Meguiars NXT Wax - Anyone sell it in Canada?

I have already started a thread on this in the show and shine section with lots of good replies.
https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...threadid=21836

So I've been looking to find this wax on the shelves here in Canada and can't find anyone who's selling it. I've been to Canadian Tire, Walmart, Zellers.
I'm going to check out carquest, napa and a few others.

If anyone finds the Meguiars NXT Wax here in Canada, let me know.

TIA!

I use Zaino, and I'm VERY happy with the product.

I've been looking for it everywhere as well. I am not sure if it's available yet in Canada. I'll keep looking.

Cool

I guess it's time for me to try some Zaino... lol

I've sweared by Zymol myself. The only real gripe I've had with it is all the work that needs to go into making the car really shiney.

What worries me is all the "synthetics" that are used in making Zaino. At least I know with Zymol everything is "natural"....

Later,

sto16: Yes, I know about Zaino and don't feel like trying it.

All else: It just came out and they are having a hard time finding it in the states. I called Carquest last night (my local one) and they don't have it yet. I'll probably call the Carquest main parts distribution centre and see if they are going to carry it.

bump.

Still haven't found anything up here and the Meguiars website only delivers to the USA.

Anyone found anything?
or should I be asking: Is anyone else looking besides me?

Was just flipping through the Canadian Tire Special Order Catalog, and they've got it listed, page 1111.

Part numbers are:
G12664 - 64 oz car wash
G12824 - 24 oz spray wash
G12718 - 18 oz tech wax
G12924 - 24 oz tech protectant
G13010 - 10 oz all metal polysh

So CT might not stock it, but they should be able to bring it in.

Next time I'm at Crappy Tire, I'll ask the parts counter guys.
I also e-mailed the Meguirs Canada sales person yesterday. When I get a respone I'll keep you guys posted.

Well, I got a response from Meguiar Canada and they said that the NXT line is supposed to hit the shelves around mid May. They also gave me a few contact places to call.

I called most of them and they are still not sure, possibly on the next shipment is the common answer. So I'm thinking probably within the next couple of weeks or so it'll start to show up.

I know your post is regarding Meguirs NXT, but have you tried a nice even coat of just plain old Mother's pure Carnuba wax? I think you'll like the results...mine looks like it could star in the Fast and the Furious when I"m done. No artificial flavors or sweeteners Just pure wax.

While I would usually welcome the suggestions on any subject, I'm not really curious as to what else is on the market (as I am more then well aware of all of them through use or otherwise)
So if you guys wouldn't mind, I'm looking for a specific product for my own reasons and would appreciate help. If not don't worry about posting to let me know what else is out there

Thanks

Try here, they specialize in getting difficult to find products for Canada:

http://www.carcaresmart.com

I currently use Zaino, but I'm going to order a bottle of NXT from them to try out too.
