Why Stocking Stuffers Matter for Detailers
Detailers go through consumables faster than anything. Fresh microfiber towels, new applicators, and scrub pads aren’t glamorous—but they’re exactly what gets used week after week. These small gifts show thoughtfulness and deliver immediate utility.
Pro Tip: Stocking stuffers don’t need to be “cheap.” They just need to be useful and ready-to-use right out of the package.
Microfiber Towels: Always a Win
Ask any detailer: you can never have too many microfiber towels. They’re the backbone of safe, streak-free detailing.
- Everyday Microfiber Towels — perfect for general cleaning, interiors, and glass.
- Softer Than Soft Towels — ideal for delicate paint, coatings, and high-gloss surfaces.
- Orange Wash Microfiber — designed for safe contact washing without scratching.
Note: Replacing old, worn-out microfiber is one of the easiest ways to prevent scratches and streaks.
Applicators That Make Life Easier
Good applicators mean fewer streaks, less wasted product, and faster application.
All Blacked Out Applicators
- Perfect size for tires, trim, and interiors.
- Dense foam applies evenly without soaking up too much product.
- Machine washable and reusable.
Scrubbing Tools for Interiors
Interior detailing often requires more than just a towel. That’s where scrub pads come in.
Scrub Buddy Pads
- Safe on textured plastics, vinyl, and rubber.
- Work great with Complete Cabin Cleaner.
- Durable and reusable—much better than using paper towels.
