    I don't see a problem with it. That's like 50 years ago saying I'm sick of all this wax/sealant stuff. You don't have to detail with any of it but it's good stuff.

    Third - I tell a little joke in my classes and in general when talking shop in person, it goes like this,


    In the time it takes me to turn in a circle, there's a new ceramic paint coating on the market


    While that's an exaggeration, and because of my artificial leg I don't turn in a circle as fast as most of you can do, (think Hokey Pokey), it's funny because all good humor is based in truth. And the truth of the matter is there are lot of new products being introduced all the time.

    I have people contact me often because they see me as the face or contact person for Autogeek. They contact me and tell me about their new paint coating, (usually), and then ask,

    What do I need to do to get this into the Autogeek.net store?


    That's when I tell them the normal canned response I've been asked to share for situations like these,



    Thank you for your inquiry. Please send your info to

    info@autogeek.net

    Your information will be routed to the correct department and if there is any interest in your product you will be contacted.

    Sincerely,

    Mike Phillips



    But just to provide some balanced perspective,

    It used to be we complained because there were so few choices in car care products, now we complain because there are so many....


    You hit the nail on the head there. People will always complain no matter what. Its human nature. Pointing out the faults in everything makes us feel better about are own faults. It helps us rationalize our own problems

    You missed the point of my post completely. And thanks for giving me the option of not using them if I don't want to. I was under the impression Ithere was an obligation somehow.
    JUST KIDDING! Saw the opportunity to to be a smartass and ran with it.

    What I meant was, I'm tired of a the copy cat product releases solely for the purpose of keeping up with the Joneses, regardless if that product is any good. The quality of the various products varies drastically across the board. It's just become a yawn fest.
