Any particular reason you don't carry Meguiars products? Whether you believe them to be good or not is not the issue - they are popular.

unfortunately I can't get my customers good prices on meguiars.

so why try to compete all I'm going to get is your too high on pricing.

also we don't carry anything we don't use on our customers' cars.

Since 105 and 205 are proven.

Not to say Adam's polishes (or w/e other brand you carry) aren't, though. It really boils down to preference and word of mouth.

Different vendors have different niches. If he can't make any money on Megs, there's no reason to carry it. If you want any products that he DOES carry, then by all means support him!

There are other vendors that take good care of us here - if you specifically want Megs, you will be treated right by those vendors that do carry it.

There's no reason to mail order NXT 2.0 and consumer grade Megs products (clay, QD, car wash) when every auto parts store and Wallyworld carries it. Even after adding sales tax buying it locally, the shipping on mail order can kill you. If you want the professional grade Megs products (105, 205, etc.), then you do need to order them from someone.

I'm certainly open to suggestions, and previously only used Megs and Mothers products that I applied by hand. I'm looking to take the next step in detailing and use a machine, etc., with better products. I'll take your recommendations since this is your area of expertise.

For the record, Clay Magic holds the patent on clay bars, and the only difference is the grade - there ARE different levels of aggressiveness.
