I think he wanted to know where, not by who. Would the fuzion have froze if it was made in Palm Beach? Our companies products are made in 2 different places(1 for powder, 1 for liquid). Both not at our warehouses. I would assume they contract out for bottling, mixing and etc. But I could be wrong.

Good point, didn't think about that one. During the tour of the warehouse at DetailFest, Max stated that they do indeed contract out the mixing of the chemicals using their proprietary formula/direction. I don't recall Max specifically addressing the bottling, but I would assume a lot of their products are bottled locally since they have TONS of empty bottles on their shelves. I remember him saying they have to order a minimum of like 60K bottles...

Max showed the bottling area during the tour. They get the product in and bottle/label it in house.

Yeah if the product was frozen, it wasn't made in Palm Beach. Unless it was mixed in a freezer.

I'm careful about purchasing wax from certain vendors during the winter months. I've talked with too many people who have had messed up products because of freezing temp. None of the people bought from autogeek, or any division of Pinnacle though.

I ordered some CMW back in early Nov, and it ended up coming from NY. A warehouse close to me was out, so they had to ship it from NY. The temps were below freezing, but luckily the product was unharmed.

I have never seen any damage from cold paste waxes, some liquids do take on a different form. Rule of thumb is no temp extremes the shifts between them do the most damage. (ie. hot to cold)

Pinnacle products are indeed owned and made in Florida !

It was cold enough here a few times this past winter to have ice on the windshield before going to work. I know, tough south Florida winter!

Our paste waxes and liquid car care products are made by our chemist off site and shipped to our Stuart, FL facility for labeling and distribution.

All bottling and labeling for our liquid products is done on site, the paste waxes are ready to label once they arrive here. It was during transit that the paste waxes were subject to freezing temperatures.
