I didn't recognize the glass cleaner in the kit, but Griot's has tons of kits. People seem to like that Stoner's Invisible Glass. I wonder how that stuff impacts the wiper blade efficiency and the rain-sensor operation?
I guess I need to get some of the smaller microfiber towels for wax application/removal. The big one I got is probably only really well suited for drying. Thanks for the head's up on the pre-washing of the towels.

I had ordered the glass cleaner separately a year or so ago. I need to order some more.
I got the 4 drawer master assorment rack and drawer. It has come in very handy in the last couple of years.

I use all the Zaino wash/wax products. If you talk to the fanatics, Zaino is pretty much acknowledged as the best. The key thing is to make sure you let it cure thoroughly (overnight).

After you get your windows nice and clean, try Gel-gloss. It will make them silky smooth, rain will sheet off and your wipers will have much less friction to deal with.
I get mine at Home Depot.
You can also use it to shine metal, polish fiberglass, remove light scratches on plastic and light colored cars.

I just used the Zaino kit for the first time this weekend. I tested it on my wife's Subaru first and WOW what a difference! The clay bar step is the hardest, but seems to be the most important. I can't wait to try it on my Bimmer!
I also use micro fiber towels from Wayne's Towels (they are great quality), Eagle all wheel and tire cleaner, and Invisible Glass. I use a California Duster between washings.
The best trick is the Swiffer Duster! I keep one in my trunk and use it for the interior all the time. The duster has a plastic handle and a replaceable feather dust pad. It easily cleans hard-to-reach spots like vents.
There's my $.02...

There's something about the swiffer duster. I've read another post from someone who used it on his rims and was very enthusastic.
