CD-2 Discontinued

Someone recently observed that CD-2 Engine Detailer was no longer available at the Turtle Wax website, so I emailed them and today received an email confirming that the product has been discontinued. My engine detailing is limited to my two vehicles, so I do not have a lot of experience; but I have been very pleased with the results I have gotten from the product and am sorry to see it discontinued.



Possible substitutes come to mind: Pig Spit, Stoner Trim Shine, Megs' HyperDressing, 303 Protectant. What do you like?
 
So....its being discontinued again? For sure this time? This has happened at least 2 times and both times I went out and bought the remaining stock at my local store.



I find Stoners trim shine to be a nice replacement but doesnt have the durability. Same with Megs HD at 3:1.
 
I never have used the product, but if I were, I would have obtained a legitimate MSDS for it.

Suspect there may have been a couple of components in it that with the VOC requirements of many states changing, it was no longer viable to produce and market the product.

Speaking of MSDSs, I wonder what the deal is with these products coming from Korea. Do they need one to be sold here? I'd be very nervous about using them in an engine compartment without safety documentation.
 
Thanks, I think the MSDS pretty well explains why in this "litigation" happy society and modern VOC regulations, it was no longer a product they wished to put on the market.

The potential liability to them does not justify the marketing of the product.

What the manufacturer in Korea does is one thing, what the US distributor does is another.

The US distributor/marketing company must provide MSDS information to ANY ONE who request such.

If they do not, and the correct US goverment agency is notified, WOW, what a thing to face and say "good bye" to some big-a-bucks with the fine.

Recall the "tire issue" a couple of years back?

The US distributor was taken down with the fines, recalls, etc and the owners are still attempting to hide their responsibility behind some corp. laws.

It ain't working, according to what I have read, they got a zillion dollar problem.

As were the Roman's using lead to sweeten their wine, painters who when the solvents and iscyo's were changed, for a while.

It won't kill you today or in a month, no, unless it were to ignite, then, well ,either your eye brows grow back or you get very hot.

Over time, some things that seem so non-damaging now, will end up shorten what your life may be.



I screw up all the time, however, since I do have some appreciation of what chemicals will do to the human body, I do take some precautions, and Jack Daniels and water is very good for flushing the system of bad things.

Just a little head's up on how to deal with all things that don't always go as one desires.

Grumpy
 
Why not?

I plan on selling front row tickets to those who qualify, back of the bus for those who don't.

LOL!

Off to the sleeping room, got an auction to go to in the morning.

Hummm 12 speed drill press, 1 horse power long shaft bench buffer on heavy stand, and who knows what else lurks in my evil mind that may fill up the "beast" with other goodies to shove into Grumpy's Garage?
