General all purpose cleaner - Autosmart G101
Tar remover - Autosmart Tardis
Fallout remover - Number of different ones, all do the same job nothing really any better than anything else. Autosmart do one called Red7 which is as good as anything else but doesnt strip the lining of your nose/eyes/lungs...
Shampoo - Dodojuice Born to be Mild or Bilt Hamber Auto wash
Leather cleaner - DodoJuice supernatural leather cleaner
Quick detailer - Wowos Quick detailer
Wax - All depends on how much you want to spend. Some of the iWax's are very good and not too expensive.
Wheel cleaner - A combo of a fallout remover, tar remover, plus a good, non acidic wheel cleaner (I use Bilberry) should see them right. If they are are properly crusty, a very occasional use of an acidic based wheel cleaner such as Wonder Wheels etc won't hurt. If they are really, really, really bad, brick acid does the job but don't let it dwell, use plenty of clean water to rinse and do not get it on your hands.
The key to making a car look good is to do with the prep. You can spend lots of money on a top end wax but if you don't spend time on the prep, it won't look anywhere near as good as it could/should. I'm getting back into my detailing in a big way at the moment so its all about how much time/effort you want to put in. To be honest, Autoglym SRP does a decent job of filling if you haven't the time/inclination to do much prep.
