Meg's #16 Available !

Elliot, wasn't 11/04 when the discontinuation of #16 was announced? I'm sure it would be a violation of EPA regs for Meguiar's to knowingly sell a mold release product for autos if the mold release product exceeds the VOC content specified for auto wax. On the other hand, you can never tell, marketing being what it is, whether #16 is just #8 tinted blue and in a blue can, or whether it is subtley tweaked for automotive use. I highly doubt that one of the mold releases is identical to #16 (I'm sure these are batch processed, and if you're going to change the color and the can, why not tweak it a bit to optimize it for cars?), but I also doubt there is a world of difference.

Yes, it was just about that time frame, because Mike Phillips suggested the new NXT paste as a replacement.



I agree with the possible (or not) differences between #8 and #16..... I'm curious if we are right with our guess, and then where the OP found confirmation that this product is identical to #16.

I believe I may have gotten the last couple tins. He took it off his site about 30min after I ordered 2 tins.

Hahaha.. nice! Happily I've got 6 tins... so I'm set :hifive:
 
I've got 10 cans they are NOT for sale. But if you want something BETTER check out ARDEX LABORATORIES Flint glaze wax comes in an 13oz can @ $10.00. Last just as long as a sealant. I have been using this product since 96.

People want the #16 though, otherwise they could just get Collinite...
 
I'm curious too!



I have 3 tins of #16 and know of a source who still has it in stock at $11.00 a tin plus the original pre-VOC Collinite Insulator Wax. Amazing what boredom, Google and a little patience will produce!
 
I grabbed a tin as soon as Ranney posted that thread up on his board... Haven't gotten into it yet... need to finish off some NB, MaxWax, CMW, and various others first.. Might be spring before I crack it open.
