  • Do you randomly shake your bottles?

    I know I certainly don't continually use each and every one of my products for all my details. Certain products go to certain situations, so some are used more than others.

    What I am wondering is if you guys ever go through and shake up all of your bottles just to keep them mixed well and from going bad because there are some of those products that sit more than others and haven't been used for a while?

    I'm thinking this is a practice I should get in the habit of doing every couple months or so to ensure that my products have a maximum lifespan (with the exception of D Line products of course haha)

    I once put swirls in my paint just to see what it looked like.

    I don't always detail cars, but when I do, I prefer Meguiar's.
    Remove swirls my friends.

    I do... not methodically, but when I am sorting through stuff, I will give them a shake.

      I give my liquid products a good shake every month or so. This is one reason why i like paste lsp's.

        I shake mine up every once in a while. Maybe every 6 weeks or so.

              Never thought about it, so no, I don't.

                  I shake all the even numbered products up on the odd numbered months and the odd numbered products on the even numbered months.

                  Just kidding! When I'm looking for something I'll shake the bottles I move and sometimes I'll just grab some stuff from the back of the shelf and give it a shake. Everything probably gets shaken at least twice a year.

                    Mine never get shook up until I use them. However, it might not be such a bad idea to shake up the old stuff on occasion.

                      Sometimes when organizing my supplies, I'll shake up my mixed solutions in the spray bottles...usually Hyper Dressing, Wheel Brightener, 100% M40...things like those which tend to get creamy or goopy if you let them sit too long.

                      That's their way of telling us they must be used!

                        That is just product abuse.

                          +1. Whenever I am digging around or sorting, I do.
