estimated cost of all your detailing equipment :o
just wanted to see what the breakdown of costs looks like for you guys who do this for real for real. im more talking about stuff aside from just washing and drying materials like orbitals or sealants and other higher-end stuff
i just have stuff like good soaps, MF sponges/towels, mothers claybar stuff, a few waxes, tire gel, window cleaner, leather conditioners and small random things. i really want to get an orbital so i can learn how to polish :hs:

Pretty much everything sold on www.showcarsupplies.com
seriously. not a plug. I have a Porter Cable 7424 with Lake Country orange/white/black pads. i have 3-5 of each color.
I've got all sorts of premium micro fiber
303 products
Prima products
Meguiars
i really should take a picture, but meh
easily over a 1000 bucks worth of product/towels/machinery. of course, it was bought over a period of time. Anytime I replenish actual product (polish/sealant/clay/lube/QD's/etc) I'll buy a towel or two.
