ARDEX Detailing Products ?

[cat in the hat]

Anyone have experience with ARDEX detailing products ? They're in my area, and a lot of dealers / high-volume car lots around here use their stuff.

Yes! Been using Ardex for years! Will not use anything else.

It's made in Northeast Phial. not far from the Nabisco factory:)

Nice store with very helpful personal :up:

I used their engine compartment detailer before Carlisle, worked great. Used to buy I think it was called CD-3 or CD-4 but that was discontinued because of CFC's or other EPA stuff. A guy I work with a Corvette swears by ALL their products, and he is a perfectionist. One close to me in NE Philly. Hope that helps.

^^^ with all the takeover's in the last 10+ years not really sure what going on with Nabisco.

But back on topic the people in the showroom are very helpful if you stop by :up:

No Eric they do not sell cookies! Just wax and other items to make the car/truck sine and look good :)

I've heard good things about the ARDEX engine degreaser spray, the wheel cleaner and the paste wax. The paste wax is supposed to be soft and easy to use. If I try it, I'll let you know how it goes. I'm tired of using these old-school, hard paste waxes that you never want to do because they're such a PITA.

I'm pretty sure they still make cookies at Nabisco, because on some nights the whole area still smells like fresh-baked cookies. It really smells great on a crisp autumn night :) I think it has been taken over by Kraft though.
It's an old industrial site, like Tastycake on Hunting Park Ave - my grandfather drove a truck for Nabisco 50 years ago, and it was old then - so it might not be suitable for tours ;)

Yeah, this area has been hemorrhaging big operations like that for 20 years :(
