Local to me. C.A.R. products in holyoke.

He could probably give you someplace closer. I`m not sure what I did with his contact info, but it wasn`t too hard to find on their site.

I saw something about that on their site. Do you have any info on it? Price? They provide the panels and supplies?

**atticdog** · 07-21-2005, 01:56 PM

Its $30

they provide everything

**Terran** · 07-21-2005, 07:10 PM

**atticdog** · 07-21-2005, 07:33 PM

The bufefer class is a good take in..They teach you basics.. then you refine it. The store has some good products in it and reasonable. I get all my Hi-Temp, Collinite and Mequiers pro stuff there. Plus he has his own brand there..Its kind of a chemical guys place..

They seem to mix there own stuff out back in the wharehouse..Also if you go there get the tub of wax called Carnuba Bay..It`s there own brand I believe..VERY nice wax..very wet looking..it is about 15.00 for a big tub...worth it..not a long laster but a show off wax it is..

I live in Brimfield so it takes me 25 minutes to get there..or after work its 10 minutes..

Again..there home name products are not bad at all... Don`t forget to hit the closeout table find some good deals on it...

Have Fun There..if you need directions let me know..easy to get to off the pike...

PS...Toml if you check out some of the marina`s in Beverly- Salem area you will find some collinite for sure...

Western MA checking in here. Small town called Ware, out near Springfield. I would be interested in a GTG sometime. It`s just nice to be able to get in touch with other Autopians in the area!!!

Thanks Al. I did check a couple marine supply stores in my area. One had Collinite, but they didn`t have the IW. I will check with the regional distributor.

Signed up with them yesterday. Thanks for reminding me about it :thumbsup:...should be fun.

All you easterner`s, I`ll be going to lowel this weekend for a family renunion/ attending some festival (don`t know what it is really), so are there any must visit car care places there?

**AL-53** · 07-26-2005, 06:38 PM

**Terran** · 07-26-2005, 08:35 PM

I found a don kennett inc. on yahoo yellow pages...nothing about what he does though. Does 700 broadway St. ring a bell?

What`s farla?

**AL-53** · 07-28-2005, 06:51 AM

yes thats the address....it`s is an old looking building...like I said..it`s geared to body shops..but he has a good selection of products...I bought some 3M stuff..and some Meg`s and he had a good price,compared to other places...

He has other brands also..never know what you will find..

Al

PS..it`s a ruff looking area..but it`s ok....
