Hey guys so i just bought a 5 gallon jug of APC+ and was going to fill up one gallon jugs that is running low that i bring with me on mobile jobs.I noticed on jug that it says do not reuse container.This in an older container that i bought probably over a year ago and all of my newer detailer line jugs dont say it.Why do the older ones say not to reuse and the new ones dont?? What harm is there by reusing these jugs??? Thank you in advance!!!!

Might be more as far as used for water, mixing other chemicals, etc.

I'm thinking an advisory against reuse may be to avoid potential litigation should some numbnutz send their kids on a picnic with a gallon of Kool Aid in a Wheel Brightener container. Might have some adverse effects mixing chemicals if there's some residue left from an incompatible product as well.
I would have no problem reusing containers for the same product that was originally in it.

Changes in wording on a package can be driven by a variety of sources, from updates to the product to legal requirements. In your case, where you want to refill an empty gallon jug of APC with either straight or diluted APC, you're perfectly fine.
