    That is the wash kit i used at catterick for exercise, make sure you replace the razor that comes with it with your own, unless you like ripping your own face off every morning on exercise.

    It comes with a folding toothbrush, also in your 1st week at ITC you will go to the dentist and they'll give you a little goodie bag, in there there should be a travel toothbrush wich i used for exercise.

    Haven't got a clue what the difference is between polish. It's upto you want to have 2 if everything, my whole platoon did, they didn't care if you had used it or not as long as it was correctly laid out.

    Getting two of everything so you have a set for locker inspections is one of the best bits of advice i have seen on here, as long as you make sure the original set is clean and not just left to fester. As for the polish i think its a matter of personal preference, personally id just use the standard kiwi for Combat Boots and experiment with prestige if you have any bulling to do.
