Detail addicts! Post your products!
Wanted to share my products, which I am extremely fond and confident of, and also wanted to see what else is out there and what you detail addicts are using!
All of my products are from Chemical Guys, have been using their products - and nothing / nobody else since my car arrived. I'm open to other products of course, but I just got hooked on these guys! Here's my set up

I use a LOT of Chemical guys stuff too, I can't really take a pic since my shit is all over the place, but I see a lot of similar products you are using.
One product that I really love that isn't so popular is the Synthetic Quick Detailer. I hate how some of the more popular detailers streak a lot and are a bit finicky and particular in how you have to apply them. The CG syn QD is just so damn easy to use and NEVER streaks for me, I love the stuff! It smells damn good too and I like the finish it leaves on a metallic black paint.

This is my set up. I was too lazy to take it all off the shelf... but i use anything from armor all to meguiar's. I really like meguiar's products the best. They're reasonably priced and offer great products. Also, in the blue bin, i have an extensive towel collection . Only the best towels for the E90

I have leather cleaner and conditioner and some foam sponges from Chemical Guys. Still havent used them yet , But I probably will sometime this week. I use turtle wax car wash soap and chenile wash mits for washing and Waffle weave towel to dry.

I really want to learn how to properly detail. What are some intelligent ways to learn without damaging my paint? What is some good equipment that I should research and invest in?

Pretty much just use Zaino wash, sealant, leather cleaner, tire dressing, clay bar and quick detailer. Every 6 months I do a full clay, wash, 2 to 3x seal session - then I wash every week and once a month I'll top it with some Meguiars Gold Class wax.

Same as 335oClock.. When I started wanting to detail I searched for a local reputable Detailing Shop and landed at Chemical Guys. Within 3 years I have collected many of their products and I have grown so much with them that they are now one of my sponsors
