[QUOTE=chadster]We're a new sponsor to this site. Check out our product. It makes keeping your car clean simple.
I did some research on your company:
STAR SHINE is the ONLY paint protection system to be awarded a US Patent. Beware of imitators - always look for Patent 5,081,171 on the bottle. There's only one 5 Star Shine.
On your website, you claim to have been applying FSS to a 1985 Cougar
since new. How is this possible when the patent (5,081,171) was given January 14, 1992.

I don't know if you're aware of this but quite frankly, PTFE must be applied in 640 degree temperatures for it to "sinter" or bond to a surface. Crazy internet marketting you have going on here.

Infact, Dupont realeased a statement way back when, probably before either of us can remember about PTFE and all this automobile hokey pokey. This is from Professional Carwashing & Detailing magazine, January 1989.
"Dupont several years ago released a press statment about their trade mark product Teflon. In a nutshell, they said the Teflon added nothing to waxes or polishes as Teflon can and will only
bond to metal while heated to very high temps. Basically what they were doing was giving a disclaimer for all of the polished and waxes hitting the market making claim after claim about how
superior their product was just because it was supposed to contain Teflon. This came out about the time the debacle about PTFE resins and the Slick 50 product that also turned out to be a big farce."
My general conclusion is that your company is more about the internet marketting then the actual product because the product itself in various people's usage isn't that great and cannot live up to the claims on your website. Oh, and I'd really like you to clarify how you went back in time with the 1985 Cougar.
