Anyone Tried New Dupont Products?

[silvermate]

hey guys i saw a commercial on TV last night about a new car care product line from Dupont called Dupont Teflon products....

the line includes; wax, quik detailer, car wash, and others

anyone used or have seen any of these products yet??

I tend to stay away from any product that claims to have teflon in it. For one thing in order to provide a no-stick barrier teflon needs to be applied at over 600 degrees so a spray cleaning product that sports "Teflon" is little more than a marketing gimmick.

That said some people at Autopia have tried them and said teflon aside they aren't bad.

interesting.....

so is it a synthetic wax or......whats the base or make up of the product?

[SW03ES]

I'm not sure, its probably synthetic though.

Steve,

I have spoken directly to the managing director of a company in the UK who offer a similar product.

The teflon is not used as a coating on the metal - that indeed is a ludicrous suggestion - but as a catalyst between some of the chemicals used in the product.
