    Has anyone else experienced mold?

    Hey guys!
    Has anyone else experienced mold in their DP Wheel glaze? When I brought it down over the weekend to put some on my wheels... I saw mold in the actual glaze and some in the lid. I also could not think of any factors of what might have caused the mold since I:

    1. Keep the Wheel Glaze at room temp.
    2. Shake it once a month to keep from settling
    3. Bought it in June, so age is not really a factor
    4. Lid is sealed on TIGHT.... Every single one of my chemicals are shut tight and I double check each time

    Any reason why so I can prevent it from happening again? Thanks!

    DP is one of my personal favorites.... so I just want to know how to keep it from molding or otherwise I will have to throw the can of it away!

    Were you using a damp rag or possibly a wet wheel when applying and scooping from jar ??? Mold commonly takes water so my only thought.

    Not at all... just my dry microfibers I get from Sam's. Does the glaze contain water in it? Hmmm.... not sure. Thanks though.

    I did a few years back. I ended up just throwing it out. I like DP products but don't care much for the wheel glaze.

    Thanks Gary. I tried the 476 on my wheels and like it better than the glaze. Like you said, I love DP products but the wheel glaze seems to need a revision. I cannot just throw it away since the darn thing was around $16 I could have spent on something else!
