Well Im thinking of really giving this a go - got myself snowfoam and a dual action polisher so Im now looking for a supplier of waxes and potions that is located close to Edinburgh want to get some pads and cloths and a few other bits and bobs. Does anyone know of any suppliers that are close to Edinburgh ?

Hi rugged

I don't know of any suppliers near Edinburgh, but I use a company for my business who deliver & I have had no problems with them. It does depend on how much you want to pay for the polishes,cleaners etc.
Be careful when using some snow foams & TFR's & alloy wheel cleaners as they are caustic based & can damage the surfaces.

Let me know if you want any more help or advice

Gavin I'm not sure of any suppliers up here but I have always used http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk and found them to be very reasonable and reliable for all your detailing needs. Very quick delivery too!

There's a huge array of products out there, and companies that sell them, but if you are looking for A particular company you can always try Autosmart, they are mobile, and if you look them up and enquire who is your local rep, give him a call and he will arrange to meet you on a day when he is in your area.

Autosmart have some really good stuff. Other than that, if you want different stuff / brands, for different jobs, then, there's a huge choice of on-line companies where you could do a one stop shop.
