As I was searching for threads about Billnorth SG application thread I came across this thread (Here). I was going reply it but I couldn't so I have to start a new thread. Anyway, so here's a list of the rare suplies that other Vancouverians and I can get locally.



Check Downtown Auto Spa before asking, their site is http://www.downtownautospa.com, they can get you most of the stuff we use/discuss





I know there are wayy more but these are the only ones I can think of for the moment. Anymore???
 
S100 can be gotten at Trev Deeley Harley on Boundary.



I've also heard that Walmart carries 3M products, so I'll be checking the one just by the Queensborough Bridge to see if they have it there.



Also, for people looking for deals on Meguiar's stuff, they usually set up booths at enthusiast car shows and sell their wares, including the Medallion line and the beige bottles at good prices. It usually costs quite a bit (~$20) to get into the shows, but if you're there already...

Forum Outage Abbreviated Recap:



I don't think these guys are around anymore. Is this new info, or just from one of my old posts? Ashwood Dr. is a 100% residential area and when I called last year or so they had no clue what I was talking about.



I think 2wheelsx2 said Richmond Motorsport carried QEW.



Collinite (marine) products at Nikka Industries in Steveston.



Get stuff at a bodyshop supply store rather than Lordco, which is usually more expensive.



Wal-Mart does NOT carry any 3M product other than the 8oz size of Fine Cut Rubbing Compound ($8 I think). It's in the body repair section.

Damn, these guys are expanding faster than I can blink. I hadn't even noticed they had added Lake Country Pads to their menu.



They're going to be real competition before long for anyone else that wants to get into this niche business in Canada in the next while.

A hole in the wall! :LOLOL



Ever seen a tiny one room office with a desk, some furniture, and files and paper everywhere? That, plus a Zaino display rack. :D

Right you are Brian. Just off the 91 connector, on Westminster Highway. I was too lazy to retype after the outage.



I also stated that Mopac Auto Parts on Kingsway carried most of the Meguiar's BS line, Cali duster and other gadgets, and also the Autoglym line. Oh yeah, and that reminds me. All Subaru dealers that I have been to in the Lower Mainland carry Autoglym products too.

Not at the prices they are currently charging and the favourable exchange rate. It's still WAY cheaper to mail order from the US for most products right now.
 
Seems pretty good to me, a lot more than I though :eek:. BTW, I went to Home Hardware last sunday and I saw a can of Plexus so I bought it for $10.99. Thanks 4DSC :xyxthumbs
 
I found QEW to be least expensive at Ambassador RV in Delta on River Rd. They can also order in the large size container if you want it.

Hey, long time no see. :wavey :D
 
Anywhere I can get QEW closer in the lower mainland?? Westminster Highway and Delta seems a little too far.

I knew someone gave me the source! :o



When I went over there, the guy I talked said they didn't have any large size, and could not get it. :rolleyes: I guess it depends on who is working at the time.



C-MDX, Ambassador RV is a bit out of the way, but Richmond Motorsports is 8 minutes away from the exit to the Knght Street onto the Connector....if that's too far, I guess you'll have to mail order it. BTW, the distributor at the bike show said that they can order the large sizes too. $11.99 for a 16 oz bottle there (I got 8 bottles at $9.99 at the bike show though. :))

How about the Auto Show? I will be going this year so I hope it's there. Have you seen it in the auto show before?
 
I doubt they would have QEW at the auto show. Protect-All products in general seems to have more appeal to the RV crowd, and there isn't a lot of product coverage for their stuff here. Running a booth at the Auto Show would probably be unlikely from them (expensive too).... maybe the RV Show though. ;)
 
Got my Lake Country pads and Menzerna twins today :D!!! Went to the Crystal mail and service (which is beside Crystal mall) for pickup.
