BFWD gone bad?

[ziggo99]

Last night I grabbed my bottle of BFWD (bought right before PAC closed) and started shaking it. And shaking it. And shaking it. 10 minutes later, it still sounded like water. I poured some onto my pad, and it look a tad mixed, but you could tell something wasn't right. I don't recall shaking it that long before, so I grabbed my PowerLock and started shaking it. Within a minute or two it went from the watery sound to more lotion like, it had thickened up like I remembered.

I always keep it inside in my closet, so I know it's not a temperature thing. Has it gone bad on me? It just seemed like 10 minutes of shaking would've done something.

How old is it?

Sorry to hear Kyle, that was the last batch made by PAC and I was gone. I did hear some folks having this problem. Maybe Todd can help on this matter.

How old is it?

The receipt says an order date of 6/24/11, so a bit over a year ago. I've used it a handful of times, so I know it's not an issue of just sitting there and not being shaken.

That was my last day / week I think at PAC.

Keep shaking. It can take a little while to get it to remix if it has separated.

I bought some at the end of PAC and mine's been fine.

what's PAC?

PAC was Proper Auto Care. They sold products similar to ACC. They closed down last year I think. They originally owned Blackfire

I bought two 32oz. bottles of BFWD when PAC was closing since I wasn't sure if BF would still be around. When I refill my small bottle with them I have to shake for a loooooonnnng time. I'm pretty sure it is the same batch as yours as I know I spoke to Angelo on the phone about my order during that last week. Keep shaking, inverting it every 30 seconds or so. It will eventually change sound.

I checked my old bottle and it's fine. I had to shake it up for a little while longer than some of my other stuff but it was fine

mine was liquid today... shook it up and turned back to lotion-like within 10 seconds.

If you put a nut or a marble in there that will help mix it.

Shake it like a polaroid picture, place it in the fridge for an hour, and shake it like a polaroid picture a little longer.

go to a paint store and borrow the shaker for a min

This. I put it in the fridge for like 15 minutes, and it came back together. I just shook it earlier today and it sounds right. I was impatient and only went 5 minutes the first time.

Wow, what timing! I've had a bottle of All Paint Protection for a few years, pre-voc, and the last few times I've used it, it seemed thin. I shook the heck out of it tonight and it turned back to liquid. It was great to find that I didn't have to throw it out!

Thanks for posting this.
