    Re: Products you wasted your money and time on and why

    DP Wheel Glaze, which while smelling good, was a pain to work with (specifically removal) and longevity didn't warrant the work time. Good news was it pushed me to coatings sooner.

    I am on the CG forums, thats true. To call me a hypocrite, well that isn't. I do like some CG stuff, but Diablo and Mr Pink are not worth the money that you pay for them. Since you're obviously stalking me between the forums. go back and read my recent posts. I've been very honest over there, as well as here, with my assessment of CG stuff. I like VRP and Silk Shine, for example, and have said so whenever asked. I also have advised folks over there to get their foam applicators for the VRP, which I also like and will buy again.

    The name of the game here at Autogeek is respect. Everyone has a right to their preferences and to voice it peacefully. I am certain you would like the same. Let's agree we all may disagree from time to time.

    Keeping it civil and perhaps asking why would provide insight. Different environments, different perceptions, and even failed or new techniques can change the outcome from a product.

    Sorry to interject, but the thread is what product YOU thought was a waste.

    For me, any Glaze product is just a waste of time, money and effort. I rather do a AIO step like HD Speed.

    Finally got one.

    Adams Under Carridage Spray (I think it's called, I threw it out).

    Spray it on the wheel wells and leaves a slick shine.

    Trouble is by the time I got to where I was going, there was no product visible.

    Figured that can't be right so tried again.

    Same deal but next morning after 30 minute commute was gone?

    Tried different product and much better.

    HD Polish - Too much dusting that it got shelved.

    3D Eraser - didn't do anything to 12 hour old water spots

    3D Trim Care - gone after a week and after the first wash

    Adams Strip Wash - doesn't strip anything

    Re: Products you wasted your money and time on and why

    I can't really say i've ever been totally let down by any product i've bought. I usually get something i'm looking for based on discussions here and after a pretty good discussion about it...pro and/or con. I have certainly had products i have bought and never finished using because something better came along in that category. It's not that i was let down by the old product, it was just kicked in the butt by a better performing newer product.
