I've had this polish for a couple years now ( Swirl Remover) and I applyed it the other day with my PC after claying. When I tried to buff it off, with my microfiber towel, it was like caked on to the paint. I had to put almost all my body wieght on to buff it out.:confused: I know that can't be good so i switched product, but is that from the Meguiars being expired/old or what?

Thanks
 
Did you shake it up well prior? I was told meguiars shelf life is around 5 years. Any chance they have frozen in the past, I know that will effect them. Try contacting meguairs customer service over the phone. They are very helpfull
 
I know you are waiting for a Meguiar's (representative) answer, and you don't really say which product you are using, but the Meguiar's polishes can become very difficult to remove if you apply them too heavily. They need to be applied thin and worked in. I have plenty of Meguiar's stuff that is older than a "couple of years" and have never had any "go bad".
 
I have had both #9 and #2 separate on the shelf and would never remix .. but that was a few years back and well before my PC high use days.
 
Scott, looking the picture of you in your sig, you better get yourself a chair with rollers, before your back goes out. My son got me one a few years ago, can't work without it. Of course I;m much older than you:eek: Gary

Gary-I skate several times a week (weather dependent of course) so my back is plenty strong. I also used to do a lot of heavy weightlifting including dead lifts. I also work my abs, which support 70% of your upper body weight. Many times people have back problems because of weak abdominals!



Thanks for your concern though. :xyxthumbs



BTW, I am 43, how much older are you?
 
Scott is definately an old timer in shape. Little stocky f'er the time we met.



As for me, 22 and have already thrown my back out. Spent a whole week in bed about 2 weeks ago.



Scott is right, the abs are where it's at. I've already started them and it's starting to feel a lot better.
 
52 now, 10 years ago I used to run marathons/triathalons, and did some moutain climbing in Wash State, now I detail cars to stay in shape. I tried to talk my wife into marathon sex to stay in shape, but that didn't work .
 
65+, I still run a personal training business, but I do a lot more ‘tell’ them how to do it than show them.



Turbomagnet-I tried the same thing with my g/f (marathon sex to stay in shape) it worked…but just be careful what you wish for



Scottwax- you are 100% correct and I will add I envy you your energy being able to roller-skate for a few hours after the kind of work you do (heck I envy the standard of the work you do)
