Summary Worst... ever. The Devil (November 6, 2009)

Reviewer's Comments

This is the worst product I have ever made the mistake of using. Hard to get on, harder to get off. This took off more paint than I would ever imagine. The only thing I can say good about it, it works on a heavily oxidized painted surface.
Other than that:

This is the worst product I have ever had the displeasure of using. In no part of my labored application of this product was I ever given a feeling of satisfaction or appreciation, and my car is now worse off for using it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

This product is the devil.
