My top three detailing items are:
1. Porter Cable polisher
2. Micro Fiber towels
3. A water softener for my hard water, eliminates the concerns about water spots when washing the car.
Your car looks fabulous. Makes me jealous knowing no matter how much prep work and effort I put into my pewter paint, it will never look that good. Oh well.

Porter Cable 7424 is a random orbit sander/polisher that everyone has used with amazing results. This page should be helpful:

Thanks for the link Lawman!
Hey Blu Beast, will you run through the steps in order for us novices. And by Z2 I assume you are talking about Zaino? It's all I have ever used for my car. I assume you used the Menzerna in conjunction with Z. Also, where are you guys getting this Menzerna, never heard of it. Is it a two stage product similar to Zaino? I have a black car and the swirls in the hood and spoiler are driving me crazy!

I use Lake Country pads, Menzerna and Poorboy's polishes, and Pak Shak towels.
