    Where do you Toronto detailers get wheel brightener from?

    I can't seem to find anybody that carries meg's professional line. While you're at it, tell me where you buy buffing pads and other products when you are in a pinch!

    Thanks,
    Steve

    I did some more research and it looks like the detailer line isn't available in canada. I sent an e-mail to meguiar's to hear it from the horses mouth.

    the rumour online is that it has something to do with bi-lingual labeling. I find that REALLY hard to believe that spending some money on labels prevents them from bringing the line here. I'll see what I can find out. starcar may have a solution, I'll post the results here.

    It may have more to do with exporting / shipping dangerous substances

    Canadian tire does not carry it.

    Meguiar's not much help. their e=mail response is as follows

    Dear Steven

    I first want to thank you for your interest in Meguiar's products and I hope your experience is a pleasant one.

    Unfortunately I can’t really offer much suggestion on how to get the wheel brightener in Canada. Being in the states we don’t have a listing of Canadian retailers that carry it and our Canadian offices are currently closed and restructuring. Canadian tire does get a lot of out products, but I am unsure as to whether they can get it for you. You can order it from us in the us but even then they would have to ship to a us location. I widh I had a better suggestion for you. Just keep looking for the product.

    Once again thank you for your interest in Meguiar’s. If there is anything else we can do for you please let me know. Also, if you get the chance to send any pictures of the car you are working on I would love to see them.

    Buut it looks like I Starcarr may have the answer with a company called "Citation Cleaning Equipment" his response:

    Hello Steve

    Do you want it in 20 liter pails
    OR 1 gal jugs
    Robert
    Citation
    2697 Slough
    Mississauga
    905-362 5090


    not the detailed answer I was looking for, but it sounds hopeful! I've asked for clarification on the availability.

    No, but if you're willing to look outside of the Meg's offering, they sell a superior product IMHO.

    Waseem, check the Automagic dealer in Gatineau. They sell this amazing product MAGnificient.
