matwood Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I know this has been covered a BUNCH of times, but the search function SUUUCKKKSS. Where do you guys prefer to get autobody supplies... i.e. Tools, Blast Media, Bondo, Sandpaper, etc. There are not any places to get good stuff like this around me so where is a good source ONLINE? Thanks, madison Quote Link to comment
steve g Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 any PPG, DuPont, Akzo Nobel etc.... jobber will have everything you need and the advice from trained professionals to lead you in the right direction. Do you have an auto paint store near you? Online is cool but after shipping its hardly worth the price and waiting for a sub-standard product. Quote Link to comment
matwood Posted April 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 no paint stores around my part. at least not worth spending money at. bunch of hacks and snakes, try to pull EVERY penny out of you. Mediocre place online, then? Quote Link to comment

steve g Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 you need to visit harbor freight.... they have a bunch of economy minded tools that will get your car done...

ppeters914 Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I know this has been covered a BUNCH of times, but the search function SUUUCKKKSS. Not so much sucky as very-very picky regarding how you enter your search parameters. One workaround (also mentioned a bunch of times) is using Google to search ratsun. Not perfect, but.....
