Hi everyone,
This is my first post I am new to this online forum and new to detailing. I just recently attended a Do it Youself seminar and decided to purchased a PCXP to do my vehicles at home. I figured a good starting point, since i have many cars at home to choose from.

I had one question that i forgot to ask at the seminar. When u have a bottle of compound and it turns from solid to liquid is it time for a new one????? I have tried shaking it up till my arm was going to fall but it does nothing. Any suggestion I would appreciate.

Thanks again for letting me join this great place.

No, thank you for deciding to join are little group of wacko's. Welcome to Autogeekonline

When you say your compound has turned to liquid, when your pour it onto a pad is the first thing to come out a watery substance (like unshaken ketchup) if so, then yes, your compound is pretty much ruined IMO. I've seen others continue to use a product that has liquified, but I highly doubt it is performing as it is intended to. Plus all that shaken is a PITA

Good luck, and again welcome to AutogeekOnline :buffing:
