About Shieldworks

Who we are, what we carry, and what we will not do to sell it.

Shieldworks is a Canadian detailing supply house. We carry thirty-four brands across six departments, from ceramic coatings and polishing compounds to microfibre, pads and machines.

Why this site exists

There are two kinds of detailing retailer in Canada. One carries an enormous range and gives you a scrolling grid with no way to narrow it. The other carries a small curated range and tells you what to buy. Neither publishes the numbers.

We think the numbers are the argument. A shampoo that dilutes 1:500 and a shampoo that dilutes 1:128 are not the same product at the same price, and a retailer that lists both without the ratio is not helping you. So where a manufacturer publishes a dilution ratio, a pH or a coverage figure, we put it on the product page next to the price — not three clicks away.

What we stock, and what we say about it

We are a multi-brand reseller. That means we carry products that compete with each other, and we have no reason to pretend that any one of them is the answer. The brand pages say what each brand is genuinely good at and where it is weak, including the brands we sell the most of.

Where a brand’s Canadian distribution is thin, the brand page says so.
