Nope, waste of money. They cant spray it on the "vital" parts that are prone to rust in the "salt the roads" areas.

Oh yeah, I sprayed it before. Its a stinky, smelly pain in the butt. Just another pointless dealer add on like window etching.

Goto autoetch.com, they will provide a complete etching system for your vehicle including templates, solvent and detailed instructions. I etched my glass last week for $19.99 and twenty minutes of 'work'. I was impressed with the order process and product from auto etch.

Hey, I have that! (But it was the previous owner who paid for it)

You know what the dealer I bought the 4runner from wanted? They wanted $329 to "register my suv with the police" they said that way if it was stolen, it would be easier to find. What? Isn't my runner registered with the STATE, who employs the cops? I laughed so hard when I saw them try and sneak that one past me.

I might not have ever seen it, but my salesman warned me before I went to talk to the finance people.

'gay accent edging', you don't live in Montrose do you? I think you meant grey.

I keep a good liberal coating of mud under my car to serve as undercoating... Easy to reapply too!
