Shelf-life of the Klasse Twins? Wheel polish question too...

I've had a bottle of the AIO and the SG for almost two years now. Since my car is garaged in the winter neither bottle has been used much.



I'm getting ready to do my spring detail (thus ordering some detailiing supplies). Both products look fine...I'm just curious if anything in them could have broken down since I purchased the bottles a couple years ago. (I know, sort of a dumb question).



Also, part of my wheels are a little on the "dull" with a numebr of clearcoat (can't feel) scratches side. What would be a good polish to use to on my wheels that isn't too agressive where I could remove the clear-completley but is agressive enough where "elbow-grease" would be sufficient. I wouldn't be able to use my PC on the wheels, obviously. :grinno:



Any help would be great!



:thx
 
Most Car detailing product last very long so your two years you should be fine just make sure you shake it up very well (someone once suggested use a clear container to hold you product to see how it look in...just make sure it consistence is the same when you first bought it and always do a test spot....wheel if you wheels are clear coated you might want to wash it off then clay the wheels then try your aio and see if that works then seal them with Sgx2 ...
 
My Klasse twins are a *LOT* older than yours and they're still fine. You have at least five more years before you need to even think about it (assuming you don't let it cook or freeee or something). Probably a lot longer than that, I use a lot of really old products...just keep the lids/caps on tight.



I wouldn't worry *too* much about being too aggressive with the clear on the wheels. It's usually pretty tough and thick stuff. I use the old 3M PI-III RC (05933) and it's not anywhere near too strong (wish it were stronger).
 
Sweet. Thanks for the replies!



Regarding the wheels. Yes, they are clearcoated. I've used AIO on them before and it didn't have enough "bite" (obviously). I'm just curious what may be slightly more agressive that could work well...wait, let me rephrase that: I know there's a bunch of different polishes out there that would work, but what would be one or two that I should try?
