proper wipes can storage?

My can of Meguiars Gold Class rich leather wipes has the wipes 50% dry & 50% drenched. Each wipe that is, So i have a "half ***" can of it thats a shame to let go to waste, but did I do something wrong? Or are they supposed to be like that and use the 50% dry side to clean excess cleaner on the seats? ( though my point is i'm hardly getting any cleaner on one seat ) I store it in my laundry room which is always around 65 - 70 degrees and the can is standing upright. I just pull & use them should I like shake the can a little before using or flip it over for a few minutes before using?

Dude, you need help. If your spending that much time worrying about taking care of a $4 item then you might be better off seeing a doctor.

you don't rotate your stock?

I flip all my cans end to end every weekend when I am done with the weekly wash. That way I don't run into this problem.
















































I would just replace the can, and not worry about it .. sounds like the lid didn't get properly closed, or it got exposed to a little heat.

I dunno. I've got a can of Rem-oil wipes (for my deer rifle), and it's the same basic concept, with the same fundamental problem: Gravity.

Gipraw seems to have the answer by rotation. If it was me, I'd rotate the can about an hour before I use them.

I roll mine around on the shelf. In short, I store them right side up, then upside down, then on the side, then on the other side...

Like you, I got sick of having 'dry' wipes... this solved my problem.
