GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

I just find this on ebay;http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...36475It seem's very commercial,maybe to exagerated.

Looks like one of the "never wash or wax your car again" things they've had at service stations all over this area. They've got a little kiosk thing set up and come over when you're getting gas, asking if they can clean your car for free to show off this great new product.I told if they touch my car I'd shoot them. (Not really, but I wanted to.)When high-class detail shops start using it, maybe I'll check into it....

I would actually miss washing and waxing my car. I enjoy doing it. I will stick with my Turtle Wax thank you very much.

strangely (or not), washing and waxing our cars and my bike is one of two things that relaxes me...the other being firearms...

We have talked about this in the "best car wax" thread to a slight degree. This stuff looks legit, and is actually used to prevent corrosion on some Navy equipment. I almost bought it when I first bought the vibe, but the price made me run for the hills. Check out their homepage and see for yourselves. I don't know if anyone here has ever used it, so I have not heard any personal experiences.http://www.5starshine.com/Found one of the 5 Star reps postings on a forum. He was very civil even though people were being complete jerks to him. He also explained exactly how the 5 star system works. There is even a $20 discount code on there. When my Tech Wax wears off in a few months, I may try it just to tell eveyone whats up. http://www.clubcivic.com/board...=4304

Not only are firearms relaxing...I find heavy metal music VERY relaxing as well.

ok, I got my 5 star kit in today. I did every step, clay and everything, and (removed)!!! Now granted, my vibe is only two weeks off the lot, but it didn't look this good when I bought it! This stuff makes the paint look and even feel like glass. It is very very shiny. We are supposed to have some rain tomorrow, this is Florida we get alot of rain. I will post to tell you how it held up w/ the rain.

yeah! i'd like to hear how things went...checked out the website and it seemed pretty cool until i saw the price...youch

Quote, originally posted by ramenboy... » until i saw the price...youchYeah, I wanna know how it works before I sink that kind of money into car wax.

The actual patentAnd I'm not impressed with any paint protection that costs this much... looks like a case of "if you price it high enough - they'll think it's gold"

Quote, originally posted by kharman »amen!...this may sound strange, but washing and waxing my car actually relaxes me...does this happen to anyone else?...Ditto... my neighbors joke about how much I clean our cars. But it puts me in a good mood to see a filthy bug slaughtered car transformed into a dealer showcase in a few hours. It makes the monthly payment just a little less painful when you're paying for a shiny clean car than a festering pile of bug guts.

Man those bottles look small, if it was as much wax as the stuff i usually use then maybe it wouldnt be as bad. how many wax's you think you'd get out of that?

Good point!
