| Re: 5 Star Shine - Has anyone used it? ywrotk:
I was kinda' hoping that the snake oil salesmen--any of them--would step forward and say "Yes, we'll give you your money back if your now waxed car doesn't shine more than it did when unwaxed." Speaks volumes about all of their products when they run off and hide--huh?
If I were selling the stuff and I knew my product would outshine his method, I'd step forward and say "Yes Mr. an01sts, if our product doesn't make your car shine more, we'll give you your money back, including s & h, for the return of the unsued portion."
Even if they knew it wouldn't--and they would have to refund my money--you would think that it would be worth their while to shut me up because I'm bad for business. Even if I posted that it didn't make a difference and I got a refund, their rebuttal would be "This guy is an @$$hole. Look at all of our satisfied customers." The problem is that other finikey people may wake up and say, "@$$hole has a point! I cannot see a difference either. I want my money back too."
That's the reason why the no reply. When being called on selling bogus products, the best solution is to ignore me and hope that everyone else, likewise, ignores me.
Don't take my word for it: There is other documentation, promoting snake oil, that proves that these products are a wast of time, effort, and money. Read up and you'll see
<I haven't applied any weasel piss to the car for over 18 months--I'm lazy--and the water beads just like the first day I waxed it. All I do is wash it.>
Excuse me! The wax is long gone after 18 months. It shines--just like my unwaxed pushing 4 year old car--because waxes are snake oil and washing techniques are the key to fine finishes. Yep, all I do is wash it too!
Yes, I'll post the way I wash my car because the shine/luster is controlled by the way you wash your car, not by snake oils. I want to do it on a word processor so that my spelling quirks aren't visible; after all, I would like to present myself at a higher level than snake oil salesmen. I'll get it up in a few days, and it will be on its own thread. |
