Hey guys, where do you get your detailing brushes from? I'm trying to find a place locally to buy some brushes (i.e. swissvax wheel brush and another utility brush), but don't seem to have any luck.

I've tried eshine, but they don't carry. Detailersdomain is too expensive with shipping and I prefer not to deal with the exchange rate or driving to buffalo to pick up for only brushes.

Any help?

Not sure if this will help, but what about calling one of the PepBoy stores in Buffalo and see if they have anything. I do almost all of my non-Honda/Nissan parts shopping at my local PepBoys.

There is a $10 off coupon on $30 or more purchase on their web site, I just printed it out as I have to go buy oil for the Titan's oil change.

Yeah, shipping costs to Canada combined with the current exchange rate makes ordering online from a US website my last option right now.
Those boar's hair brushes are along the lines of what I'm looking for. Thanks for the info, but I'm hoping there is something local.

What about shipping to someone you know in the states and then a nice drive down to visit them? And if you don't know somebody in Buffalo maybe you ought to start posting in Upstate and try to make a friend...

If you play your cards right maybe a little meet at the Anchor Bar, home of the Buffalo Chicken Wing

yeah I've used a US mailbox before and would consider doing it again, just trying to avoid a 2 hour drive down and then spending the rest of the day shopping at the gf's request

Curry's is local and might have something useful. Thanks for the suggestion!

It's almost like pulling teeth trying to find stuff here!

Keep us posted.

I use a cheap flat/wide paintbrush to clean out the dust in the dash vents, works great.

Yeah let us know if you find something at currys.. though really any soft brush should do.. interior anyhow.. dunno if it's only synthetic fibres that would scratch paint or just certain types of animal hair won't.
