Default Where to buy detailing products in Socal?

Hey guys, looking to detail my car. It's in need of a good polish. I already have a portercable and M105 & M205, but I need more pads. Do you guys know where I can buy some decent pads or any other good detailing products near pomona? I know I can buy online, but I want to try and detail tomorrow.

Have you checked Pep Boys? Some of them have pretty extensive car care sections... Worth a shot

Are you using a Velcro backing plate with your Porter Cable? If so, call up a company called Buff 'n Shine. They make most of the machine polishing pads that companies in SoCal sell. I'm sure that they'd be able to tell you who sells their pads near Pomona. They are in Huntington Beach.

If you feel like taking a bit of a drive, swing out and see me in Chatsworth. My name is Brandon and I'm the showroom manager for California Car Cover Company. I sell Buff 'n Shine pads and our in house line of car cleaning products called Golden Shine. I'll take care of you

Thanks everyone for the replies! I ended up going to Gatsbee's suggestion since it was only 10 minutes away. I've never heard of any of the brands they carry except for meguir, but that doesn't mean it isn't good stuff. I ended up getting a couple pads which the guy said they're all for polishing and waxing (Like a blue pad can polish, finish, and wax). Also got some brushes and carpet cleaner. Thanks again!
