I have heard that this takes care of or atleast hides clear coat issues?

?? Wouldn't this be a gigantic dust magnet?

I personally would never put it on my Vette, it would be a big mess. I actually don't use the stuff at all any more.

Isn't that a trick dealers used in the past to hide imperfections on cars?

I don't use there products either.. I heard some old tales about causing more problems than helping
(I could be wrong) but never had faith in them.
I always cleaned my dash and interior with a water
dampened soft cloth and never had any issues.
As for putting it on the paint i don't think i would try that!

I don't think that would really have much of a filling effect... I've heard of people using it on clear plexiglass to hide scratches temporarily, but the lasting effect is actually a negative as it will cause yellowing over time.

If you're looking for something to HIDE imperfections you want a glaze. Check out this thread for info on the hand glazing product we just released Friday:

Never.
In fact, I'm using mine up on the underside plastic pieces and do not plan to buy it again.

I used to use that stuff 35 years ago during the custom Van era ,it will turn any plastic you have white after awhile and also it does attract dust.

I did that after going on a all night crack binge once. It was so bad that I quit using crack after that. :D

Please, don't disrespect your car like that. :doh:

I think that is in the same category as sawdust in the engine, making it run smooth long enough to sell the car! lol

Word! Hulu is great for stuff like that... I signed up for beta testing long before it went public and got accepted. I use it all the time to watch older shows or catch a new show I missed.

Plus with the LED TV being networked I can stream the content to it :banana:
