They are in the gov't supply system, CAGE code 1VJ93. So what they say about the Aegis radar *might* be true. However, PTFE generally does NOT stay in solution so you are basically wiping a mixture of the PTFE and hoping it adheres to the paint surface.

if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

If there was a product that was cheap and eliminated the need to wax your car I would think more people would have heard about it.

YMMV

This is a type of sealant that has been around for many years.It is not a wax or polish. I used a product with a similar formula on a truck I bought in 1986. It works okay to protect the surface,but you should put it on new paint to work best. It will not prevent the paint from fading in the sun and I was not really impressed over the long term.
