Cosmetic blemishes as long as the caps are good:p.
I know many people hate removing metal clips off gallon cans, but if you ever drop a can with clips, as I did the other day, you'll be glad for them.
 
Reducer ill use what is needed per temp. Clear is the only thing stick to the very slow activator on.
 
Wow, it was definitely more than just dropped or thrown around judging by the creases in the cans. did that come fedex or ups?
 
i get alot of stuff looking like that. i dont understand either because there is usually no box damage, the cans are packed real good inside and are usually not touching each other.
 
It looks like that one shipped fedex. On the next order you can specify UPS to see if that makes a difference. Same with you Jim, just request it be sent by the other.
 
Thanks, im not really worried about it. The can just ends up in the trash anyway. Whats inside is the important part! i honestly dont think there is a difference between the 2 of them. Both will throw your stuff around
 
Oh for sure, the shape pf the cans don't bother me at all. Just glad none of them were leaking. I've honestly never had a damaged can show up unless I purposely purchased one with a discount. I think this is in all relation to the overflow these shipping companies may be feeling right now.
 
I usually pour half of what ever it is in another can. Just have to make sure it's the same exact product. Less spillage when pouring. I've never had any damaged cans show up tho.
 
Peanuts. I've never had a problem. It has to be the people who move the boxes. Once ordered a bulkhead for a bronco. It arrived twisted and bent. They sent another one. It arrived twisted and bent. Soooo , we just fixed it and used it.
 
I think they changed to ones that were more environmentally friendly. Last ones I got were pink I believe. We just use them when we ship stuff anyway. That way nothing is wasted.
 
Years ago during my failed attempt at College, I had a part time evening job on the loading dock of the local UPS Hub. If you'd have seen how the packages were treated it's a wonder every box delivered by UPS doesn't look like that.
Since Barry and SPI (?) switched to FedEx I get my stuff in under 24 hours! Two States away! +1 for the peanuts switch as well. Instead of throwing all those plastic ones away I just dump the new degradable ones in the field and watch them disappear.:)
