Sorry about that - no, no video - there were ads for polyglycoat sealant of various brands, from time to time on the telly. It's basically a synthetic wax which they claim will last like a ll-llo-ot longer than the best real wax you can get. NOT. It does protect better, but has to be renewed every six months just like wax, and they who use it - car dealerships, on new cars - treat the finish for a couple hundred dollars. I used it for some of the cars I detailed from time to time, and charged extra, but nowhere near the price dealers charge. I could purchase it for about twice the cost of caranuba based products. I still like Meguiar the best. Stanley

Is there a video that you are referring to?
