    Blackfire age question

    I found 2 bottle of Blackfire Wet Diamond Paint Protection. How can I tell how old it is? The number on the bottom of the bottle on a sticker is 11180.

    That`s a batch number, really cannot look up the production date. What does the bottle look like?

    Since I don`t know how to post pictures here a brief description. Old label with cobra and the poly charger symbol is in the middle, I know some symbol was at the top.

    Does the label look discolored or oily?

    From what I can remember when I was there, it should be from around 2011.

    Okay, getting warmer. On the back, does it say Distributed by Classic Motoring Accessories or Palm Beach Motoring?

    CMA? Okay... last question... is there a sticker on the label that says boosted by Polycharger. If yes... is it a separate sticker on the label, part of the label or placed elsewhere on the bottle. We are almost there....

    This is like watching a forum version of Antiques Roadshow.

    Then it should be 2011. I was there when the last batch came in CMA weeks before it was sold.

    I went through google images to see if I can find a picture of the label/bottle. There is one on autogeekonline.net by Nick at autogeek thread title Rebirth of a daily driver- oxidized corolla posted on 12-07-2011 at 11:03, not sure if you can search for it, there a good picture of the bottle in the thread, not sure if that helps.

    Except that bottle is Distributed by PBMG, not CMA. The newest your bottle would is 2010, could be as old as 2008.

    Re: Blackfire age question

    I know that bottle was distributed by Autogeek but it the only picture I could find. The reason I started this thread was because when I shake the bottle it was separated, and somebody I know work at a paint store and put it the paint shaker and still was separated but not as bad. Do you think the BFWD is bad or still usable? Bought it 1.5 years or so ago. Stored in basement where temperature is roughly between 50 to 75 degrees.
