Alright i just need a few things but im not sure what to pick up because i usually order everything online...
1. Good wheel/ tire cleaner, something that can possibly be used on engine bay as well...
2. Wheel polish
3. Where to get some good detailing brushes. Lug nuts, interior etc. (home depot, advanced auto etc.)
Thanks for the help

Just order online at detailed image if you must buy otc then stick with Meguirs i guess. i use their nxt wax on my daily driver. it seems to last the longest during the northeast winter months. i think you will be safer with the meguirs line over anything else.

NXT is pretty decent. Still, if it's price you're concerned about, professional products aren't that much more expensive.
For example:
NXT Tech Wax 2.0 at Target = 18.99
Klasse High Gloss Sealant at Autogeek.net = 19.99
or
Mother's California Gold Pure Carnauba Wax at Autozone = 17.99
Poorboy's World Natty's Blue Paste Wax at Detailed Image = 19.99

So, spend a few dollars more. You won't regret it. Plus, you will be supporting the enthusiast community with your business!
