I just picked up some Duragloss 101 from Car Quest yesterday. When I returned home I opened the box and looked at the little catalog that came included. It didn`t even mention Aquawax and the copyright said 2002. Does it seem okay to still use the 101, or should I return it? Thanks for any info.

No reason to pay full price for a product that could be 5 yrs old. I say return it and see if they have more.

I would return the item and just bite the $5 shipping for a fresh up-dated version. I am assuming DG has continued to develop their products over the last 5 years. :nixweiss

Well I know DG has increased their prices, but your referring to old literature only. Take a good look at the product and see if it appears in good shape. No lumping or separation hat cant be resolved with a little agitation. The 101 your referring to should appear light blue and very thin......(If I remember correctly, I could be wrong though, I`d have to check mine again)

johny... if there is a picture of Bob Hope holding up the 101 ...then you know it`s 2 old !!!!

IIRC some folks have called DG directly after buying stuff locally and have had new versions shipped to them. It`s worth a shot.

I bought a bottle of 111 last year..and after getting it home I seen it was old stock...lookd funky..I returned it and asked how old it was at the Napa Store...it was dusty..they replied it doe not move so may be a few years old..I got my money back and placed a order with DG...I knew I got a fresh product from them...



If you order 101 get 105 also...using 101 to clean the paint and topping 101 with 105 has been a nice combo....

Hey ... thanks for the comments, everybody. I decided to return the DG 101 and get my money back. The product looked okay (per Patrick`s description), but I got scared. Maybe it`s just my OCD, but I wanted to make sure that I have a "fresh" product. I wish manufacturers would put dates on their boxes and bottles. Maybe some do.
