I finally have a garage!!!!

Ok, I know this isn't purely detaling related but I just moved from the Washington, DC are to the San Francisco Bay area. In DC my black daily driver Camaro did not have a garage, and would often be dirty as soon as I finished washing it. Admittedly, I'm a little obsessive/compulsive - so this was a bad combination. If I wasn't washing the car, I was getting ready to wash the car - which often felt like I was pissing into the wind.

Fast forward to the present - I now have a garage! I'm so excited and have finally gotten it to a useable state and thought I would post some pictures. I washed my car two weeks ago, and it is still pretty darned shiny . . . it's unbelievable. This is what having a garage is like!?!?! So awesome. Anyways, here are some pictures of my new detailing setup. I still need to procure a Master Blaster, and actually will no longer be using my Metro Vac n Blow

http://www.adamspolishes.com/p-398-a...-metrovac.aspx

(I've got that Hoover Canister vac on the wall now) so if someone wants a good deal on one just PM me.

And before I'm labeled an Adam's zealot, notice I do have A COUPLE non-Adam's products on the shelf (namely Iron-X, man that stuff stinks like a bucket full of A-holes).

The blue tote is full of my Adam's microfiber towels, and the green tote has my PC and Adam's pads. Dylan, I know I shouldn't be storing them in the tote, it's only temporary as I try to find a proper drawer setup to use in the white rack.

Enjoy!

if your weather is like texas i would tell you to get those products out of the garage. Heat caused my leather clearner or windshield cleaner to evaporate!

I'm gonna have a garage soon also! Hopefully its half as organized as yours.

I like the house phone in the garage as well. Thinking ahead.

Awesome! I wish I had that kind of space!

You've got a great setup going there.
