Here's a list (in no particular order) of the places as used by other forum members as to where to purchase cleaning product from online:

Haven't found a thread specifically for car care and even though you could probably log into the various other sites/forums for this info I thought it'd be a good idea to bring this topic here (given the recent waterless wash discussion)
I usually take pretty good care of the car, but am now looking to get a bit more serious in terms of the products I use. Currently, I'm on Meguairs NXT2.0 car wash and techwax (due to them being easy to apply etc.) But now I want to move to Swissvax and had a few queries for the paint cleaner product.
To remove the current wax on the car I am going to use the Swissvax Cleaner fluid. Here's a summary of what this does:
"Cleaner Fluid is Swissvax’s pre-wax surface prep. When applied with heavy pressure and a soft polishing cloth it causes friction between the the product’s micro granules which leads to a progressively finer abrasive polish. Swirl marks, light scratches tar, tree sap and old waxes can be removed with Cleaner Fluid.
Like all paint treatments it should only be used on small areas at a time then buffed off with a buffing towel.
Ideal Application:
Thoroughly wash and dry the vehicle. Using a Swissvax Pre Wax Applicator, apply Cleaner Fluid Liberally with an even back and forth motion (not circular motion) over a small area. Work in the Cleaner Fluid with light pressure (using reciprocating strokes) until the surface becomes “saturated” Do not let dry. With a fresh Swissvax cloth, polish the treated paint area. Keep turning the cloth to expose a clean surface."
My query is whether the micro granules will cause swirl marks if used incorrectly?
I know this should be a required step to get all of the existing wax off my car post clay bar. Anyone care to post how they go about cleaning their car of existing wax. Note that this full process should be done every 6-8 months per the recommendation.
