What are some of your lesser know detailing tools?
We all know about grit guards and microfiber cloths, but what are some of the uncommon detailing tools you use? Some of mine are meant for something entirely different than what I use them for, like the big blue brush (it's about a foot long and about 3" thick). It's meant for cleaning between the spokes of the rims, but it would never fit there. Because of its size, it's perfect for cleaning inside my wheel wells.
I'd never seen the glove until a few months ago, but it's great for getting into the nooks and crannies between the spokes on my rims. The labels on the other items are self-explanatory.

Cool stuff! I use this glove from DetailedImage for cleaning between wheels spokes and other tight spots. I find it very handy (pun intended)

Kneeling and bending over is for dummies. Work smarter, not harder! Plus it holds all of those nice gadgets and tools you're asking about.

I keep a Swiffer in my glove box which I use on my interior: dash, cluster etc. if it ever gets too dusty for my liking.

Bounce Fabric Softener Sheets. Wet with some detail spray and great for cleaning the occasional Bug Splatters and Debris.
