Pledge floor care vs Future
Posted by bignuggets on Wednesday, October 19, 2011 5:32 PM

Is Pledge  floor care comparable with Future shine?  I can't find any stores in my small town that sells future but most have Pledge Floor care.  The Pledge is clear.

Plege is a different animal altogether and I have never heard of anyone using it instead of Future. Future is a liquid acrylic, I believe Pledge is some sort of wax.

What used to be "Future" was rebranded by Johnson as "Pledge with Future Shine"

 

Not sure what you are seeing but here is a link to what the bottle looks like:

For any questions regarding future, consult the ultimate authority from Swanny's Models:

I've not had very good results with it, and I don't use Future or Pledge with Future any more.  Good ol' Testor's gloss coat works just fine for me.  The cost difference is really negligible in the small quantities we use on a model.

Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...

I called the 800 number on the back of the bottle and was told to use the Pledge for Vinyl Floors with Future.. It's the revamped version of Future and won't yellow

A leader who leads from the rear, takes it in the rear.

Cool!  Thanks for the tip!  I've got a bottle that I bought probably 10 years ago and I noticed that it was starting to yellow in the bottle.  Guess it's time to pick up a new one.
