It is still Winter (in the North), retailers most likely are not replenishing new inventory until Spring.

Yup it sucks. Been that way in my area for awhile. Had to order off the internet...

I had to buy the Mothers 05550 California Gold Pure Brazilian Carnauba Wax Paste (Ultimate Wax System, Step 3) - 12 oz. from Amazon.

None of the auto parts stores had it and neither did Walmart.

And then, by mistake, the outfit sent me the Mothers 05500 California Gold Brazilian Carnauba Cleaner Wax - 12 oz. instead.

The supplier made it right and told me to keep the other stuff. I suggested that perhaps they want to make sure 05550 product is not setting on the shelf next to the 05500 stuff.

S100 works well and is a decent price.
I use Meguiars D300 followed by a couple coats of S100.

But how does it smell!?

Stop. Don't make stupid mistakes you are going to regret. Just don't even bother. I was the ultimate "over-eager-I-need-this-done-now" guy a while back and even recently (on two occasions! lol) I ran out of Novus and drove 50 minutes one way up to the nearest store that carried it. Thankfully I found the big bottles the second time and bought a ton of them and even some of the little ones too just incase I wanted to use 3 for anything outside of playfields. Having that kind of desire (not the one just mentioned but the thing before that) and craving in pinball can mess so much irreplaceable shit up, especially playfields, I've seen people do it a lot and I've done it myself as well. Farfalla is a rare game (here?) as well, don't destroy something that has been fine for 33 years, have patience.

Just take it slow and order it online, you are not out of options, just out of options locally. My local AutoZone still carries the non-cleaner wax, make sure you look hard enough as sometimes it is not right next to it and can be a little hard to find.

Ordering online will allow you to get the best product you can and provide limitless choices at good prices.

Looks like blitz may still be in stock here:

I haven't ordered from those places before, though.

Yep per vid1900 I use Blitz

I haven't found pure carnauba wax in stores here since I started looking over three years ago.

Or get some Blitz in your next Pinball Life order

One word: Amazon Prime

If you are in dallas you can probly have it delivered same day.

I bought some a couple months ago and sniffed it. It smells not so good. Is it supposed to be this way? I haven't used it yet.

Must be a location issue, I can get Meguire's, P21S, Pinnacle, and Collinite today and the Mothers products tomorrow in ATL.
