Awwww....geeez, another dealer "mop & Glo" job. This is what is known in the industry as a "gross-builder" in the sales dept.

It costs the dealer $11 to apply, they gouge the customer hundreds of $$$. It does virtually nothing.

You can do the same on your own for that same $11 and it lasts just as long.

If it was as good as they make it out to sound then why are the detailers NOT using it? Something to think aBOUT......want to know what works? Ask an experienced detailer..

Update on the teflon job I just got my car back and I must say I detailed the car before I brought it to them and it looked great it had some acid rain spots or hard water stains but the car looked great. I used mothers detailing products and meguires and I was happy with the way it looked. I was waiting to be disappointed when I picked up my car
but so far I am amazed the car looks flawless and wet. it may not last but I am happy for now. They have to warrentee the paint now for five years so I am go with that
if I dont have to remove hard water stains or fallout again I will be Shocked.

That was by far the BEST wax I've ever used....and of course they discontinued it. I did buy some bottles on eBay about a year ago, but I only have one left so I use it sparingly....
