Blackfire Pad Cleaner, and Microfiber Cleaner Plastic Containers

[sillybinaries]

I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this issue. I have three brand new bottles of these products I purchased last fall “1 – Pad Cleaner, and 2 Microfiber Cleaner bottles”.
I only detail several times a year, however have noticed that the bottom of these containers have started to breakdown and leak.


I contacted AG a few weeks back and they were very kind enough to replace my pad cleaner, but now after further inspection I have lost more than ¾’s of the fluid on the microfiber cleaners. I store all my products in my basement that has a very constant temperature of 62. To be clear I am not looking to stir up any negative to AG, and am not asking for two new bottles of microfiber cleaner to be replaced.


Has anyone else ran into this by chance?



What I am wondering, is there a manufacture defect with a certain batch of plastic bottles, or is the product susceptible to being corrosive and eating away at the plastic. I have a few bottles of Pinnacle microfiber cleaner that I have had over a year, and the product container is still very solid. I need to stay away from BOGO's




Thanks everyone!

Yep, had the same problem with the Blackfire product. Fortunately it was stored in a spill tray and I noticed the leak soon enough where not much product was lost before the remainder could be transferred to another container.

Oddly enough, two of my pad cleaner bottles broke at the top where the threads are. One of the microfiber cleaner bottles developed a tiny leak at the bottom.

For the leaks, you just have to put a tiny dot of Marine Goop or Marine Epoxy on it an its sealed for life.

Out of Curiosity, did the bottom of the bottle look like this? All three of mine have slowly deteriorated.

We had a small batch of bad bottles.

Send me a PM or give me a call and have your order number handy, I'll gladly replace the microfiber cleaner.

Ahhh that makes sence. Thank you for the clarification.

I appreciate the offer to replace the microfiber bottles. Though it was not necessary, it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I've had this same problem with two bottles of Blackfire pad cleaner bottles and lost more than 3/4 each time. Rather than buying more I'm simply using an all purpose cleaner which seems to work well, but not as good as the BF pad cleaner. I will buy more of it because it works so well, but after finding a 'stronger' bottle that hopefully won't crack.
