Black & yellow bag is DP. Black & red bag from Griots.

Now to CVS for DI water.
 
Dang! Looks like the textbook Geekers Road Kit. Nice setup.
 
Love that Wolfgang bag (I believe its the Wolfgang bag) I have it in the autogeek colors and logo, I'll have to take a picture of my setup when I get home
 
Lol. Dude I've never seen before just came up to me & saw my gear and asked if I'd detail his car...

Dude: "You detail cars?"

Me: "Just my own".
 
And what that dude saw was probably one tiny percentage of what you have at home in your garage but to him, and most other non Geekers, he saw what he thought was a full detailers set up! Love it!
 
Nice setup

Is this a Bavarian flag next to your license plate?
 
Nice.

I would post up a pic of my setup if I had one. I have no life and don't go anywhere so thats a no go for me.

Dude has no idea about Swanic. LOL
 
A couple of these Griot's Garage:
"Compact, Collapsible Wash Buckets...",
always come in handy when I'm on a trip:

I carry the basics:

Needle nose pliers (darn hotels always remove the handles)
hose
1/4 turn plastic valve for the hose end
bucket
car wash soap
2 mitts
wheel cleaner
wheel brush
2 dozen MF towels
2 waffle weave foam core drying towels
spray wax
glass cleaner

Gee, that seems to be a longer list than I thought for the basics.

I wash about 6 AM, before most people are up and moving around. I usually move the car afterwards so they don't know who used the water.

I'm driving about 3 hours away and only staying for 1 night. I'll probably bring some Eco WW and MF towels to get the bugs off.
