Been wanting to give 3M Ultrafina a try for a while now, but I have no idea where to pick it up in Canada. Anyone in Canada, or Ontario know where to find this product? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
I was afraid that the Canadian retailers would jack their prices. I wonder, seeings that I live a 5 minute drive from Detroit, MI, if I should just make a trip over there and see what I can find.

Do a search and find a freight forwarder in Detroit that receives packages.

I ship all my packages to a freight forwarder across the border and pick them up for $3.00 a box.

I always get the best deals online and I never pay brokerage fees or worry that they'll drop off a package on my doorstep and it will sit out there all day.

If it's $40-50 Customs doesn't even bother you for the taxes usually.

I've even gone through with declaring $200 brake rotors and they didn't even stop me a few months ago (rare occasion).

Does it just cost you $3.00 per package, or are there any other fees. If I could bring this stuff across myself instead of shipping it across the border, it'd be great. I mean, sometimes it takes 3-4 weeks for a shipment to arrive thanks to customs :(

The freight forwarder charges only $3.00 per package up to 70 Lbs.

Tires are a little more though.

It was only $2.00 before the first of January. No other fees.

I picked up a clutch and flywheel which weighed 50Lb. last week and it was stilll $3.00.

When I cross the border I only pay the taxes since it's a US made product.

I shipped a US made car part to a customer of mine from NJ to Alberta and it sat in customs for 17 days. It's a damn joke.

Here is a link to the place I use. I'm sure there is a company in your area that does the same thing.

Delivery Instructions
 
I use a UPS Store in Niagara Falls, NY. You rent a box there and have your packages shipped to it. There is no Post Office Box Number but a street number and everything arrives just fine and is signed for. Have had it for 3 years now.
