Has WPPE Changed Formula?

**gewb** · 07-06-2009, 07:22 PM

I purchased Wolfy's Paintwork Polish Enhancer last fall - nice product! It has a thick gel like consistancy, stays on the pad well during spreading and initial polishing.

Today I received a new bottle of WPPE and the consistancy is different - very watery. Haven't tried using it yet but I suspect it will not act the same as what's left in my first bottle.

Has anyone else noticed this change? (Only other change was the bottle cap - new one is shorter with smooth surfaces - old one is taller and ribbed.)

did you shake it very, very well ??? I dont remember a change, but usually use the Pinancle or P21S lotions.

Oh yes, I spent a looong time shaking it up - no change.

I have a correction to start on next weekend so I'll give it a try and see if it performs differently from the previous order.

I have recently experienced this same thing. I shook the bottle forever but to no avail. I have had this over a year now and it was nice and creamy at the beginning but now watery with what looks like little white chunks?? Appears that it has broken down somehow

Thanks for your reply. I didn't see "chunks" in the new bottle but later today I'll pour it out into another clean bottle and take a look.

OK, so today I polished the roof, rear bumper and lower rear quarter panels:

> Wash
> Menz IP on Orange pad (Flex 3401)
> IPA wipe
> Menz FP on White pad
> IPA wipe
> New bottle of WPPE on Blue pad

The "old" stuff from last fall has a thick creamy consistancy, "hangs" on the pad, spreads smooth and even, breaks down nicely, is easily wiped off with a MF cloth.

The new stuff comes out almost like water, soaks into the pad like water, doesn't spread well, doesn't seem to break down as well, doesn't wipe off as well and leaves thin "fogged" spots (where it didn't wipe off properly). Way too much work to remove completely!

I think there might be a problem with this last bottle...
