I'm sure for the average soccer mom in her minivan or Camry, this stuff would probably work great. But when you're a self-professed perfectionist like most of us here, you will only accept perfection. Of course it wouldn't meet any of our stringent standards here. Our cars wouldn't be as nice as they are if we didn't demand the absolute best products we can get.

well it works but takes like 30mins to dry way too long...and will just be too costly to keep up

thats funny...I just saw the comercial and said "what a crock"

I guess I'll stick to leaving the wash bay at 4 MPH till my tires are somewhat clean then holding it at about 80 or so for a few miles,that works pretty good then dry off whats left by hand
