Now post up YOUR list!!!!
FMINUS,
you seem to use a lot of products from Chemical Guys. Their website seems to offer only gallon sizes of their liquid products. Is there anyplace to order from in smaller quantities?
Have you, or anyone else for that matter, tried their "Clayblock" that is touted as easier and better than traditional clay?
Cheers,
Phil

I have used the clay block and it does mar your paint. Its very aggressive. My clay of choice is the Ricardo clay from Canada.
In the states, I like Mothers and Clay Magic, they are both good for maintainence, and cheap, and readily available
