    I would be interested if anyone has tried this product.
    I'm sure Big Doug is aware of this stuff.
    Would be nice if there is something that resists the summer heat.

    Never tried. I like Collinite 845. Seems to last awhile and is easy to put on and take off.

    This 5 Star Shine stuff has PTFE which is Polytetraflouorethylene (Teflon)
    I'ts unlike any kind of carnuba or other based wax. I just saw the article at the Corona Airport for detailing planes. I was just wondering if anyone has any experiance with this or similar product.
    I'm thinking for a base coat and then normal ongoing maintenance @ wipedown

    I have used their products before, not cheap but seem to work pretty well

    I used their product on the Magic and it really really kept it cleaner longer and washing it basically consisted of turning on the hose and then drying it.
    I also have it on our vehiles (all black) and the same with these. Less clean time between washes (it doesn't attract dirt as fast), when I wash it, I hardly need to do any more than rinse it off and then dry it and it has a great shine.
    That's it on my opinion.

    Thank you for the comments. I am going to try this product.
    Hoping it will last in the heat

    Here is what your up against.
    Teflon last 4-6 months but isn't a brilliant shine like wax
    Wax last 2-4 months and is brilliant in color (shine)
    When a customer uses a Teflon sealer from the factory it makes my job as a detailer very hard, wax is tough to get off the car, washing the car and then drying leaves streak marks and then im chasing myself.
    Teflon on a boat ? ive never detailed a boat with it on so i can't give any insight on this, i just know that i tell my customers who buy a new car to not fork over a grand or two for this gimmick, if they absolutely want it i'll do it for them at a fraction of the cost but i won't keep their car up for them cause its tough to work with, this has been my experience with cars though.
