Default 5 Star Shine - Paint Protection System

So, I was reading a detailing question on waxing here and saw an ad above talking about why wax is "bad" for your car.

Interesting article...expensive stuff.

Has anyone heard of, used, or purchased this stuff?

I'm personally not in the market, but am always interested in new information and knowledge.

It'* a polymer. Just like Liquid Glass. Some of their claims seem a bit wild to me.

That'* what I thought. Some of the claims were pretty up there.

The prices are listed waaaaaayyyyyyy down at the bottom and there'* a reason for that. $67 and $97 for the kits!

Makes me think that maybe this is a sow'* ear dressed up to look like a silk purse.
