Lol, I look at it as a yearly savings plan.

I forgot to mention I also got a 144Ct pack of Wonder Wafers. Personally I think those things are awesome!
 
VERY NICE first order! :D (Although I'd swap out that 105 for 101 in a heartbeat!) ;)

Yeah, just think how much interest the uncle makes all year long on all that money, and what kind of a savings plan is it if you get it back and spend it anyway? That's more like a deferred annuity.
 
I'd change the title if I could. Anyways Added a few more things to the list I forgot.

128 oz. Chemical Guys Bug Bugger
3 Inch Meguiar's Unigrit Foam Interface Pad x3
3 Inch Meguiar's Unigrit 1500 Sanding Disc 50 ct.
3 Inch Meguiar's Unigrit 800 Sanding Disc 50 ct.
3 Inch 3M Hookit P1000 Finishing Disc 50 ct.

IF any of you are familiar with Wonder Wafers I think they are awesome for keeping a long fresh scent in a car. And they are super cheap and you just put one or two under the seats. They have a ton of awesome scents.

WONDER WAFERS INTERNATIONAL®
 
NICE, I got my refund and went small time crazy compared to you at the Chemical Guys store that's a few cities away from me. I wish I could have afforded half of your list :D
 
Nice order. :xyxthumbs:

I can't tell you how many times the Meguiar's 105 has saved me.
However when you try it you may or may not find problems with it gumming, heavy dusting but again the stuff is awesome but I now use Wolfgang Über Compound because it's much easier to use but just last weekend I had to go back to the 105 because I wasn't getting enough cut with the Über.
Guess its best to have both.

Anyway hope you enjoy your order and getting it soon:dblthumb2:
 
Nice order! I would really recommend putting a 5" backing plate on your GG6 and using 5.5" inch pads instead of the 6.5" pads however. Make sure to post some pics when it all arrives!

I also just dropped about 2k retail last night on my wholesale account with the vender I use. Going to be like X-mas at the end of the week!

I couldn't agree more!!!

Get a couple of 5" backing plates then a boatload of five and a half inch pads! Considering they are much cheaper you can buy several more pads per each $100 investment.

Speaking of pads; pick up one or two of the Meguiars 5.5" Microfiber Correction Kits. They come with the smaller backing plate, cutting pads as well as finishing pads, plus you get a bottle of D300 and D301 with each kit and a Megs detailing apron too boot. :D (Their non-clog squeeze bottles are GREAT all by their selves, but having D300 & D301 is something you'll be glad you did. ;)

Also make sure you get Meg's APC+ as well as regular APC.

And you also want to get the red non-acid wheel cleaner.

The more of those Meg's sprayers you can get, the better. My wife and even my daughter (for her place) have taken quite a few to put both versions of APC in and use them everywhere.

So I called AutoGeek and revised my order a bit. They didn't have gallon of M105. So I got a 32oz of M101 to try. Also got a 5" backing plate and changed my 18 6.5" pads to 5.5". Thanks to the great customer service I had no problems whatsoever.

I already have 2 gallons of the APC+ and with the new steamer I don't think ill use the stuff as much.

Thanks for the input everyone!
 
Good deal! You just saved yourself a lot of headache.

:iagree:

Your going to love working with the 5.5" pads! Only time I ever throw a 6.5" pad on is for applying wax or sealant.
Grab some Folex from Depot or Lowes to work along side your new steamer on fabric and carpeting!
 
Folex! I would go for a brush attachment for your 6. Or a drill brush. They will make cleaning tires and carpets less laborious
