    I think a thread in the new product suggestions forum is due.

    The problem with carrying these in most stores (walmart, target, autozone, pepboys, etc) is that they have the cheaper brushes/accessories that are about half the price and most (not all) of the consumers (who don't know any better) will buy the less expensive option.

    Why did Meguiar's get rid of them in the first place?

    They were not selling very well.

    Re: Do you want the Gold Class Brushes Back?

    Best I can tell, these are still being made for non-US markets. Either that, or non-US markets have a HUGE supply of these things...but they probably sell them in retail markets since the products are displayed on the non-US websites.

    Is there enough demand to sell them in the US retail stores? Probably not, but I don't see why Megs can't procure a few boxes of these brushes for the detailing community...

    I just found some slide-lock brushes from a vendor online, I was really looking for those for a while!

    Since Meguiars has not produced these brushes in a while, the sliding lock bushes are old stock that's probably been sitting in storage for a while. I just received mine from another MOLer new and still in it's original package, but the brush block fell out when I slid the slide lock down. The glue seal had weakened over time. I just put a little Gorilla glue at the bottom and the slide lock was good to go!
