Where do you guys get your products from locally? Is it something that ya'll get online? I am low on my supplies, and want to move up from the Local auto parts selections.

Thoughts?

I use zainostore.com, autogeek.net, pakshak.com, autopia-carcare.com, and a few others that escape me at the moment. Southwest Autoparts in South St. Louis has some decent meguiars products. Also, username "littleredm" has a good, cheaper product that I was impressed with, but I cannot remember the name of it. He owns a local detailing shop, AG Detailing (www.ag-mobiledetailing.com/) and has some great advice.

For the most part, I've found it hard to find good products locally, so I just do a couple of big orders and plan ahead.

This is what I was figuring. I am tired of using junk 4-5 times a year to do something that can be done right the first time. I have 6 cars to do in the upcoming weeks, so it is just time to bite the bullet and do it right. No more hand waxing for me!!

I use Detailers Paradise online...had good luck with them. I haven't hand waxed a car in a few years. I put the the soft pad on the Porter Cable orbital and put it on with that....much quicker, and I don't waste nearly as much wax.
