Back when there was Detail City store I ordered a Menzerna Car Care Kit when I was moving from NC to OH. Well long story short that box was packed away until now -- I am guessing 5-7 years and three cars ago. So I just opened it and everything looks good except - the fmj bottle

eek...I can transfer it to a new bottle but you think the products are still good?

I have carwash I am sure is fine - final polish II, finishing touch glaze and the purple menace FMJ lol...any ideas?

Nice find. How does the label feel on the FMJ. Is it greasy?
 
No the label is fine just some very very purple pinkish spots through the plastic. The bottles were all packed on their side.
 
and that is proof plastic is not a solid material it is porous, if we didnt drop bottles so often glass would be the way to go, imo i think thats the cause of so many peoples products having issues is due to plastic being permeable

I would shake really well and apply it to a section. One of three things will happen: 1) It will work fine. 2) It will be very streakly. 3) It will exhibit short durability.

If it was such a good product, any idea why they dont make it anymore? Not VOC compliant maybe?

FMJ was a brand licensed by a vendor that doesn't exist anymore. ProperAutoCare. I believe that PBMG owns the rights to PAC's former brands like Blackfire, Eimann Farik, not sure if FMJ is in there too, but it might me. FMJ was good stuff, you might just blame brand saturation for its demise.

Oh i remember now, powerlock came out and fmj was shelved to be brought back under eimann fabrik, but pac went under and it never happened.
 
yah and i got a bottle of FPII and Final Glaze as well as a car wash as well as some cobra mfs and other mf stuff (applicators etc)... I can't decide if I go all old school on my new passat or go as planned with duragloss lol.
