HI All
Can anyone help I am looking for a vac shop or anyone that can service a Fakir polisher for me, Its been in daily use for 12 years and never any problem but to-day its sounds like the brushes are stating to go. The last vac shop i new of near Croydon closed a few years ago and they had always looked after it. ( It was a sad day when they closed) The company I got it from are somewhere in the North but geting it to them is a big headache and takes to long. Its the only polisher I have had that works. The other polishers I have had just do not do the same job and with 2 dogs that always seem to have muddy paws I need it fixing and fast. Also does anyone know where you can still buy Traffic Wax?
 
Give this a try

Mike,
You might like to try Hill Vacs, 446 Durnsford Road, Wimbledon SW19 8DZ Ph: 020 8946 7299

This is an old fashioned vacuum cleaner shop although I do have to say I found the owner a bit surly any time I have been in - worth a phone call anyway

Thanks

Hi
How are you
Many Thanks for this l'll ring in the morning I know the road but have never seen the shop. So few people seem to use a polisher anymore they are hard to find.
I wish you well

As you head towards Wandsworth, its on the left hand side just before the junction with Revelstoke Road - there is even a partial view of it on Google maps. It is easy to miss as the pizza place next door extends out beyond the line of the other shops and there is a bus stop and shelter right in front of Hill Vacs. The guy in there has loads of interesting bits and pieces, its just a shame he is not a bit more friendly, frankly I dont know how he stays in business at all
