      I've gotta say, the Gold Class line was one of the best designed sets of tools I have ever seen. You can tell a lot of thought and design went into that line.

      Any chance Megs would be releasing any brushes in the near future? I (along with many others I'm sure) would like to see some of those products reintroduced to the US market.

        I agree!!

        The Gold Class accesory line was a great line of products and it was sad to see them go. They seem harder and harder to find as well

          The only thing I don't like about Meguiar's is the fact they don't give you all the tools to finish the job. I use to use another company who offered everything from brushes to towels, mitts to drying towels. However they were lacking in the waxes/polishes department. I now have to use Meguiar's products and the other guy's accessories. The MF's are as good as Meg's and when I have to get more products I just order all my accessories from them. I would love to be able to get all I need from Meguiar's, products and accessories.

            Nitrile gloves are a staple of my arsenal...after 8 hours of detailing, I take them off and hands are good as new...as for the tire dressing, I paint it on with a 1 1/2" paint brush, let it sit 30 minutes or so while I do something else and then wipe off the excess with an old terry towel...seems to work for me...applicators are overrated...

              I bought a dozen of these from ADS for $10. Used one for the first time today. Squeezed some Hot Shine Tire Gel on it and in about a minute and half had all four tire done.
              Easiest tire dressing I've ever done. I put it in a ziplock when I was finished and that was it. No mess.

                Harbor Freight sells similar applicators, except they are 10 for $2.

                  No change from my first reply to this thread, at this time and into the foreseeable future we will not be introducing the Accu-Grip products as a part of our U.S. product line.

                    Mike, any chance we will see some Megs brushes reintroduced to the US in the coming future? The Gold Class brushes are some of the finest products I've seen for detailing, it's a shame they are so hard to find these days.

                      Doubt it. There's just not a strong enough retail demand to justify the skew.

                          Hard to believe they didn't do well enough but most see two of the same type of brush hanging side by side in Walmart and one is a few dollars more than the other I would guess they are going to reach for the cheap one not the Meguiars one.

                            That would be most people that I see when shopping at walmart in the auto aisle. I've seen many grab the cheaper blue coral wash and not even bother with any others due to the price...
