Depending on how big your order is, many of the detail products vendors will give you free shipping as well. I've checked the price of stuff on Amazon against some of the vendors and found little to no difference in prices. It's always good to search for the best deal though.

Amazon?

I just drive about 30 minutes to the actual Griot's Garage.

:-)

it is nice to go there for a tech class to learn to use their products.

Ask them how to use their glass sealant. That stuff sucks tremendously.

Hope you have better luck than I did. Waste of money, straight to the garbage for me.

I do so much shopping on Amazon, it's amazing! 9/10 times they have items for the cheapest prices available. I have purchased clay and speed shine from them and it arrived in the advertised two days. Also purchased some of their thick blue MF towels, great products!

What were the towels you bought? Were they as good as the Rethiuckulous towel from DI?

They shipped me a replacement for the late stuff and it will be here today, no charge. Good customer service.

These were the towels that came with the speed shine kit. They have been great for general MF use as well, not just with detail sprays. I love using them with Adam's detail spray as well, though Griot's Garage speed shine is a good product as well IMO.

I live in Kent now, but work in Bellevue.

Easy to find me on the Northwest section of this website, or on facebook.

We have quite an active Facebook club that meets in real life for shows and activities.

I bought mine from Advance Auto Parts. They had a 50% off coupon when you spend $100 and free local pickup (of course). Not $50 off your next purchase, 50% off. I bought 2 gallons of spray on wax and 2 gallons of speed shine. Looks like good stuff so far.

You can always return the product.

The thing I love about GG is their customers for life policy. If you are not happy they will do everything they can to make it right.

You can return anything for 180 days, after that they will replace if you have defective item!

Didn't know that. That's a great policy for them to have.
