Re: Super Degreaser & APC in canada?
I asked this exact question a few weeks ago. You will not find either product in Canada due to government regulations regarding ingredients not passing Cdn specs. The only way you can get them is to order them directly Greg Morton @ Meguiars Canada and if you are lucky enough to live within driving distance of the border,have them shipped to a U.S address and then pick them up yourself. What a hassle eh ? Here is the link to my previous posting.
Good luck.I got so mad at a girl who was texting while she was driving,that I rolled down my window and threw my beer at her

Re: Super Degreaser & APC in canada?
Pete/satisfier I can update this continuing search for APC in Canada; I was at the Motion show in Toronto over the weekend and got talking to the guy running the Meguiar's booth.
He gave me a business card for Rick Powell who is in Thunder Bay and is able to bring Detailer Line products into Canada.
Like I've said before, I found that a local Parts Source can get them, but I'd have to buy 4 jugs and it works out cheaper to have the order sent from ADS to an American friend & reshipped cross-border.
Shoot me a PM if you'd like Rick's contact info.

Re: Super Degreaser & APC in canada?
Being a Canadian as well and wanting all these goodies, I ended up having ADS ship to a parcel handling company just across the border. It's a 250km round trip to pick stuff up but in my case I think it's worth it. The company I use handles *any* size of package up to crated machinery at a very reasonable rate. In this latest case, Menke's parcel service charges US$2.00 or Cdn$2.50 to handle up to a 40lbs parcel from any of the typical carriers such as UPS and the like. Well worth it considering the highway robbery prices on UPS's brokerage to bring it to my door.
To be honest, there are ways for US companies to ship to Canada via UPS or Canada Posts "Border Free" service but it takes a fairly large volume to make it worthwhile for a US company to do so. I helped one small outfit in the US set it up but after a year it became apparent that it just was not paying for itself so now they just won't ship to Canada. They hated having to do it, but it just was not worth their efforts considering that the thin profit line was lost on the increased handling costs on their end.

Christian
