BaronTT Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 I remember that there was a True Value Hardware Store in Pakkret, on Tiwanon. Where else are there ACE or True Value Hardware stores? I'm looking for some things that generally aren't available in regular Thai hardware stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 There are "Ma & Pa" shops that have a bunch! I go to the one on the corner of Soi 85 Sukhumvit. They have everything from oxygen tanks to nuts & bolts to taps & dies. Fair prices. Other then here, China Town between Old Siam and the river.

khun_khon_neua Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 What, the Home Pro next door doesn't have what you need? There are a number of small ones on Rama IV right before Soi 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaronTT Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Thanks, I didn't see that web site when I was searching for info. The store they list as being in Pakkret is the one I knew about. It looks like I'll need to go visit that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaronTT Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 They didn't have some of the special items I was looking for. Some of the things you can buy in the US but not normally here, such as Goof Off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.. Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Goof Off? Baron, try contacting the manufacturer for tips on stockists in LoS. I've certainly seen it here, but I cannot remember where.

cavanami Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Villa Foods has Goof Off, maybe Foodland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaronTT Posted July 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Goof Off was just an example of something that I couldn't find. The True Value in Pakkret had something called "Goo Gone", which I bought. I was also looking for Soft Scrub. Villa 33 had an Aussie equivalent called Jif Cream. Also was looking for wood putty/ wood filler. True value had it. The 2 Home Pros I checked did not. Steel Wool. Still haven't found any. Miscellaneous other stuff. Amazing, many items which we see EVERYWHERE in the US, cannot find here. But much better than it was 15 years ago, for sure. Thanks for the help, SD.

BaronTT Posted July 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 I looked for it at Villa 33, didn't see it, but found an equivalent of Soft Scrub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
