    I just bought a bottle of Optimum Polish, I flip that little thing on the top and its a pain in the butt to get the Polish out of it on to my pad. I tried drilling the hole larger and shaking/smacking the bottle on my hands, still it very difficult for the polish to come out of the bottle. Best way for me is to unscrew the cap and apply to a pad



    anyone have this problem? :bolt

    Yes, I have. On my last two bottles. I presume yours (the polish) was a bit clumpy? Didn`t used to be that way.

    Dunno if this will help you or not, but I bought some of those small 2oz dispenser bottles and use them to dispense the OP.....no problems so far.

    This topic has been covered a few times this week. Here`s one of the threads that seem to cover pretty much all the bases.

    I noticed the same thing with mine. I am surprised they wouldn`t correct a problem like this with either a less clumpy product or a new dispenser. Anyone want to write optimum? lol

    I just get a coat hanger and get the top bit and stick it in the top and all fixed

    It`s nowhere near as bad as menzerna powergloss or IP
    Car care/detailing sadly isn`t high on the agenda for 98% of australians.

    I`m sure they know about the problem. It`s not the despenser, it`s the product. It`s supposed to be, well, not clumpy.
