Wheel Brightener Gallon Jug Pin Hole Leak

[ca2kjet]

This is just an FYI to Meguiar's as well as everyone on these forums. My gallon jug of Wheel Brightener, for some strange reason, has developed a pin hole leak on the bottom. The jug has been kept in a cool environment and the shelf has always been clean. Don't know if this has happened for anyone else but I just wanted everyone to be aware of the possibility. Don't want to wake up one morning to discover it dripping all over the place.

That also happened to my gallon jug of last touch. But I think that was because of the pump's tube pushing down against the bottom part of the jug. Still that shouldn't cause the jug to crack and leak.

Yea, I've read a few threads of people with holes developing from pump straws. It's odd though since I don't use them and a hole developed. I wonder if I could buy a new, but empty, jug from Meguiar's

I borrowed a few 1 oz pumps from work.....the tube was a few inches too long....but a simple solution would be to trim it prior to using??

This is exactly what I did after that cracking incident.
