First off, why are you so defensive? You never mentioned you sold the product and the link I posted was one that I found through Google and not linked from the main part of your site.

Second of all, how do we know that this product takes up 1/1000 of your website??

Finally, it's great to make recommendation to people about things you like but the fact you keep confusing a wax and a polish kind of limits your credibility.

Maybe I will just give the MINI community my website if they haven't already found it through google and let decide.

As I said before, and I will say it again. This is not a product to replace your high priced, I mean high end car wax. It is a simple and affordable solution to keep your plastic looking good between the wax jobs.

I knew that original post sounded like an infomercial. It all makes sense, now.

Good work, OG.

I'm not defensive, you don't like my post about a product that some people might find useful, then move on.

Don't need to make remarks about how I post a helpful hint, and if I own stock, or if I am a dealer.

All of the posts here are typical internet guerilla marketing. If he just stated from the beginning that he sold the products and wanted to pass on the good experiences he had, instead of trying to pull a fast one--that could have made a difference.

Also IMO, anyone can and should experiment with alternative products, but before you go recommending them, do your research, and know what you're talking about, and get your facts straight!!

Never said I didn't like your post. If you read what I wrote, I said it's good that you've discovered a product that works well for you. However, you are confusing the purpose of a wax and a polish, which shows you don't know the difference. Also you hid the fact that you are a reseller of this product.

I like MINIs.

And I like pinball.

I used to wish there were a MINI pinball game. That way I could enjoy both MINIs and pinball simultaneously.

But, now I've learned that pinball machines need to be polished. I don't think I would enjoy polishing a pinball machine. I don't even enjoy polishing my MINI.

Plus, I would need more than one polish for the pinball machine. My apartment doesn't have room for the various polishes and waxes and other crap I've been convinced I need to take care of my MINI. Where would I keep my pinball machine polishes? I just don't think there would be enough room.

Especially because then my apartment would have not only a bunch of MINI-cleaning products, and pinball machine-cleaning products, it would have a pinball machine taking about a bunch of space, too!

So then I decided I didn't wish there were a MINI pinball machine after all.

The End.

I'm willing to try it out if you send me a free sample.

You mean on your MINI? If so, what did you use it on? Can you show pictures, please? Thanks.

I used Novus 1 on my Piano Black trim plastic and was very happy with the results. Cleans and Shines

I don't have any pictures because the trim wasn't really dirty enough to do a before and after. It just had a lot of smears and smudges from fingerprints.

I Heart my Garden Weasel.

Pretty sure I heard of this stuff before. Sounds like an interesting product line. I'm curious how well it prevents new smudges/smears on glossy interior surfaces, vs. something like Hydro.
