QEW is available a Camping World and some other outdoor,camping/RV places. It was initially developed for people with RV's so they could wash at campgrounds and water restricted places. Some of Protect All's products are available at WalMart too but I've never seen QEW there. I've never seen ONR at any brick and mortar store. It sure would be nice to have it locally. QEW is less expensive at Camping World but I do recall seeing a buy one get one free at their website so that likely negates the discount at Camping World.
A quick check shows 2 16oz bottles for $10 plus shipping on ProtectAll's site and $7.99 for one bottle at Camping World. Bigger sizes available too. The cheapest I've seen ONR for is $10.99 for 32oz. The gallon jug of these products is the real way to go IMO.
Check www.campingworld.com for locations.
Maybe some of the websites we frequent to order have a storefront and are close to where you will be?


Stevo, if your stuck and need some before you visit, PM me and I'll order it and ship it directly to you in hope of some savings on the shipping.

Eric

Depending on where you’re visiting and how long you’re staying you may be able to get stuff shipped to your hotel.

If for example you were doing the SoCal beaches/Hollywood/Disneyland thing you’re within one or two business day shipping of Autopia and Excel Detail. If you’re heading to Hawaii check with Pakshak, etc.

I tried that with DP 4in1. It's extremely difficult to use because it smears and refuses to evaporate at all. I got so fed up I just stopped using it, so I can't even judge cleaning ability or slickness.

Yeah I wouldn't use QEW in a QD spray. I tried it once, wasn't impressed with the lubricity or finish left behind at all. The extra cost to get a good QD isn't that high (espicially if you go with CG's sprays, aroun 20 bucks a gallon) and the results are far, far superior.

The probably CG QD's is that yes they are like 22-23 dollars but with shipping it's 30 . Atleast that's how it is for me

CG's shipping rates are high. That's why I buy from Danase', so while I'm getting my CG QD's I can also get all my other stuff (including from other brands) in one order.
