Hey guys, ive done some searching but came up empty. I was wondering if you guys know where i can find an Autobody supply shop so I can get my chemicals from there instead of a million different online retailers. I will still use them of course, but if i can get megs gallons of stuff, poorboys gallons, etc... I would rather do that locally.



if anyone knows a place like this please let me know.



thanks in advance!

properautocare.com is located right in tampa. You can go there and get almost anything. They are right up the road from my off of linebaugh, so if you need anything and cannot get there during their hours, let me know.
 
theres also a lot of supply trucks you can look into getting products from. automagic is one of the most popular i think
 
just find out what suppliers are out there and check their websites, and clal the company for more info is the best i can tell you.

automagic, granitize, superior products, car Brite, etc...

and yes proper auto care is right here in tampa for the more boutique style products

More boutique products? They have regular stuff too....Huge warehouse.
 
Hey Josh, thanks for the info! Can you shop their warehouse or do you have to tell them at the counter what you want? I would like to look around, (although that might be a bad idea)



Also, I can get other stuff thats not on their website like say... a gallon of #26 or maybe something like Optimum polish??



Also, how do i get the 10% discount, do i tell them I am from Autopia?



Thanks man, I really appreciate that!



Jim
 
They wont let you just look around, but they will bring you back there and walk with you. Super nice people. Just ask for the 10% discount.
 
What kinda stuff do they carry besides the stuff that is on their website? Would they have stuff like gallons of Megs products? Poorboys, Collinite, Hi Temp, etc...?



I used to own a deli close to their warehouse, it was on Benjamin and Hillsborough, (about 1/2 mile north of hillsborough on benjamin) It is called Moxies Too, have you ever heard of it?



Still cant believe there was a detailing supply warehouse so close, probably a good thing I didnt know, I had money back then and man would i have gone nuts there!



Thanks again Josh!



Jim
 
Yea, Moxies and Moxies Too were started by the same owner, we bought Moxies Too. Same exact sandwiches just different names.



Jim
 
Yea I heard! I think I may be stopping by there tomorrow, not sure yet. Want to pick up some stuff..



Do they have a catalog of the products they carry in their warehouse by chance? As Im not sure exactly what I want.



I know I want to pick up some XMT 360 and maybe some RMG if they carry it.

Hey Josh, just got back from properautocare's warehouse. They didnt have alot of the stuff I wanted to pick up like XMT or any Hi Temp products. No big deal though as I sat and talked with John for about an hour.



He knows his stuff! He was telling me about the lines they carry and why. Why he likes certain things and doesnt like certain things. Showed me some new products i have never heard of, like the Sonax line of products.



He also gave me a tour of the back, I almost started salivating!



Anyways, i picked up a few ccs pads, black, white, and orange. Their orange one seems like it will beat out any orange pads i currently have. The foam is imported from switzerland he was telling me. You can read all about their orange pads on their website.



So thanks for informing me of this place Josh, I appreciate it!
