Online source for detailing products?

Are there any online stores that have good prices/service for detailing supplies like wax, clay, towels, etc? Retail prices are insane...

Yea, that's where I got my stuff from. Since they are in Florida, 3 day shipping gets here next day

They have a sale going on right now. 15% off. Sale ends Saturday, June 30, 2007

Also, there is another webite mentioned here. I'm sure someone will chime in. autodetailsolutions.com?

Lots of them out there that are pretty decent... Personally, I've dealt with:

Chemical Guys
Auto Detailing Solutions
Premium Auto Care
Wax Station
Finish Kare 1
Auto Geek
Meguiar's
Auto Wax Company
Zaino Store
Superior Car Care
PakShak
5959 Auto Design
Wax-It
Amazon
The Best Wax
Highway Shine Company


That's off the top of my head... there are oodles of others out there. I've honestly not had a 'very' bad experience with any of the above. A bit of hassle with one or two but, nothing really out of the ordinary.

Personally, I prefer to deal with the 'little guy' when it comes to buying products (even if I'm buying the 'big guys' product). The little guy always seems to go way out of their way to make sure that their customer is happy. They understand the importance of customers and tend to dance when they ask them to dance - within reason of course.

I have been along time Zanio users on my Redfire mustang, Until earlier this month at Carlisle where I was introduced to Adams' Polishes. They were ONLY working on black vehicles in direct sunlight. Since my truck is black , this caught my attention. There prices are very reasonable

Any good ones that ship to military APO addresses? I'm having a real hard time finding any place to buy a clay bar and simple cleaning soluitions. They don't carry any of this stuff in England and the base has a very limited selection of and it's mainly Turtle Wax and Armor All.

Why not have it shipped to someone you know in the states then have them send to you? May cost more but you get what you need.
