Team Adam's Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Just a heads up... we are going to be pulling the plug on 36oz bottles in the near future due to slow sales of those sizes. To replace them we will be bringing in premium mixing spray bottles for those of you who prefer a larger bottle. The 36oz bottles just never seemed to catch on with any real popularity, moving at a rate much slower than the 16oz and Gallon sizes of the same products. The addition of this new mixing bottle will give you the option to mix, dilute, and fill your collection with the products you want in a larger size. Stay tuned as we phase out the 36oz products and introduce this new premium bottle option in the coming weeks. Smith and Periodic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Adam's Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 Yes. DWC will be offered in a 16oz or Gallon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan572 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I actually liked the 36 's so I am bummed to see them go but I have multiple 36's of my favorite products anyway. I bought the 36's because I liked a bigger bottle but also because the pricing was there. Thats my main concern, is it going to be all or nothing now? 16 oz or gallons only? Not a huge deal to me because I buy gallons usually but perhaps for the new comers that want more than a 16 but no where near a gallon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 If pricing is the primary concern though gallons are still the best deal per oz. Redbeard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan572 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 If pricing is the primary concern though gallons are still the best deal per oz. Good point, hopefully newcomers will just buy gallons. We obviously don't think twice because we know how the product performs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHL88 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I will be holding on to the 36oz bottles i have & continue to use them especially for the DWC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHTEVO Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Will these be going in the clearance section to clear the empty bottles out? I may want to grab a few as i do use them occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 Honestly, probably not. We have enough to continue to sell them for a little while longer with the products in them, when we are out we'll pull them down. No clearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyAcadia09 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Be interested to see what the bottles look like. It's understandable about discontinuing things that don't sell as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Performance Auto Detailing Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 The only 36oz bottles I cared about having were all purpose cleaner and deep wheel cleaner, and I have them now. It got old having to refill the 16oz all purpose cleaner every time I used it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimboman Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Interesting... I was just thinking I need to pick up a 36 of car wash. (to refill my 16oz bottles). The 36oz bottles are just seem awkward to use directly for detailing. 16 is just right. Could be the reason as to why they are selling slow.

Team Adam's Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 Agreed... while not completely unusable, the 36oz do feel slightly awkward in your hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j-r35 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I love my 36oz bottles for apc, detailer spray, and wheel cleaner. Gonna keep mine and just refill them. Probably would be easier to handle detailer spray for a 16 oz though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortplainman Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I am glad that I have my 36oz of the GWC and APC for my big wheels and tires. I am sure you guys are making a smart move for the company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) Total bummer. Was I the only one loving these?!?! I only use 36oz bottles for everything except for GC and SVRT Milk. I guess since I'm mobile it helps to have a larger supply on hand at all times then refill them from my 5 gals and 1 gals when needed. FWIW I can't stand the way the 16oz feels when using them. I'll be good until one breaks. But knowing how great you guys improve things I'm sure the new bottles will work well.

crowvet Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 This is why I buy 16oz bottles and gallon refills. Yep me too. I bought a 36 detail spray and I refilled my 16's with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishCurse Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I buy gallons only. The deal is too sweet not to. I fill my 16 oz every detail... I keep those needing a refill on the counter, pull the gallon, fill with threaded funnel, donesky. I do agree with others concerning DWC, DS, and APC, although I only have WW and DWC 36ers.

Holder Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I like that there will be mixing bottle available, that's the only reason I keep the 36oz bottles around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matts88yj Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I had a reply typed and the server took a poop and didn't post it. Crap. I like the 36oz sized bottles as well. Hopefully none of mine break! I use the 36oz for APC, GWC, DWC, WW and DS on nearly every vehicle I detail. Like the fact that it's less frequent fill ups and for the larger sized vehicles I know I won't run out of product while I'm in the middle of working on it. I found that I used the 16oz sizes less and less once I used the 36oz sizes. Plus I'm not sure if it's just me or not but I liked the way that DS and WW sprayed out of the 36oz nozzles than the 16oz size. Something about it just seemed to be a bit more perfect for those products spray patterns. I didn't mind the size of the bottles either. I guess I just have big hands for a short guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feets31 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I love the 36 oz bottles. You do not have to refill them as often and they can be used for a few times before needing to be refilled. I am guessing many get the bottles and then buy the gallons to refill them. Looking forward to see what the new bottles are. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I just have big hands for a short guy That has everything to do with the spray head and not the bottle. I am mixed here. I love using the wheel and tires cleaners in the big bottles because I use that much. The other stuff, like WW and DS, I prefer in 16oz. bottles. as I don't like clunking around a car with a huge bottle. Redbeard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
