Where do you buy your detailing stuff?

Post by Shoppinit » Mon Apr 17, 2017 8:56 am

I used to use Shinearama who had a good selection at good prices and very reasonable shipping costs, but they are no more.

Can anyone recommend somewhere to get my washing / waxing supplies so I don't have to go to Halfrauds?

I just normally use the places from detailing world. I've also found some shops on eBay that sell some of the stuff cheaper.
previous- Pug 205 gti, 306 gti, 309 gti Goodwood.
Audi S3, S4 V8 avant.
Porsche Macan Turbo.
Gone but NEVER forgotten - C5 RS6 Misano red avant.

Now - Empty garage

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there!

The three main ones for me are:

Elite Car Care - Discount Code DW for 5%
Clean Your Car - Discount Code DW05 for 5%
Polished Bliss

Polished Bliss have free postage which is quite handy when you've run out of just one product. Clean and Shiny is another company on my radar but yet to purchase from them. Having just spent nearly £400 on stuff last week, a lot of places have run out of products with people stocking up for the Easter Weekend.
Sepang Blue B8 RS4, MY14, All option packs, B&O, Adv Key, Adapt Cruise, Pan Roof, Akrapovic Titanium Exhaust, + more.
Previous - Sprint Blue B7 RS4 Avant, Ceramics, Sunroof, SS+, Buckets, FBSW, Bluetooth, 2010+ RNSe
Previous - Phantom Black B7 RS4 Avant, Black Optics, Titan pack, SS+, Buckets, FBSW
