Seems like everyone who has tried this stuff bought it off some guy selling it outside a gas station. Kind of a red flag for me right there. A coworker bought 2 cans of it and I'll admit the results look pretty good. What I'm curious about is what is it doing to the paint in the long run. Does it give you an instant shine but just slowly eating the paint away?
 
i bet the paint will be faded away after a few months. my brother got some similar product and put it on his hood, a few months later the hood's paint pretty much burned off, lol.
 
one of those guys started cleaning my headlight windows, it did somewhat restored the headlight and when you touch the glass it didnt leave any fingerprints, but i already have like $50+ in wash/wax/ microfiber towels... i doubt that thing is clearcoat safe
 
one of those bozos got me at a gas station a while ago. since it was my work truck, i let him clean a circle, and then told him to take a hike. no way in hell would i let some prick touch my car.
 
When I was a kid, my dad paid me to wax the car. He had me use something that came in orange bottles and tubs. It was a sort of opaque off-white, and smelled awful. I think it was made by Turtle Wax.

His Acura was eleven years old when he sold it. It could have been eleven months. Good (original) paint, no rust.

While I wouldn't bother with anything fancy (clay bars, multi-step waxes, curing liquids, et cetera) a single really good layer of a proper old-fashioned liquid car polish after a thorough wash will do the job.
 
Well I would not trust any of thouse with out some reliable source of info. Ill just stick to the known ways of cleaning a car properly
 
Sounds like a great idea. Grind your clearcoat with thick layers of barely moistened grit!

I've also never understood why people think it is easier to clean an entire car with something that comes out of a can or bottle instead of something that comes out of a bucket. You're not saving any work, you're doing a way crappier job, and you're destroying your clearcoat.
 
Sure seems like you'd scratch the crap out of your paint rubbing the dirt into it. On my bike I just wipe the dust off with a microfiber cloth (it's never been under the hose).
