Went to a random auto parts store in my town called "Auto Value."

Found a few DG products such as 101, 111, and a few of theor misc. dressings. Also a lot of Megs mirror products and polishes.

Well, then I half-way stood up, looked to my right, and almost $hit a brick....

Yep, Megs #16. I immediately grabbed it and asked the guy behind the counter how much is it, and how long has it been here.

Price: $13.73
Not sure how old it is, but pictures are below in its condition. It doesn't look that bad, but I think I'm going to cut off the top 1/4" and toss it. This should be fine, right?

Well, needless to say, that made my day. Now time to try it out. I've never used #16 before but I almost bought it from one of those Canada online stores, thank God I didn't!!!

no need to cut any off..it is perfect....cracks and bubbles are results from cooling after its poured....Mine look like that and not a thing wrong with them..I have a can of 16 thats close to 9 years old and performs just like it did on day 1....keep it all and use it...

AMAZING! Its like something a comic/coin collector would dream about haha, finding a rarity at an unusual place!

I heard that waxes are good forever if the weather doesnt get to it!

Did they only have ONE tin left?

Don't worry about the top! Mine looked not as good as yours and it works perfectly

I was so tempted to buy it from a UK site, but i'll wait on it. I'm still very happy with my souveran wax. Good find tho!

BTW was it this store you went too? http://www.autovalue.com/index.html

Yep, that's the site. I'm not sure if it's a local place or not?
According to the site, there are about 6 other "part" stores in my vacinity, I just might have to go check them out!

And yes, one more can left and that was it. It had a ton of dust though!
