I previously bought a gallon of OPP almost 3 years ago. The remaining portion can be seen right in the small bottle. The new gallon which I split with a mate can be seen on the left

The new stuff is yellow and gets chemical separation.

The old stuff is white. Almost identical in colour to their wax. In the 3 years it has never suffered any type of separation.

When I bought it the yellowing was immediately obvious. I contacted the supplier and they said something about the sun could effect its colour but will still work the same. At the time I asked I had not spotted any separation.

I have been told as far as they are aware the formula has not change but they don't even look like the same product. I have not tested the new stuff yet but concerned about its quality. Should I be or just shake it before use?

 
Shake it, I have had a gallon for about 3 years myself and it has always separated when sitting for a long time (just like the one pictured). Nothing wrong with it.
 
Oh and mine sits in a dark closet so it has nothing to do with the sun.
 
Thanks. As long as the separation is normal. Don't know why the original batch behaved differently
 
Your welcome and I just looked at my gallon and it's separated again. My gallon also has a New Formula label so yes it was changed a while ago.
