Hydro-Tech 5.5 x 1.25 Inch Foam Pads 3 Pack - Your Choice! two sets
Pinnacle Liquid Souveran™ Car Wax I'd look at DP-Poli Coat and or Collinite IW845
Wolfgang Concours Series Trio 2 (swirl remover, glaze, and sealant)
Griot's Garage 6 inch Random Orbital Polisher
Wolfgang Clay Combo
DP Microfiber Cleaner
Arctic White Edgeless Microfiber Polishing Cloth
Bug & Tar Remover Kit
-Pinnacle Foam Wax Applicator two of them
Autogeek Quart Foamaster Foam Gun with FREE BONUS
Cobra Blue Micro-Chenille Wash Mitt Buy One, Get One Free!
The Supreme Guzzler Waffle Weave By Cobra 20 x 40

Some things I'd add to that list would be:
Daytona Speed Brush It will break on you, but its still a great tool!
Deep Reach Wheel Brush Use this if the speed brush breaks on you.
Mothers Fender Well Brush
Mothers Contoured Tire Brush
Wolfgang Finger Pockets I love these things, dont ask me why, I just do!
Opti-Bond Tire Gel

In my opinion and I know others will feel different but I'd ditch the leatherique kit and get a Gallon of Meguiars APC+, some spray bottles and Wolfgang Leather Conditioner. The APC+ can be used pretty much any where, and its magical on tires/wheels. The Wolfgang Leather Conditioner is a heavenly thing, such a wonderful smell. I'd also use perhaps some Woolite diluted 6:1 for cleaning leather, make sure its the plain jane Woolite with no bleach.

Also for MF Towels, if you are a Sams club or Costco member check in the Janitorial Section, they have really good MF Towels in the 24pk/36pk (sams is 24pk for $10.88) and they don't scratch my car and they are all I use for wiping off wax/polish. I would check into ordering my stoners invisible glass directly from stoners, it will be cheaper, or ask AG to price match?

Just my .02 cents

I wouldn't bother with these. You can get the same thing at Home Depot / Lowes / Walmart / Target. For about half the cost & no S/H. There is nothing magical about them, they are just brushes with short and long handles

I do agree with the MEgs APC+. Good stuff and it has many uses. To bad you missed the big Meguiar's sale, this stuff was going for $6 a gallon.
 
my first order was so big, I went to work for them and still paying down the tab !!
 
id be ordering like crazy but . with twins on the way and a 3 year old .i have to order in small orders. but thats ok . love autogeek......:xyxthumbs:
