What local suppliers do you find are worth checking out for detailing supplies? If the supplier is a chain please give a link to their online location finder, if strictly local, give the area.



I`ll kick off with Sherwin Williams Automotive Finishes. Just purchased more 3M PI-III RC and MG and some Acrylic Plus Attachment Tape, all at nicely discounted prices (Quarts of RC and MG were $18.38 and $25.31 respectively). I needed the Acrylic Plus tape to use this weekend so buying online would have been too expensive an option, after paying for for express shipping.



My local Sherwin Williams Automotive Finishes store seems to stock most 3M and Meguiars detailing products, in addition to automotive paint products. The link to their store locator is:

I use a local CARQUEST auto parts store. Actually since they are specialized theyÃâ‚â„re called Ãâ‚Å“CARQUEST Automotive Refinish SupplyÃâ‚Â.



I picked up my last MegÃâ‚â„s polish pad and some #80 from them. They also carry the 3M and a few other lines as well. The day I was in they only had #80 in a gallon size, but they made a quick phone call and said my quart would be there the next day.



Here is a link for the store locator:
