    Post Respect the work... But is it really worth that much?

    Just saw this video. Seemed like the info was stretched a bit much. What do you guys think?

    You never know who is lurking here, so I can't agree with the term "AG'er". However.....

    Paul Dalton and others have posted many jobs well over 100 hours of labor, so "weeks" doesn't surprise me, nor does the cost of the wax. You can spend $8500+ on Amazon for wax, free shipping. Imagine what else is out there. Each of these cars is one of a kind, millions of dollars, not to mention what it would cost to have it resprayed if you even breathed on it wrong.

    If you can sell it and you can cash it. Then good job.

    [SIZE=2]
    Each batch is hand made, located on an exclusive six generation family owned plantation in a small area within Rio Grande do Norte.

    F
    or two weeks out of the year, highly skilled left handed midget albino artisan wax palm floggers climb each tree selecting only the finest palm fronds from the tree. Carefully, they bring the palm fronds to our meticulously cleaned threshing floor where they begin the humane task of threshing the palm against the bare backs of virgins ( Enrique has been a state certified virgin for 25 years). While the threshing process is commencing each tear is collected and blended with lavishing care to the precious raw carnuba flakes. the flakes are stored for a period of 3 years in a hermetically sealed container and allowed to ferment under strict temperature conditions. After three years, each container's contents are poured onto a large alabaster tables where the now softened flakes are hand aerated by noble families on work release. the batches are then graded and accordingly and are then refined in an exclusively patented process that has been passed down from mouth to ear for generations.

    What comes out is a gorgeous wax powder that is dry yet feels slickery to the touch. We then infuse our secret blend of essential oils, insect pheromones along with yeti and chupacabra hormones and melt the wax in large vats on a full moon when the tide is at its highest while doing ceremonial dances to the " jetting" god.

    When poured into each container for our clients, the wax veritably glows of its own accord. then each container is inspected under hushed tones and warding gestures before being sealed.


    ... And That's why you pay so much for the product ( its the sizzle man, the sizzle).
