"Revitalizing" old polishing compound?

I have some Turtle Wax polishing compound that's several years old and it's all dry and cracked. Can I still use it or should I toss it out? Will adding water "revitalize" it?

Toss it. Once its dried out, its over. Plus turtle wax isnt all that great anyways.

Funny you should say that. I'm using all Turtle Wax products...

If you're looking for an over-the-counter compound, get yourself a bottle of Meguiar's Ultimate Compound.

Toss it. There's no way to know how much water (or whatever was in there) you need to add to bring it back to life.
