Wow, how much did u spend on them?

[Sofarsogood]

Can't remember all. Bought them over a period of time. The JW I got them yesterday. Cost me $90.

[Blackmafia]

What does it consist?

[Kazu]

wow.. i think should be about $200 for all that?

 

by the way, what is the recommended way to clean our detailing cloths, wash mitts, etc? using dynamo shouldn't be an issue right? mine are quite dirty, especially the mitts when i tried to clean the disc brakes...

[Sofarsogood]

I normally just handwash with light amount of detergent. But the mitt u used for the disc brake is the same one u used for the car? Not advisable leh.

[Sofarsogood]

Gen2 has a web site on it.

[Sapience]

what do you use the applicator pad for? JW prime?

[Zeefauna]

I use Dynamo for my Meguiar's MF Towels washed in the washing machine. I initially used hand and bucket to wash them, but washing machine is the most effective, and so it was adviced by Meguiar's Online Tech Help...

I'm a Meguiar's Junkie. No photo to upload here, maybe i'll take one if i'm out washing the car today.
