Has anyone found APC/APC+ at a local store of any kind?

[Marc Hufnagel]

Been calling a few places listed near / in St. Louis to see if they have the APC/APC+ stocked and no one has it/has heard of it. These are places listed in the dealer locator, which some are not even in business any longer.

I've asked Advance, Oreilly and Autozone if they can order it, same answer at all 3, sorry can't get it.

I know I can order it online, but there is just something satisfying about walking in, getting it and going home to play

You did say you used the dealer locator and selected the "Professional Products"?

I did for St. Louis and came up with a lot, looks like St. Louis has a ton of zip codes, did you try a few scattered about?

I found APC at a PBE store while traveling and bottles and what not. It was cool indeed.

There is a local store than sells APC not APC+ they stock 1 and 5 gallon containers of it. They also have all the mirror glaze and detailer line.

Yes that's what I tried. The couple of carquest that I called said they only had gold class waxes/wash, the grandpas are all out of business/disconnected, and 2-3 of the auto body stores said they order in cases only of items.

PBE is Pep Boys?

Hi:

The only place in my area that will order product for you is NAPA.

If you have a NAPA give them a try;they generally do not stock product but will order it. Usually it is next day delivery to the store.

I thought I saw it at Pep Boys just a few days ago.

I was asking questions about APC+ a while back and here is a post from that thread (http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=30344) by Mike Pennington.

Let me see if I can clear this up a bit....

The original APC+ was doscontinued, but we brought it back for the Detail Industry. This means it is only available through Focused Distribution. We do not even sell it through MeguiarsDirect.com

Yeah, have to go to the right kind of store... PBE (Paint Body Exterior) stores sell more of the Pro-Line products. Definately call them before you go though. That is where I got my APC.

APC+ might be a limited release product, so that might be a little harder to dig up locally.

.....PBE (Paint Body Exterior)

I knew I was off on one thing!

PBE stores are great, the mom and pop ones usually have discontinued products laying around for cheap! Found lots of stuff at PBE's.
