Car Cleaning junk

[IL_pilot]

OK, I was washing my car today, and decided to straighten out the garage. I began to take stock of how much crap I have in there to clean my car. Anybody else have this problem? You see some product in the store, decide to try it, then find something else? Or you like the new one better than what it replaced?

 

How much junk do y'all have in your garage that you use just for cleaning your car?

I'm still using the bucket of soap suds and a hose

 

I have some turtle wax too, but that doesn't help all the little spots behind the wheels... know of anything good to get them off a WHITE car? they are really stuck on there, and our water pressure here sucks.
