Exclamation Premium Car Care .com Loses Meg's?!

I don't see this company carrying Meguiar's anymore?

RP, do you know what happened?

I don't much from this company since I live on the west coast, but I have had very good success with

www.autopia-carcare.com

slippy,

The bad news..........

Yep, Premium Auto Care has gone through some restructuring as of March 1st. Not sure if Dwayne is going to handle Meguiar's products anymore.

The good news............

AutoGeek has a nice selection of Meguiar's products. If you are a member of the Detail City forums, you can still get the Detail City 10% discount. Here's a link:

Not even three minutes ago I was looking at this exact thing...

It's odd that he's gone from wanting to be the #1 online retailer for Meg's to not having it on the shelf at all.... very strange/disappointing indeed.

Too bad he doesn't have a close-out sale on any remaining product.

Thanks for the clarification Boss. I'll take a look at autogeek, but it's hard for me to wait so long to get my stuff on the west coast from FL, lol.

I hear ya! Keep in mind that Premium is in FL too. AutoGeek's service seems to be as good as Premium's.......... at least so far.

It was news to me too ROUSH... I'm VERY disappointed.

Oh well...


Autogeek, from what I'm told, is VERY good to deal with. If Boss gives them a thumbsup, I can assure you that they're good to deal with...

I know autogeek.com and properautocare.com are both great places b/c I have ordered from each of them. These are great east coast companies.

For those folks on the west coast, I HIGHLY recommend www.autopia-carcare.com

I have had incredible results with these people and they have even gone above and beyond on packaging and shipping for me! They also have lots of info if you need it.

Hope this helps.

www.meguiars.com


They ship out of Nashville so, depending on your location, it may or may not arrive quick...

Also, try mentioning that you're a member of MOL and you may get free shipping or similar...

Yep, you can always order through Meguiar's.

You can also check and see if there is a Meguiar's professional retailer near you. A lot of Automotive paint stores carry the Meguiar's Pro line and can order just about anything you want. I have two of them about 10 miles from my house....... makes it handy!

Here's the link:

http://www.meguiars.com/DealerLocato...r_template.cfm

Make sure you select "Professional Products"

But, I confirmed that they no longer have the SW Arnold wash mitts.

I'm in the process of securing another vendor for those. I believe that the replacement at PAC will be the Eurow mitt. Having held both, I'm going to hunt for the Arnold mitt...
