      I consistently use:

      Wide Body Brush
      Wheel Face Brush
      Tire Brush

      I also have the slide lock brush that I use on occasion. I just love how these brushes have cut my typical wash time down to about an hour start to finish. I too have stockpiled some and probably have about 3-4 of the ones I consistenly use.

      As far as handles, I do like the short handles better as they seem to give you more control and aren't as akward sometime. But you certainly need that long handle on the wide body brush.

        Wheel Face Brush
        All Surface Interior Brush
        Triple duty brush (2 different styles)

        I could use the Slide Lock and All Surface Interior Brushes.

          Ordered some of these brushes through amazon and they were all out of stock. On the site it says they are in stock but after I ordered them I got an email that said they were out of stock.

            Its the same thing with a different handle. You can interchange handles with either the tire brush or interior brush if you like the short handle better.

              That is very common when they are sold through Amazon but not by Amazon, have had the same problem. Chances are they are gone.

                Use them all regularly and they are holding up well. Great products and I was sorry to see them go.

                  When Big Lots had them stocked up. Still have a Meguiars duffel bag full of a variety of them. Great brushes.

                    i think one of the many reasons they were discontinued was because of the pricing in overseas countries.

                    HOWEVER now with 3m i hope megs are able to do something about cost in countries far far away from the states.

                    an auto chain here was having 20% storewide and i ducked in to get all the brushes i could, only to find that they were scarce - only managed a tire, body and wheel brush. as said previously on the pricing problem, a body brush retailed for $24AUD, which is $16USD. Thats some price for a brush made in china.

                    So what shall i do with them brushes...used them or keep them as a collection of art work on the garage wall...hehe

                        They aren't discontinued overseas yet though, are they? They were discontinued in the U.S. because of low sales. I don't think overseas pricing had anything to do with them being discontinued in the U.S.

                          Yup! I use them all and especially love the mop. I bought several mop replacements after I got the mop so I'm good for quite a while. I also like the body brush for bug removal on my daily driver. No scratches.

                                Heck I even for got the name but I have been using the extendable mop on every wash, I love that thing! Works very well for reaching the roof/windshield/bed cover on my Avalanche. I am about to need a new mop cover and have been looking for another sponge/wash mitt that I can modify to make it work w/the mop.

                                Also hard to beat the wheel spoke brush, I still have a couple on hand so they should hold me over for at least a couple years.

                                So how about other on MOL?
                                This should be what your looking for, This is a great supplier in PA.
