• Are The Pads Included In Performance Tool Car Detailing Kit Good Enough For Polish And Wax?
  Diane, the detailing kit # PT39NJ includes two hook-and-loop pads that are great for applying polish and wax. They attach to the included backer pad, which snaps right into your drill. For standard car detailing on your personal vehicles, these will absolutely do the job. If you don't have product to put on the pad yet, you can pair them with something like Griot’s Complete Compound # 349B110P for correction, then finish with their Liquid Gloss Poly Wax # 34911013 for shine and protection....

• Is Performance Tool Detailing Kit Worth It If You Don't Have A Power Drill?
  Frank, you can still get a lot of use out of the # PT39NJ. The wash mitt, microfiber towels, detailing brushes, and vent brush all work by hand. The drill-compatible brushes and pads are nice add-ons if you ever pick up a cordless drill, but you’re not locked out of using the rest. Do you already have some basic wash supplies, or would this be your starter kit?

• Does The Green Duster Brush In Detailing Kit PT39NJ Work Well For Truck AC Vents?
  Absolutely, Leo. That double-ended green duster brush that comes in the detailing kit # PT39NJ is perfect for vents. Both the soft bristles and microfiber ends get into tight slats without bending or damaging them, and is great for knobs and seams. I’ve even seen folks use it on blinds or other random hard-to-clean areas. Do you want me to suggest a quick interior protectant spray to pair with it for longer-lasting results?

• Are The Drill Brush Attachments For Detailing Good For Cars Only, Or Ok For Boats And Showers?
  Brian, you’re thinking like a detailer already! These brushes in the # PT39NJ kit are multi-surface - great for carpet, fiberglass, tile, and even boat upholstery. A lot of folks use them on RV showers, too. Just be mindful of the surface: soft bristles are safe for most, but always test in a small spot first.

• Can Bristle Brush Attachments Be Used On Car's Clear Coat With Cordless Drill?
  Jason, you’re right to be cautious when using the Performance Tool Car Detailing Kit with Power Drill Compatible Brushes # PT39NJ.

• Which Detailing Brushes Will Be Good For Getting Into Seams For Detailing RVs And Cars?
  Yes Paul, the five round red/black detailing brushes with handles in the # PT39NJ kit are great for seams, trim edges, and around hardware where impurities and buildup can collect. I wouldn’t use them across broad painted panels, but for those stubborn crevices they’re perfect.

  Terry, this one is built solid. The backer pad in the # PT39NJ has a 1/4inch hex fitting for your drill and a heavy-duty hook-and-loop surface. Once you press the pad on, it holds firm even under pressure. That’s a big upgrade over generic foam pads that tend to slip.

• Can You Wash Microfiber Towels That Come In Detailing Kit PT39NJ Or Will They Fall Apart?
  Heather, they’ll hold up well. The two microfiber towels in the # PT39NJ kit are machine-washable and can soak up 10 times their weight in water without scratching your paint. Just avoid using fabric softener - it clogs the fibers. Many folks keep one towel dedicated to drying and another for polish buffing. Do you already have a microfiber collection going, or will these be your first? Can never have too many!
