Peak Drying towels back at Pep Boys

Last time I was there the infamous green microfiber towels were out of stock and I was heartbroken. They have a new line in from Peak that has a bit smaller towel, by a few inches, but it is SOFT. It is baby blue and doesn't come with a silk edging but it is very thick (like a shag rag) and is $10. I think these are it actually, which is a steal if so. I just have Pep Boys gift cards so I picked some up.

Peak Microfiber Car Home Drying Towel Blue - eBay (item 290499087416 end time Mar-11-11 11:44:47 PST)

 

Ive noticed PepBoys has upped there game slightly, they have some decent products........ and alot less scooters and go karts

 

kyle, have you tried the smaller peak waffle weave drying towels? they come in a pack of like ten i think, and they cant be bigger than 12x12 each. i could be wrong, but i picked up a pack of them a few weeks back for around 10 bucks, assorted colors. well either way, ive been using them as window cleaning towels and they rock. definitely check them out.

 

They are also blowing out their Autoglym stock (about 50%off Pep Boys pricing) and many other products are on clearance. I feel like Norm from Cheers when I walk in there. Thanks goodness I don't look like him.

 

Funny you mention that microfiber again. I actually found it two days ago at Pepboys and got it for $6 but it was the Peak Premium forrest green ultra plush 36 x 30 drying towel and used to today it works great and is very soft. It was the only one left this time but if they get more in I will get you one like I said I would Reflect I also picked up Autoglym Bodywork Shampoo and Conditoner for $5 it was on sale so I said what the hell might as well give it a go.

 

Pepboys is blowing out AG? may have to peep it.

 

Kilo,

Yeah they also carry Surf City Garage which has a really nice line. I'm still on the fence about their LSPs. They look really glossy but water beading/sheeting was weird. They carry a lot of Carrand stuff too under Autospa.

Bill,

I'll definitely take a look at those towels. I've been using regular cotton towels and they work pretty well but I don't mind taking the plunge for 10 bucks. When the weather breaks I have your UG soap (and Rogers) sitting up in my closet.

Rfinkle,

Didn't see a 50% off clearance when I was out today, do they have a coupon for it? Some times you can get really lucky and they have some nice printable coupons.

Danny,

No need to grab me one, these are a pretty good replacement. A bit smaller but they feel a tad softer and the edges are the same. Thanks for thinking of me though! I plan on picking up another one or two of these if I like them and that'll make 6 Peak drying towels, 2 DD waffle weaves, and a couple Autospa/Amazing Dryer style. That's too much drying!

Kyle well if I do come across them again you will be the first to know

 

Take a look at the blue ones, they might be a bit softer. I can't remember exactly what the green ones felt like but the blue ones are really nice. I wish they had a silk edging but they'll do well I bet.

 

the PB by my house does not carry Surf City..... wonder if its a per market thing.

 

If you go on the SCG site they have a retailer locater that might help you out. It's a great OTC brand, definitely worth the drive.

 

My Pepboys takes clearance products from the shelves, and puts them onto a table with premarked pricing. I think it is about 50% off because the AGHD was $27.99, and the tire dressing I picked up was $5.xx.

They also had some Mothers and PPG stuff marked down also.

 

I'd say the green is about 25-30% larger.

 

stopped at pep boys near my house and picked up SRP for $4.90, body work shampoo for $2.90, rapid detailer for $5.90, and the rubber/vinyl car for $5.00 and they had HD for $14.90 but i already have two tubs so i didnt get more

 

Those are some serious steals. I would have picked up that HD wax just for the hell of it at that price.

 

yup. im going to have to double check my area pepboys' for HD wax at that price.

 

Thats a great price for the other AG products

 

if anyone wants some HD i can pick it up for you if you just paypal me after and pay shipping

 

going there tomorrow.

last time i was there they had Carrand brand wheel wool brush like you see on CG website. gona get that and maybe some AG brand.
whats with AG not having good luck here

 

Holy those prices are basically a steal....someone just starting out with detailing could easily stock up on that.
