I never order from those infomercials because of the risk of being screwed. I've just always heard bad things.

Urbanek said the agent told her she could get a 15% refund of her shipping costs — which she figured would be about $7.(she paid $8)
She deserved it....

I was actually smart and just didnt click continue/continue when they offered the vacuum/all the other bs.. Mine came out to like 30 bucks. Whether it works or not, with 250,000 units sold and only a hand full of complaints Ill be the judge of this...

The way I see it, if it was worth a damn it wouldn't need an infomercial.

Ginsu's had infomercials and they are a real good knife. My folk's set is about 14 years old or so and they are still real sharp.

lol saying something isn't worth a damn simply because it has an infomercial is quite ignorant.. Oxi clean had them and they are sold in stores everywhere.. the bow flex, just to name a couple.. I know theres tons more lol.

These little magical pens work like on the go clay bars. They work basically like clay bars and will get out surface blemishes such as a paint scuff that has been transferred onto your clear from a different car.

Even if it doesn't work it doesn't cost a lot but then again if thousands of people buy it and think the same as I do, I prob wouldn't waste my time to return it so they still make money off these informercials!

of course it doesn't work. the pen doesn't magically fill paint into the spot where paint is missing... it might act as a temporary clear coat for clear coat scratches though... :)

i bet its more of a lacquer based clear in a pen form it will work for a bit but will wash away but would prob work temp ha no pro uses it and i bet its not recommended repair procedure by anyone...wet sand and buff and polish is the only true way to get rid of a scratch...that wuss cant even scratch through paint with a nail ha

I got it in the mail a while ago, been waiting to use it.. I used it on a friends car just to see how it would do. I dont have any pics (too lazy) but it works. Now it isnt as dramatic as the commercial, like shit just magically turns new.. No. It does get rid of the noticeable scuffs, but if there is paint transfer it will still show. It leaves behind a glossy coating, and needs to be reapplied after wash. Im thinking it would serve well as a temporary coating... All in all, it was like 20 bucks or so and worth it.
