5 star shine website
From technology proven in the aerospace industry comes a paint protection system guaranteed to protect your car's finish for 5 years and keep it incredibly clean. 5 Star Shine's patented two step PPS technology took over a decade to develop and patent (patent # 5,081,171). In fact, 5 Star Shine's PPS technology is the only paint protection system ever awarded a patent by the U.S. Government and used by the US Navy.

You can order on ebay for 50+s&h. The caddy forum didn't positively feed on the product, but I may think about ordering some to do mine and dads truck with. Because both have pristine paint, and we don't want to have to repaint anytime soon.

I've had Ice. This 5 star shine is nothing like Ice. Ice is just a polish that provide maximun shine for about a week.

If you watch the video on the page Hoooo linked to, you'll see that its not a wax, its a molecular compuond that forms a covalent bond with the paint surface and neutrally charges the finish, thus not letting the negatively charged dirt particles magnetically attach themselves to the paint. Its better than anything else out there according to all the consumer ratings and to be issued a patent... well, its definately unique. Id just apply it, an then wax it as needed for additional protection.

I just don't want to have to wax the Envoy again.
I'm skeptical about it too. The US navy truly does endorse it though...

well I saw a commercial the other day that said, ''official bread of the dallas cowboys'' but that doesn't mean that its good bread... I may be comparing apples and oranges but, endorsements seem to get a little out of hand sometimes.
I don't think I would pay that much for wax

I don't think I'll be buying it. Its not a wax. Its more like a "semi-permanent paint coating".

Sounds like Perma Shine to me , remember when ( and if ) you bought your truck new they always ask if you want it 'Perma Shined' , I dunno , been waxing & buffing cars for along time and seen allot of 'snake oils' out there and if you want a good shine it's going to take a little of Mr Armstrong and a quality wax like Meguiars Gold IMO ...
