Meguiars #26 Hi-Tech Yellow Wax - HELP

Hey guys, I am located in Ottawa, Ontario CANADA and I am trying to find a place that sells Meguiars #26 Hi-Tech Yellow Wax locally here or a good place online that I can order from who will ship to me. I am having a real hard time trying to find this product - please let me know if you know a place that can help me out.

Thanks in advance,

Thanks, the only problem with that one is they want twice the price to ship to me plus Duties, Taxes, and Import fees.

Any other places anyone knows of? Maybe near Massena NY or Watertown NY - I can drive across border if need be.

I know that PepBoys and Advance Auto carry this wax around here, but it is stocked in the repair section with the sandpaper and body putty, not with the waxes and polishes.

See if Amazon have a locker retail location near you. THere's one down the street from here in NYC. You order something, then go pick it up at a 7-11 for instance. Maybe it could save you on jacked up shipping charges and duties.
As for detailing stuff, I order from www.autogeek.net and then sort by brand. But #26 is on backorder.
You should try Griot's Garage carnauba wax or Souveran carnauba liquid wax. I doubt you could tell the difference from #26 if the car is well prepared.
Lately I just lay down a few coats of Sealant, giving at least six hours in between coats, and top with Griot's Carnauba Spray Wax. I find it's less rubbing on the paint with nearly the same wet shine.
