I reached out to our chemist to ask. He said it looks like it may have been burnt in production and you should have it replaced. Every jar is hand poured, and mistakes can happen. Before you buy another, send an email to orders@adamspolishes.com, they may replace it for free. And no promises, but send me a PM with your contact info and I'll ask about it tomorrow at the HQ to maybe get a jump on it for you.

Thanks, I sure appreciate your help!

that looks like it got hot at one point and it separated.  i would toss it and get some new wax.

 

 

I wonder if it happened on the way to me in shipping, it's looked separate in layers like that since I've had it. 

The way it has the white-ish look is what's new.....and the tan color looking down in to the container.....very strange.

Either way I think y'all are right, time for some new stuff.

I'm thinking you might need to replace that.  I've had a good bit of Patriot over the years. Mine never did that.  

Was yours layered like that on the sides?

Mine was like that from the start and I thought that was how it was mixed...maybe it was messed up from the start?

I have had this container for about 1 year and 6 months and done 6 or 7 complete wax jobs and it's getting worn down some in the container.

I'm just concerned because it seems to be starting to look old....or older looking.

I've always stored it in a closet in the house so it hasn't gotten too hot.

Is this how it's suppose to look as you get lower in the container ??

Thanks for the help!

It took me a bit to make the switch to Leather Condition, mainly because of the leather items I have and have had for so many years.  Once I started using it on the vehicles, Leather Conditioner became the only product that I use on seats, dashes, and door panels.  If you have a tire cover on Jeep or such or one of the ones in the trunk it works great on them also.

It does leave a nice rich look I can see why you switched.

I used it a years ago and my bottle got a little old so I replaced it with the Interior Detailer and liked it quiet a bit....still use it on the the dash and door panels, but I might switch to the leather conditioner again after seeing how great it did on the seats.

I've never had any issue with embroidery on my dash or seats.  I go right over it and wipe it the same way.   That's 17 years of using it that way, 2 cars.

Thanks for the info, that is good to hear!

Either of these can be used on ventilated seats, but you'll want to work them into the applicator pad before applying to get a nice, thin, even layer.

Great, thanks for the reply I'm anxious to try it.

One thing I was curious about, I have never had seats with embroidery on them until now...do I need to be careful of those or will this not hurt the color at all ?

I was thinking "porous" didn't include ventilated seats so I asked on Amazon and got this response from Adams.

Non porous interior surfaces include leather, vinyl, dashboards, plastics, etc. This product can be used on ventilated leather seats because the material is non porous. Suede, alcantara, carpet & upholstery would be considered porous, or containing a fibrous surface, therefore not recommended. As a rule of thumb, it is best to not dress surface that has a nap to them. Thanks!
