Meguiar's makes some great products for every aspect of the detailing process... M105 and M205 are some of the most popular polishing liquids on the market, and for good reason.

As far as pads go, I always recommend the following to cover all your bases.

Meguiar's Microfiber Cutting Discs for heavier cutting
Lake Country Orange Light Cutting Pads for moderate cutting / polishing
Lake Country White Polishing Pads for general polishing & finishing
Lake Country Black Finishing Pads for fine finishing

I concur...all the Pads Zach mentioned are minimum must haves, I like to keep a couple of Lake Country Reds to apply my favorite wax/sealants...

OP what machine are you using?
