This should help Simon. I've put in brackets what I'll use them for, I'm sorry if half of it is obvious.

Detailing Clay

Washing
Dodo Juice Born to be Mild (Straight forward car wash, good thing is this wont strip the wax off underneath)
Meguires Bucket with grit guard (bucket and grit guard, dono what else to say  lol)
Dodo Juice Wookie Wash Mitt (Best wash mit there is apparently)
Chemical Guy's Miracle Dryer (Soft as a baby's bum, wont scratch the paintwork and very very absorbant, one side of the dryer can buff too)


Polish
Dodo Juice Blue Roo Applicator (Puts on the polish  lol)

Glass Cleaner
Meguiars NXT Generation Glass Cleaner (Glass cleaner)
Dodo Juice - "Mint Merkin" Waffle Weave Glass Towel (Glass towel, better having a glass towel as it is designed to get rid of more contaminents etc)

Meguiar's Endurance High Gloss Tyre Gel (The gel, this stuff prevents streaks, drips/runs etc)
Meguiar's Versa-Angle Wheel Face Brush (cleaning brush)


Alloys

I think thats everything and I think I'm correct in my explanations albeit, very basic explanations.

you will find the megs tyre gel very hard to apply with the foam applicators due to its glooopyness

Honestly don't find it a hassle using the megs applicator - it makes it fantastically easy to apply to the tyres, especially if you don't stick too much on the foam to begin with!

Is all that really necessary?

[Dan J]

you dont have to have everything on that list but each item kevs got is to clean/polish/seal/wax etc, theres no product on that list that wouldnt have a job to do on a car.
plus thats quite a small list
you will find that products behave differently on each car due to there different paint and clearcote finishs, i have lots of various compounds/polishes,glazes,sealants and waxs dressings etc etc
