    I feel like if this is happening TC should stand behind their product. Glad that I saw this, will now know what not to order. For the price of it this shouldnt happen...

    Quoted from NJGecko:

    Just to make sure no words are mis-taken here, below is what Allen said to me
    Those products are from 3M …
    Never heard of any problems, but anything is possible after a year or more…
    I don’t know if it’s useable or not , to be honest.
    I CAN GIVE YOU FREE SHIPPING OF YOU PURCAHSE A REPLACEMENT.

    So free shipping if you bought more of a the product that will be messed up in the same way and is just a rebranded 3m product any way. Sounds legit. Now we just have to wait for the sleuths to figure out what 3m products these are...

    Quoted from jdoz2:

    So the treasure cove kit is relabeled 3m products? I guess I was naive and thought they made their own blend of stuff.

    You were not naive, they said on their site they formulated it. That is really low...
    "We even formulated our own PowerCut compounds to do the job right, with the least work, while providing the highest possible shine."

    Quoted from meSz:

    I used the TC kit once and switched to the 3M and Meguires products above and the end result is the same. The big difference is, when you purchase the 3M and Meguires products off of Amazon you will pay about the same as the TC kit BUT 3M comes in quart size and TC comes in 8 oz size! So if you go with 3M product you will get more for your money.
    In all fairness to TC the 3M polishes also separate over time. I contacted 3M about this and was advised "all polishing compounds will separate over time but if you shake it vigorously it will still be effective"!
    Lastly, if you go on ebay you can find the 3M polishing pads for less than most other places! The 3M pads last longer than the ones that TC sells.
    I hate to steer people away from TC as I would prefer to support a pinball business but if you can save cash and get better quality products (pads) it's hard not too!

    Care to make a post about all of the products you use and order you used them? Im sure many would be grateful.

    Quoted from ranchdrsn:

    It could very well be a mix of multiple 3m products to create the formulation.

    deceptive if that is what they really did... If that is the case I custom formulate alcoholic drinks all the time!
