Let me clear a few things up.
Barry is Meguiars he has no sons to take over the buisness when he decides to hang it up. He does have 2 daughters neither are involved with the buisness based on what they wanted to do and live their own lives. Grand kids are way to young ( pre teen) to get involved.
The Meguiars name and products will stay....Meguiars has a better feel and relationship with the consumer. The pro series might not stay the same but that is yet to be seen and nothing has been said about that. Just my $0.02
Barry lives a nice life as he should based on what he has worked for but is not over the top like most would think. His toys are limited but nice he put much of his funds into Car Crazy for folks like us and with 3M on board this will be back bigger than ever.
Meguairs sponsors over 11000 car shows and events a year....this comes straight from the bottom line. They attend about 800 or so each year and it is staggering the price to bring a truck and crew out for a weekend ( these start on Wed and run through Sunday for the crew)
The tire gel someone metioned is called endurance and iis still made with the applicator. Talk with your loacl store manager to get some or you can order at www.meguiars.com or call the 800 number. All 3 trucks carry this product at all shows if you see them there
Also rumor that Adams will be sold also soon but agree they have good products as well
