Mobile Detailing Kit

I thought I would just show you the portable detailing kits I carry in my cars. I custom make them for each car and the products on them. The kit is small, takes up very little space and has most everything I need. I add a drying towel and extra MF to the outside pocket when I go on long trips.

Wow!

Are those the 2 ounce squirt bottles like Zaino provides? What about the small spray bottles---where can one get those?

More stuff to order ...

Enzett?

I can't make out from your pictures, what is in the first bottle on the lower left? It looks like "enzett" or something? What's it for? Any good?

Also, what are the little circular things at the top? Is it a little capsule of clay? A capsule of clay and its lubricant, and some MINI interior cleaner could make for a nice addition. Also, some Z-FX and some MINI wheel cleaner...

I love the labels, by the way...

The tin has some NeverDull in it. (the fiberous wad of material for cleaning chrome. I use it on tailpipe tips.)
I might add another tin for clay...good idea!

The bottles are all 2oz. I get them from a wholesale bottle supplier. You can also get them from places like REI camping suppliers and Containers and More stores.

The Einzette is a glass cleaner, one of my favorites.

In this particular kit I have:
Zaino Z6 and Z8 for quick detailing.
Mothers Protectant for general exterior dressing.
Eagle One Satin for tires.
Zaino Z9 and 10 for leather care and cleaning
Mothers Power Polish for scratch removol or touch ups
Mothers FX for quick finish patches.

The kit is small (as you can gauge against the size of the applicator). I can easily fit it in the side trunk compartment of the Mini if I want to.

I used to just carry A MF and QD, but this covers me for longer trips and more issues should they arise.

Besides......WHY NOT!

Wow, Brad! I wish I'd seen your great idea before I left on my roadtrip in April! I could sure have used just such a nice little compact Detail Kit for Wanda! Very well done!!
