What’s wrong with Optimum Poli Seal??

So no matter how much I shake it it’s permanently separated. I guess just get a different AIO and forget about it? Anyone else still use Poli Seal?

Let OPT know and see if they can replace it for so you are not on the product, I’m they wil make it right for you

Mine did the same thing. It was in their old style bottle though with a cap that didn’t really seal the bottle well. I figured it was exposed to air and the product went bad. After seeing this post and the same thing happened, maybe the bottle wasn’t the issue. I ended up tossing mine out, the bottle was almost full and I was pretty bummed.

Optimum stuff is great but I`ve noticed the polishes separate after a few years.

had that problem years ago when my bottle sat too long and really haven`t used it since. the acc website states a new formula is coming out soon, maybe it`ll be better.

I’ve only had this a few months and haven’t used it much. Not sure if I’d want a replacement if it will do the same thing

ACC has said this for MONTHS now. I contacted optimum because I`m a big fan of poli-seal and they said that they don`t have plans of releasing the new formula and to use GPS instead.

I had this happen to two bottles of Poli-Seal that I had. One Optimum had replaced and the second bottle did the same thing

I know there was a time when OPT changed over to the water-based formulation for their stuff and this was happening, but that was a LONG time ago and that`s a pretty new bottle. And besides, that looks like some butter/herb seafood dip...WTH? I wouldn`t want to have whatever is growing in there on my hands etc. I`m glad my old little bottle of Poliseal is clear, and it`s still fine, anyway.

Mine all did that I had an older 32 oz white bottle from probably 10 years ago whenever it first came out then 2 newer 8 oz clear bottles and did the same thing. Not getting anymore of those needless to say

I’ve always had that experience with Optimum polishes. I’ve messaged them several times and was told that it was exposed to heat- send them back to ACC/AG but as it happened a handful of times and at different times too (because I never learn, even with smaller bottles), going back and forth just wasn’t worth it. I had to bin 2 gallons each of Opt polish, poliseal, and compound.

I`ve asked before if the PBMG warehouse is air conditioned, but never got an answer, so I presume that it isn`t. Of course, as I understand it, the OPT warehouse isn`t, either, but it`s a bit further north. I personally haven`t had these problems, but I`ve previously decided if I order any more OPT stuff I`m going to order it direct just to make sure it`s as fresh as possible. Of course then you have to pay list price and no sales, but I think they still have free shipping over $75.
