Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures
Some stuff ordered in and some OTC
The ceramic 3-1 has to go back, the sprayer is FUBAR
I will end up using the Megs Hybrid Ceramic Wax anyway because it’s a 50/50 chance I will be working in at least a drizzle and a 100% chance the car will get wet overnight so the Griots is out because of the cure time prior to getting wet

When you open the All-in-one, before you shake it up, unscrew the cap and see if it's separated.
I still have mine in the clear bottle and it separates after a day or 2 (there's a whole thread on the separation).
I'm curious if it still separates, which is why it's in a green bottle.
Mine still mixes up fine after lots of shaking.

They improved the separation issue before they switched to the green bottles. I can see a definite difference between my bottle from when it first came out and the replacement they sent me later, which was before they switched to green bottles.

Absolutely, this bottle was actually sent to me by Griots to replace one I bought last spring that was in a clear bottle and wouldn't stay in suspension for more than a few hours
It probably won't get opened for a while but I will report back when it does
On a side note when I was in Autozone yesterday they STILL had the old clear bottles of this stuff on the shelf that were totally separated and the bottles were covered in dust
They had obviously been sitting there for a while
The Griot's 3-1 I bought there had a ding in the bottom of the bottle like it had been dropped but it was the only one on the shelf so I took it anyway but after i got home just shaking the product up caused it to spew out of the bottom of the sprayer
Now I have to make a trip back to the store
Oh well...

Not surprising. Would you buy something that looked like that? Griot's should have replaced them. Autozone won't sell em and they won't order any more.

If it were my local AutoZone, I'd tell the manager that.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Absolutely, but you would think Griot's would have some way to monitor the situation and ensure that their brand was represented well and hopefully in a professional manner...

I also saw clear bottles at my local Autozone last week and they were separated.
I might mention that next time I'm in there.

Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures
I exchanged that messed up Griots 3-1 ceramic spray wax yesterday
The store I went to only had one bottle and it had a ring of yellow residue on the inside of the neck of the bottle just above the level of the product that no amount of shaking would put back into suspension
I should have taken a pic
I am wondering if that’s normal
