Vanish Soap

[elmcitymaven 9,712]

Okay, this is a bit of a weird one, but I'm hoping someone still UK-side can help me out on this one. Apparently, there is nothing like Vanish soap for getting grime off of car trim and junky hi-fi. (Can you guess who I'm asking this for?) However, it absolutely HAS to be the stain remover BAR, not the stick. It looks like this:

Well, I ordered 10 of these for my husband as a surprise from one of the British shops online, and they sent me 10 sticks without telling me. As a side story, they're trying to convince me to keep them, but I ain't happy. The shop said they had sent the sticks because they no longer have access to the bars. The hubster emailed Vanish to see if the bars are still being made and three days later got a reply that Vanish will only correspond with UK-based customers. (You can imagine the reply they got from him.)

So... Does anyone still in the UK know if the bars are still being made? We have one right now, but one can only go so far. With Vanish refusing to tell us anything because we are in the US, we are flying blind. Help!

Not able to tell you if they still make them as I am now in USA but have you tried seeing if anyone sell them on the UK Ebay site?...just a shot in the dark but there are quite a few things I buy from ebay UK.....

I'll check tesco.com for you, brb.

Tesco.com are showing every Vanish product except the bar. However the UK Vanish website is still showing it as being sold. We have a bar at home but it must be ancient.

The bar is DEFINITELY still around... we have one!

This is all very interesting. I think we may ask his mum to start looking around for some. Thanks!
