I’d like to find a fairly high-end supplier of things like wash and wax products, cleaning tools, chamois cloths etc. I’ve used Griot’s Garage before, but are there any others? ---

Locally a paper and chemical supplier is the best source. [http://catalog.montspaper.com/Items/JMTCTW/Chemicals/Car-Truck-Wash-and-Detailing/](http://catalog.montspaper.com/Items/JMTCTW/Chemicals/Car-Truck-Wash-and-Detailing/) Are internet sources usually superior to local walk in businesses? ---

Mustangman, that’s great. Looks like a lot of useful instruction, too. ---

Don’t buy into the hype around some of those super expensive waxes, etc. Some of the best are on the shelf at Walmart, etc. ---

Anyone have an opinion of the Meguiar’s product line? ---

They’re good. You might check prices on [amazon.com](http://amazon.com). ---

Agreed with @texases . Meguiars is very good, and plenty good enough for homeowners. I use them exclusively except for leather care - there I step up to the Leatherique system - it’s expensive, but fantastic. My 7 year old leather seats in my Acura look almost brand new just from treating them yearly with that stuff. ---

I really like Meguires products and they are available everywhere in both hand and machine grades. Machine grades are less aggressive so you don’t burn through the paint. I prefer Meguires polish to Griots best and we have 2 black cars… very demanding of swirl remover polishes. ---

I also like Meguires products, but as to ordering them via Amazon, you have to think about shipping fees. Unless you are ordering a lot of car wax (over $25, IIRC), the lower price on Amazon will be wiped out by shipping charges.
