So I just bought the UDM. Now i need pads and some products. the trouble is i just dont know which ones are right for me. here are the details. i know a lot about detailing, i have been doing for some time, but i have never used a machine before so this is like starting all over for me. plus i have always used over the counter products and last year i bought Zaino. i liked zaino but i want to try something new.

i would detail my car, which is an 05 xB, white. the car doesnt have really deep swirls because i keep it pretty well maintained. i would probably do my GF's car, which is in pretty rough shape. and thats it, not really looking to get into a buisness or anything just as a hobby.

so heres what i need. i need to know how many pads i would need and what colors, as well as sizes that would fit the UDM.

Products. I was thinking Klasse AIO, Klasse SG topped with P21S. Or maybe Menzerna, but im not sure which ones. or poor boys but again im not sure which ones ill need.

Basically i just want someone to say buy this, this and this with a link.

i hate spray on wax!! got some meguiars tech wax or whateverit is in the purple and green bottle. it said spray on evenly so i did. turns out i put way to much wax on and its taking me hours to get it off and get the excess off...aargh

What to use for the black trimming on the outside of the car, like the window edging and sunroof rubber seal?
