^Heard that too. Especially regarding interior vinyl/plastics.
But the OP is referring to this vid:

And it looks like amazing stuff. I'd like to try it too but want to know if others have tried it and post their opinions first.

Some guys on other sites have tried it. Appears to work as advertised but not for very long. Others reported issues with it looking hazy/oily/smudgy on chrome, high polish, and other high gloss finishes to the point that it made the wheels look dirty. As a matter of competitive testing I tried some... on my painted black wheels it left a rainbow/oily effect... kind of like oil stains in a parking lot puddle after rain. Stripped it off and that was that, didn't bother doing durability tests b/c of how it looked.

You don't happen to offer a comparable product, do you?

I have a can of the stuff. Haven't used it yet though, only picked it up to see if it was any better than my PBW Wheel Sealant. I've got silver painted wheels, so I'll report back here when I get my next day off and can detail my car.

I was curious about this stuff too. So I coated half a front wheel before I went to bed and let it dry over night. Drove it for a week after that. Too my surprise the coated side was very noticeably cleaner vs the non coated side. It repelled brake dust and dirt. Stuff works awesome IMO. I buy a can of it ever two weeks
