My general rule is if it’s being touted on Facebook, And I can’t find anyone using it on the detailer forums,, it’s crap…

There are a few summit white owners on a facebook group that swear by this stuff. I agree if it'sall over facebook with no known "actual people" commenting on it it's rubbish.
I have messaged the owners and again they swear by it but im still skeptical, for me i need more reviews from actual people.

I use it and it seems to work well. It’s not a wonder product but the ease of use is great. It is expensive but you don’t have to use to much to get a good shine.

Obviously this is an old thread, but since it's been brought back up, I'll mention that I've used this product as well. Seems to work good on my satin black wheels and on the matte black plastic parts of the grill and whatnot.

Some folks like it, others don't.

If you haven't seen Scott H's you tube videos on his multi-way comparisons, they very telling on which products hold up and which do not on non-garaged black paint in TX sun/weather. Scott H's channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/shibbeler/videos

Topcoat F11 is in his 34-way test. Didn't do so well. I have not used F11 but based on everything I've seen 2nd hand I wouldn't waste my $ as there are literally dozens of alternatives that have shown better performance for less money. For budget coatings/spray sealants the Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax blue bottle seems to beat them all at $13, and it beats many non-budget products too.

I recall a "leak" of the F11 MSDS floating around the detailer circles a year or two ago. It is a glorified furniture polish IIRC with some amazing marketing. I'm asked about it all the time by customers who state they saw the ad on Facebook. I've removed it off of a few cars with a quick APC wash.

Stay clear of products that are overmarketed and overhyped. Chances are you'll be disappointed, unless you know next to nothing about the proper wash process and how to protect and maintain your vehicle (or ok with taking it to a professional).

Overpriced snake oil.

Agreed, this stuff is some seriously overpriced snake oil. I tried it out on one of my cars a few years ago. Didn’t hold up well at all.
