FW1?
So I was at the gas station today when three men in pink shirts walk up to my car and start drooling over it, asking what mods I've done etc. after hyping me up, they show me the product they are selling and demo it on my wheels. They tried to sell me 3 cans for thirty but I said no thanks, so they gifted me a bottle for having a nice car as Long as I "promised" to come back and buy some. Anybody know if this stuff works?

^ Basically it's a waterless wash type product but if you do use it on your dirty car then it will scratch because the polymers in it don't soften dirt and debris like Ultima Wateless Wash etc. This products claims to many things for what it is and I believe Costco use to sell it 3 for $6. It'll provide 5 to 7 days of protective capabilities.
To do it properly you need to wash with a wash only product and wax with a good wax. I would tell you to keep this product in your car for emergency type situations but it's pressurized and the heat/momentum of the car can cause it to leak or explode. Maybe keep in garage for your rims? |

Run! I almost worked for them years ago. It's absolutely terrible for your paint.
The whole "loving your car" thing is just their selling technique. I had it happen to me a month or so ago.
