Well...that's why I'm interested in it. They say that the product is not a wax, and instead is polytetrafluoroethylene. Supposedly the coating gets stronger in the sun. Is there a chem expert in H-T that could verify something like this? lol.
The dictionary def of polytetrafluoroethylene is:
pol·y·tet·ra·fluor·o·eth·y·lene /ˌpɒliˌtɛtrəˌflʊəroʊˈɛθəˌlin, -ˌflɔr-, -ˌfloʊr-/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[pol-ee-te-truh-floor-oh-eth-uh-leen, -flawr-, -flohr-] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun Chemistry.
any polymer, plastic, or resin having the formula (C2F4)n, prepared from tetrafluoroethylene, noted for its slippery, nonsticking properties, and used in the manufacture of gaskets, electrical insulation, tubing, candy molds, container linings, frying-pan coatings, etc.
I've never non-stick sprayed my car though, lol.

it is probably just a synthetic polymer sealant with a bunch of fancy marketing.
why would you even want to sell a product that last 5 years anyways? youd go out of business in no time.

*shrugs* Why does autozone sell lifetime brake pads or brake lines (I just bought some), or axles, etc. etc.? They do, but they're still in business.

Its Teflon. Now teflon is resistant to everything till about 600 degree so it should work. The fact that it has fluorine gives it a dipole effect which is also true. The real question is what is the negative charge stuff u place on the car first, that is the real deciding factor. Me i would just get some 3m wax, it seems to be the best and i dont mind waxing my car every too weeks. **** it is like a religious experience, smoke a phat bowl and shine up the crx

I, too, enjoy waxing my car. There's no way that info-mercial crap could get within 10 ft of my paint.
