Cheers

Rang the distributors (Dekech P/L 16-18 Longford Court Springvale 3171 Phone (03) 9558 4733) today & they advised they only sell to businesses.

For those in the outer-east of Melb, Eastcoast Auto Spares Ringwood (03 9870 4133) ordered some of this stuff last financial year, so they might still have some.

The distributor also mentioned they deal with Eastcoast Auto Spares Bentleigh, Bursons Frankston, & AutoBarn. Dekech suggested to ask them to order as they distribute single small cans.

The distributor does sell to quite a few retail outlets, so best to call them to find possible outlets, but in Vic they also mentioned Taylors Lake & a number of regional outlets.

Is this stuff still the best thing since sliced bread? Thinking about trying to get hold of some.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Haven't heard of anything else since this stuff got mentioned, so it still seems to be, although some people already use other products they swear by. Still haven't bought any, but I will.

Perhaps it's sooo good they don't want to share .. OR .. it's so bad their paint has faded 4 times worse and it all mottled and they're too embarrassed to tell us all?

Got a can of the non-clear coat TR3 Resin Glaze (silver & blue 473ml can) for $19.99 from AutoBarn. They had to order it in, but it only took a few days to get.

Thanks to Nick for helping me get a box of TR3 (one bottle has your name on it!)

I started mucking around with some today..

ditto 8)

I've put it to a fellow MX-5 enthusiast, who works for Autobarn (I know you westies dont have Autobarn there), to see if he can get a shipment in. They already stock Blue Magic products, so why not these.
Keep your fingers crossed Brisbanites.
Although my paint doesn't need this, I just want to try it damnit!

I polished my car again the other day, and noticed that the can was getting a little low. I went back to Image Auto looking to see if they can order some in, and they already had two cans on shelf. :mrgreen:
They sell for $25 a can, so I got both. The bloke working even said that this stuff is starting to sell well, so they will be getting more in.
