Default Has Anyone tried?.......

The two year Amour All replacement that's advertised on TV
by the bandana guy on Counting Cars?
Sounds like snake oil but don't know if this guy whored himself
out for a few bucks or not.

Anybody try it?

I havent heard of that, but Armour All is in fact snake oil. He probably didnt ***** himself out personally, but Im sure A&E television networks, whom he has a contract with, sure didnt have a problem doing it for him.

I don't think it was actually an Armor All branded Item, it was like that "Wipe New" stuff you see the commercials for.
here it is https://www.getdetaildoctor.com/?MID=3045704

I'm betting its some kind of clear acrylic, basically clear nail polish and a sponge to apply it.

Yes, That's the stuff I'm talking about and if it is something like....

clear acrylic, basically clear nail polish

It will cause more problems than it would solve unless the car is for sale.
I was looking online for an MSDS sheet and could not find any should be
one somewhere it would most likely say whats in it.

Default Amazon Reviews

Found some Reviews 3pgs of them here's a sample......

I ordered on line via their website a promotion pkg and was after the fact told that I was automatically enrolled in a monthly shipment plan and that my card would be billed $29.?? per month, BUT that I could cancel this by calling. 1st this is not in print on their website where I ordered and second after 6 phone calls I was told that I was not in the system and would not be billed. No confirmation of this was offered. Seems like a bad company to do business with. In addition, product does not work


Here's the rest.......
