Does Mother's Aluminum Polish turn to soup at high temperatures?

Opened up my "economy size" can of aluminum polish and it literally looks like soup or milk. Its been 101 degrees outside all day and just a bit cooler in the garage when the polish was stored.


I may have put a little water in it before because it was drying out.

I dont know...

Yes it happened to mine as well. It seems to melt. You got to keep it in a cool place.

Sure does. Just mix it up real well and then throw it in the the fridge for a bit. Should thicken it up again.

Yep. It will break down to a liquid form in hot temperatures. Just stir it up and let it sit in a cool place and you will be good to go again.
