Advanced Auto now Carries the Clay Kit

[Jeff Smith]

I think I have switched my favorite walk-in retailer today.

I went to Advanced Auto here in Southern MD and the now carry the new Clay Kits. Heck I didn't need one and still bought it.

This was the first time I have walked into a retail establishment and seen one of the Meg's kits. Usually I have to order online or buy Mother's. I see the Magic Clay kits alot but have not tried those.

They also had several of the other new products on the shelf as well. I think I found a new home.

While there the Manager was talking some kid into buying Insane Shine. I think I blew the sale for him though. Didnlt mean to. I said I used Insane Shine and loved it and also enlightened him to the fact that it was now in a trigger spray. The kid decided to hold and look for the trigger, unfortunately they did not carry that and the kid left. I have a feeling the manager will soon carry the trigger though.

Thanks for bringing this to our forum's attention, we hope that as time goes by and the wash and wax season draws closer we'll start to see more and more availability on the shelves of our new products, especially the new Smooth Surface Clay Kit.




By the way this product just won an industry award for "Best New Product" for the category of, Restoration $1.00 - $99.00

The Hotrod & Restoration Trade Show



In a couple of weeks we'll have the Trophy and the Blue Ribbon and I'll take a photo of it to share on the forum.

I find autozone has a short stock of Meg's products. I cant find NXT Tire Cleaner, Metal Polysh, or Speed Detailer at Autozone, but I can find 26, 7 and Plastix oddly enough.

The auto part store's around here have some of Meguair's product's. Like the Speed detailer, NXT Tech Wax, NXT Tire Cleaner and NXT Insane Shine.

That's funny, I went into pep boys a month ago and saw the new clay kit on the shelf and bought it when I didn't need it either. At least I have extra clay when I need it. And another ss microfiber (my favorite cloths to use on anything)

This was the first time I had seen the Smooth Surface clay kit in "any" retail store around here. I was happy.

The bad thing was this. I generally like to keep a few kits around to work up other folks car with. So earlier that day I had bought "2" of the Mothers kits. The day before I had opened of my can of Professional Mild clay to work on my Truck. Then I saw this in the store and bought it to.

When I do free details for people I do make them Buy a clay kit as I don;t use clay on paint twice so they can eat that cost. So I like to keep a few around in case the strores are sold out, then I can just sell it to them myself if need be.

Pep Boys for me is about a 30 minute drive each way so I try to keep up on the local stores inventory. But I stop a PB every time I get up that way. I usually buy them out of the Supreme Shine MFs.

I hear ya. I used to like AutoZone and the Manager is always telling me to let him know what to keep around but he doesn't follow through very well.

I wish I had a PBE store around here but when I type my zipcode in the Search Utility it comes up with nothing in my area.

That must vary from region to region or something. Around here AutoZone does a decent job. Not perfect but decent.

I agree with the SSMF thing. I have a suspicion Megs will offer that in bulk at some point.
