    My sister lives and works in these areas: SW16 and SW17.

    What good shops are in these areas to get detailing supplies?

    I`m mostly after polishing pads and microfiber towels.

    Meguiar`s UK have a stockist section on their new website. This currently shows 3 stockists in your sister`s postcode areas.



    I guess if they stock Meguiar`s that they`ll be into detailing supplies in a bigger/more specific way than Halfords and the like.



    Hope that helps.

    Welcome to Autopia Megs



    The Meguiars yellow pads are nice but for the interior I use dish washing pads, these are also useful for tyres and exterior plastic moldings: cheap to buy and you can just bin them once they are used.



    As for MF towels, the best ones I have found can only be bought online but it is worth checking household stores as well as the motor shops

    "our Yank friends " (Yankee is OK) Yank has a compleatly different meaning in US
    What gets overlooked too often is that one must be a student before becoming a teacher.

    Myles, it should be your boss who needs to watch what he says, after all, he is in your country.



    I think people very quickly adapt to the changes in language so I would not worry about it







    Gez is quite right, Alex sells some very good quality products and I would have no hesitation in recommending him.

    I live in the US and when I hear a guy from the Uk say "yank" I assume he means north american. I think that if I heard him say "yanker" that would be different, but, really, he`d probably say "wanker".
