Any good Wax Stores in Ottawa?

I am looking for Natty's Blue or other cool wax brands like Wolfgangs in Ottawa. Or must i order this online.

Partsource and Canadian Tire does not carry them.

Those brands listed require order thorugh online. Give them a try online. You'd be surprised what else you can get online thats impossible to find OTC. You can always try carquest for some duragloss products...

If anything, you can find a vendor that sells close to you ( a couple states away) and you should be able to get your stuff within 1-2 business days with regular ground shipping.

I live in florida and I order thru detailcity and get my stuff the next day.

I checked CarQuest on Star Top road yesterday to see if they had any duragloss products, but they didn't.

MPS Industrial sells a lot of the Meguiar's professional stuff. They carry the 6.5" pads which is nice since I can't find any brand pad anywhwere else in Ottawa.

eshine is in Ontario, so they'd be fairly close, shipping-wise. They sell WG, Natty's etc.

Why don't you give www.eshine.ca a chance. They will have what you want and the service there is top notch.

As far as buying it locally, in my area I haven't seen those products on the shelf.

MPS industrial stuff should be it! They have the professional 3M stuff. Can't wait to talk to these guys tomorrow, it could be better than the consumer brand names.

My experience buying from eShine has been great as well, so if you need to order some stuff online, give them a look. They have great pricing too!

I mean, these waxes are sold to professionals and not to consumers as in Canadian Tire and PartsSource. If I got the exact terminology wrong then I am sorry but I refer them to Industrial waxes since they come in a sort of no frills contaxer labeled 3M or Presta. And I got it at MPS industrial, the store that you referred me to. So the key word here is Industrial for lack of a better term. lol

I hope that they are good.

Well the lady at MPS Industry was really arrogant. She claims to have never heard of any other product, S100, Nattys and so on and she said all I would need is 3M carnuaba wax. No other Sealant or waxes/synthetic or otherwise neccessary. 3M is the ****. She made it sound like all I would need to do is slap this stuff on and done.

Well ok, I bought it but I would like a second opinion of anybody has every used it.
