| Review by Richard Youngman (USA) 2010-06-27 Cleans everything. Computer and TV screens, computer cases, printers. Desktops. A real dirt magnet.

| Review by ZeroCool (SI VALLEY, CA) 2010-07-22 This is going to a brief review. I tried clay bars after reading all the rave reviews on them.

| Review by Michael J. Paris (PHX) 2010-06-13 I found this product to be good. I tore through the bottle of instant detail that you are to use as lubricant. Might need a extra bottle to do a truck.
