Simoniz?

Anyone here familiar with Siminoz System 5, my friend is buying a BMW 3 Series and the dealer wants to put this on it. He said you will never have to wax the car, I never heard of anything like that. Any feedback would be appreciated.

It is another gimmick. Their ad says it contains Teflon which is great. However Teflon must be applied using heat in excess of of 350 degrees F. I doubt very much that the dealer is going to put the product on your friends car and then place it in an oven at those tenpertures. It probably will melt much of the plastic on the 3 series.

There is nothing out there that will last forever and eliminate the need for waxing. Tell your fiend to save his money and buy a wax or sealant.
