    The metal polish is decent as well. It is a little thin but that was 1.5 years ago, I don't know if they've changed that formula again or not.

    While it was a decent product, from a business perspective, I'm not sure how well it'll do. The ones you have listed seem to be the most popular and will probably sell the best, IMO.

    I'm going to be placing my order either tomorrow or the next day. It should take 4-5 business days to get here from California.

    I like all the products I have tried from SCG BUT the products that stay stocked no less than 2 - 2 liter bottles deep are:

    Grime Destroyer
    Beyond Steel
    Tire Pro
    Dash Away
    Both QD's (nuba and sealant based)
    Clearly Better

    Wow, it seems like the 2 Liter sizes are more popular than the smaller sizes.

    Well, in most cases except for say, metal polish and leather car, they are pretty economical provided their size. Being that most of us on here clean our cars/clients cars way too much, we need the big stuff. I wouldn't hesitate to stock the smaller stuff too, better for samplers and people might want the spray bottles. 2 liters are for us veterans and people who come back for more. Since we base most of our purchases off of each others wisdom, the 2 liters are probably the better deal for both of us, considering we know what we'll be getting into. Just food for thought. :graduation:

    Yeah, so far I've decided to carry the 24 oz. and the 2 Liter sizes for sure. I'm still stuck between the 8 oz. and 16 oz. and the wax and sealant. The 16 oz. size seems pretty pricey to me.

    I guess it depends on the product. QD's are fine in 16oz. I'd go bigger for wheel cleaners and such.

    Update: Got my order finalized and placed today. It is supposed to ship out on Monday and I'm supposed to get it on the Monday after that. I have a ton of stuff coming, hopefully everyone needs a lot of Surf City stuff!

    Make sure you save some for yourself.

    Oh I will! I've tried quite a bit of their stuff, but there is a lot I haven't tried. I'm really looking forward to it. My wife says that I'm like a little kid waiting for a present!

    haha I'm like that every time I order something.

    Today I finally got my lowering springs for my LS. They for some reason took over a week to get to me from San Diego. But man was I getting that anxious excitement every day waiting for the mail to get here!

    Oh, and I'm waiting to place my order until you receive that stuff. Hopefully the Super Fly towels will still be on sale!

    Didn't know that you were getting them! Good to hear. When they give you the 1000th customer award and give you 5 extra sets of springs, keep me in mind won't you Kramer?:p:

    LOL. It was from a member on LVC. He gave his LS to his daughter, and had to put the stock springs back in. Got em for 100 bucks. Springtechs.

    I have a winter beater taht I'm going to take a look at today (1985 chev 1/2 ton 4wd pickup. 9" total lift, 315/70 tires, and in primer black. I don't want anything that I'll get mad about if someone runs into me when it's icy out) and after I decide on it, the LS is getting the limited slip diff installed, along with the springs. I'm going to try to find a deal on the stock sport struts to replace the ones in there now.

    You guys crack me up!

    Pete- as many Super Fly's that I have, they still should be on sale when the Surf City stuff comes in!
