I haven`t been following closely these two companies for the past 2 years and suddenly I see 3M in the UK is Meguiar`s distributor and when I need a Meg`s product in Canada that wasn`t being stocked my Meguiar`s Canada I was given a phone number to 3M Canada and low and behold the answering machine says such and such the Meguiar`s rep at your service !



I know 3M has the OEM market and Meg`s the retail market and now 3M is going out big times in the UK with the new line of retail product`s with Paul Dalton as their cover boy !

I find that video above "strange" the guy states I don`t know much about the world of detailing, but I`m going down to see how he uses OUR products?

Not only are they in bed together but they are procreating.

Heh heh, that`s good :chuckle:



There`s probably something witty I could post about how Edge is under the covers with `em too but it`s not coming to me....

So I guess Paul likes Zaino, then? :D



I like that the 3M guy didn`t seem to know what the GT2 was! :chuckle:
