...A HECK OF A BARGAIN !!!
The Delvac 1 Jugs were originally sealed with thin foil below the cap, but we found out that this causes leaks when UPS handles it, so we put in CAPLUGS to prevent leaks

Of course, people are a lot smarter than that, and called Mobil, which obviously confirmed MIROX as not a distributor.
He never said he was a dealer,and he puts those very same caps on his own product as well. I have seen those very same caps used before as well to prevent leaks during shipping. You didn't get that the concept was to prevent leaks during shipping,especially when dealing with UPS.
I know of a few UPS guys who like to brag!! Believe me,the caps work and are needed.
Unless UPS is stomping on the bottles, dropping cinder blocks on them, driving over them....
Some of us who are out of High School and live and work in the real world know othewise about what goes with shipping,..because we have seen it.
Get back to me in 10 years on that one after you graduate!!
