It might me a government regulation to get rid of the petroleum based products too, who the hell knows. Anyway, they all smear and take longer to buff out, expecially in cooler weather. I have went back to Turtle Ice in the spray bottle. That stuff is about as easy to buff out as anything I have ever tried and it does shine like a diamond in a billy goats butt.
Ok, thanks that 's what I was wondering. I looked for some old Pledge at the store last night they all had the dreaded white label stating no petroleum!
