Hello everyone,
I was in my garage looking for some old meguiar's swirl remover and show car glaze I bought a couple years ago. I found it and am now wondering if it's ok to use since it's been sitting in the garage for 2 years, I've only used the products once and would like to avoid buying more since they are expensive. Will it still work well? Also can it harm the paint? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
I also found some old car wash soap with carnauba wax beads and was wondering if that's ok to use as well, it's also about 2 years old.

If its any consolation, I had a bottle of "Kit" Carnauba wax in storage of over two years. Opened it up and got the crusty stuff at the opening out and it worked fine. Don't know what year your car is but we're only polishing the clear coat applied over the paint unless you've had it repainted without clearcoat. Good luck!

Depends on temp in your garage. If it didn't over heat, or freeze, you should be good.
I keep all my wax and stuff I use on the car, in a bag, in the house. Used to keep in in the trunk. Till I moved down here.
Good luck

Well I used the stuff this afternoon, didn't really do much for the more serious oxidation but it helped a bit, I need something stronger (or newer). Thanks for the help.

He might be sitting there trying to figure out if "DAA" is a word.
