It looks like,circa 1970's tin design.I think the size was reduced from 15oz to 11oz,around the late 1970's,early 1980's.

I bet you could already sell it for a profit to Mike Philips or Joe (Superior Shine). They collect all kinds of antique car care product. :cool:

OK found 5 tins of the 16 and am very happy for that much.


One question the tins I found are the "older" tins they are larger in size (15oz) compared to (11oz) and do not say megs anywhere on the tin. I purchased them from a mom and pop shop and they have been in the back room "for atleast ten years" does anyone know when they were selling these types of tins?

we always laugh here when we hear 5-6 months of protection but i dont think its that absurd. none of us actully wait to see, alought it may loose some shine it is still protecting again we dont wait.. we apply coats like it going out of style (im more then guilty of this). So though it may not be to the standards on DC or Autopia it may actully give that long of protection.. only one way to find out.. and its not going to be me

agree 100% for me I owuld NEVER leave my car without a new coat of wax for that long. But for normal people the thought of not having to wax for that long of a time is a good thing
