I only buy retail if I really need something or just to try out a product or I can`t find it from my sources. Other than that I buy all my chemicals and supplies from a wholesale distributor.

Some stuff bought at retail has it`s purposes. E1 tire swipes, "insert company name here" tire foam for the wells, etc. I think you can get some of Megs Pro Line now at some CTs too.

Smaller amounts. (If you like to "just try" stuff, you don`t need a gallon, or even 32 oz.)

Handier. You might be shopping and wander on by the automotive section of a department store, whereas you would need to make a specific trip to the dealer.

Sometimes the retail products are more "idiot proof."

And maybe even the retail products might smell nicer/have a fancier packaging.
