Default D/A plus some detailing stuff for xmas- ideas

My Mrs has decided to buy me some cleaning/ detailing stuff for xmas

So far it looks like a Meguiars G220 kit and some wheels

Any ideas or recommendations of what to get with it to do my 8 (paint & screen) would be very much appreciated, and where the best (online) deals are etc?

Thanks all

Richard. (up until then a hose, (2) bucket, wash mitt & wax person....)

Missed this first time,

I commend Detailed obsession. Gareth is very helpful and supplied the detailing kit prize for the A8meet in support of H4H. Send him a message and mention A8oc he'll recommend some products based on the colour of your car.
