A long shot, I know, but I thought I'd ask anyway. :lol:

Product suggestion or job search? We buy a lot of 3M product, so I have some interaction with their sales guy, but that doesn't carry much weight.

Sort of neither.

Long story short, a lot of the detailing products that 3M sells in the UK are vastly superior than what we get in the US. Specifically, the buffing pads and backing plates. Getting them brought over here is very expensive.

I guess mostly I'm trying to get my hands on some more (I've already got a small collection), or at the very least, plead my case to let the US have "the good stuff."

I know, I know...oddball request.
