Take pictures before and after by shining a bright LED light on the area to show any swirl marks. Make sure you re-wash you car before you polish since you are still waiting for the box to arrive. You don't want to polish in any dirt/dust that has accumulated since you did the clay bar.

I have used lots of CG's products......most of them are pretty good. V7 is a good spray sealant, Silk Shine is a good dash/ rubber/ plastic conditioner, Pete's 51 is a good wax. The problem with CG's is they have so many products that it can get confusing. I have always had good service from buying online from them.

Best detailing thing I got was a Griot's 3" RA buffer. Great for places a larger pad won't get into, including the wheels.
As for the products, I've used tons of them and come to the suspicion a lot of them may be chemically similar because they work about the same. Autogeek actually owns several of the brands they sell. Being an old timer I still fall back on some of Turtle Wax's products. Been using their chrome polish almost 50 years and still haven't found anything works better.

Their kit was okay. However, I was certainly not blown away. No better than stuff I have bought at Pep Boys .
Good luck.

I have not used that one as I have the Porter Cable Dual Action polisher.

This weekend I will be testing out Mother's Speed Clay 2.0. If its as good as people say, then good riddance for actual clay bars forever!
