Default Autopia or Griots for products and advice

I am not trying to start a 'who's better' argument, but would like some advice as to which company offers the better advice and sells the better products (for my needs, anyway, which is a 993 track car, black, with good shine but a fair amount of scuffing; would like to machine polish it this winter and perfect the gloss (or at least get closer)).
Have emailed with Autopia and been pleased so far; have not given Griots the same chance.
I never paid much attention to concours (although I take very good care of my cars including their appearance), but you folks have picqued my interest in going further.
Feel free to PM me if you prefer.

Service, support and information from Autopia has been great.

Also deliveries have been prompt - I do live locally of course.

David @ Autopia has given great demos at the local Porsche club here in San Diego, and is a Porsche owner to boot.

He let us spray car paint on the hood of his Cayenne as a demo! - he showed us how to get it back off and how well kept paint was easier to keep shiny.

Results from using Autopia products and techniques below:

Ah.....I don't think that's a mirror. It's the reflection on the car hood of blk on blk taking the picture! Pretty neat Huh? Some shine!
