While I couldn't test it on my non running 914, I did use it on my escape. No silicon content, that's nice. You have to prep well, surface must be clean. You also don't want this stuff on paint or glass. I used blue painters tape in tight areas.

It works! No shiny slimy look either. Dries to a nice satin, and no worse than back to black to apply. Read the directions carefully, and it does work. I want to try it on my targa. I think the results would be really good.

As seen on tv..
Also sell a smaller bottle at Walmart, but mail order you get 3 oz instead of 1.5 oz.

It looks like it might have streaked a bit, or is that just the camera angle?

It was still drying. It actually ended up more of a matte/eggshell sheen after about 3 hours. Car sat outside yesterday in the 90 deg sun, any of the silicon/other product ive used would have started burning off.

No Silicon.

SURFACE PREP is super important. The one area i didn't degrease with citrus cleaner didn't come out that great. All the other areas look good so far.

I wouldn't recommend running right out and buying it yet, I have not washed the car since application. 2 weeks should tell the story.
