zenster Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 I just bought a bottle and noticed some fluffy looking particles that look like clumps of dust floating inside. Kind of weird to have these particles inside a liquid re-mineralizer. Is this normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClownPlanted Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 I did not notice any at all on my bottle. I looked at my bottle and did not notice a expiration date. I wonder if your has been sitting possibly in some heat too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a manufacturing date sticker (MFD: 12132016) on the plastic wrapper of the 500 mL bottle I purchased. I think the smaller 250 mL bottle comes in a box instead. Yes, possible sitting too long. Anyhow, talking to seller right now and he'll replace bottle with a newer manufacturing date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aotf Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 I suppose there's no harm in getting it replaced (except the amount of time you spend dealing with it). I would have just shook the bottle a bit to dissolve the solids and voila, all gone. There shouldn't be any organics in there, just mineral stuff. My guess would be precipitation/crystallization following some cold cycles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess would be precipitation/crystallization following some cold cycles. The solids look organic in nature. Up close looks like snowflake food mixed with brine shrimp -- very fluffy. Definitely not crystals coming out of suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILikeAsianBooty Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 Mind showing us the bottle? I recently purchased some and it works great but the bottle quality isnt as great...it leaks when squeezed...would still buy again tho. Maybe I received a defected bottle.

The tinted bottle and my horrible camera (Note 3) made it difficult to capture a good image of the debris but here it is anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memphis118 Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 @bostoneric Does this look normal for a SL Aqua blue wizard product? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
