Meguiar's Dumps The Best Products They Ever Made!

That's right... in case you didn't get the word, Meguiar's dropped their beautiful new line of accessories. It's a crying shame, too, because the brushes are some of the best products Meguiar's has ever produced.

I have remaining stock on these great items:

Meguiars All-Surface Upholstery & Carpet Scrub Brush
Meguiars Tire Scrub Brush
Meguiars Versa-Angle Body Brush
Meguiars Wheel Spoke Brush
Meguiars Versa-Angle Ultra Plush Wash Mop
Meguiars Slide Lock Detail Brush
Meguiars Hair & Lint Extractor

Meguiar's recently flushed their inventory, so what you see in a few stores is all the stock that remains. These are great brushes, so don't delay. Once they're gone...

Re: Meguiar's Dumps The Best Products They Ever Made!

Thanks David.

I ordered 4 of the spoke brushes. Of course I had to get to the $75 amount to get the free shipping so I picked up some other goodies including the MF towels you have on sale. I personally find it challenging not to have a cart with the minimum $ amount when free shipping is offered... man I need help

Thanks again for the brushes as they are an excellent tool!!

THANK YOU!

I love that spoke brush and must admit to putting a few in my collection.

Re: Meguiar's Dumps The Best Products They Ever Made!

Found them to be rather dissappointing
The one that you could bend to any angle didn't have enough bristles and they should have made them with those bristles, lambswool and foam as well, interlaced

i think mainly because of distribution, though it could be they weren't selling well too...

Re: Meguiar's Dumps The Best Products They Ever Made!

THe wheel spoke brush is my favorite of the new line! Hopefully another company will produce one just as good or better to earn my business!

Re: Meguiar's Dumps The Best Products They Ever Made!

Ditto on the Dollar General, as twitch pointed out. I picked up the tire brush for $3 each and they had a box of Megs Gold Class sponges for $2 each. Since they are officially discontinued, I'll have to go back and pick up some more brushes.

FWIW the Dollar General (yellow store of the dollar-style stores) also had some of the Mr. Clean kits, and a lot of generic looking tire foam and shine. Might be worth taking a flyer on one of those for $2.50
