I was determined to prevent this problem from repeating itself on my new Honda Accord. Of course, just like always the Honda dealer would have been more than happy to sell me a protection plan for $500. This is some kind of sealer (might even be 5 Star) combined with an insurance policy. Needless to say I passed on that and decided I would do a better job keeping wax on the car to prevent past problems with the clear coat.

A few days ago I came across a post on this board that talked about the 5 Star Shine product and I was intrigued. I clicked on to their web site and decided to give it a try. For $50 it was worth a shot. Sure I thought fifty bucks was a bit steep for some sealer compound that I wrongly equated with wax. I had heard about PTFE and I know how slippery it was so I placed an order.

It took about an hour to apply the product. My new car was in pristine condition before application. The paint didn't have a speck of dirt on it. This was nothing compared to the results I received after applying the 5 Star treatment. My car is now downright slippery. It is like the coating of a new fry pan. IT IS AMAZING! The car now has an unusually deep shine and is very slippery. I can see how dirt and grime will just slide off the finish.

I am not a paid endorser of this product. I got the $20 coupon just like everyone else can. If the shine can last for 5 years I will be amazed. From what I have seen so far this product is worth the price... The next time a dealer wants to soak you for $500 tell him to jump in the lake and spend 90% less on this stuff and do it yourself.
