Wax that lasts 5 years!!

What a joke. I went on ebay to look at some cars for sale and saw this crap (not sure if anyone else saw it).

Here are some key points for their ad:

PROTECTION UP TO 5 YEARS for the entire car (You will also discover differences months and months later.)

Nice spelling error here:
However, the polymer can be definitely applied on two or three cars. We have tested it. We usually sell this ploymer without a urethane sponge applicator and Microfiber Suede at professional detail services in Japan for $62.00(7,000yen) with the same amount of ploymer and size of bottle. You get a great deal for this first offer.

Anyways, I just thought it was pretty funny so I thought I would share.

Heh, yeah, it's definitely a joke. What's funnier is that "Kamikaze" is the same product as CrystalGuard that has been spamed on several boards lately, most notably import boards (no surprise there huh? lol). When Kamikaze was brought over here, it was liscensed as CrystalGuard I believe. CrystalGuard also advertises that it uses "glass fibers" in the sealant. The stuff is ultra-expensive for the tiny amount you get, and IMO it really doesn't make a car look "freshly waxed" at all. I was very underwhelmed from the pix that I've seen from actually customers that claimed to use it.

I predict that CG won't be around too long once people find out for themselves that for the price you can get just as good or better results from far less expensive products.... Most of the people that are using CG don't know the difference anyhow, they just believe all the hype....

From the few Zainoers who have tried it, most are sticking with Zaino.....

:no: :no: :no:

I have two products that we have been testing, one products claims (and I kid you not) that once applied it will protect your car for LIFE, the other product claims to last "at least 5 years" well both products were dead after 3 weeks. :(

Yeah and my oil lasts for 5 years, in a daily driver !
