reduces detection by as much as 13% ?
sounds very reliable :D
Hartman 12-27-2003, 09:06 PM That stuff really works.
MattStarr 12-27-2003, 11:47 PM Hartman... are serious? How WOULD it work... how can wax scramble a radar gun?
Flounder 12-28-2003, 01:17 AM 13% is easily defeated by the +/- of a confidence interval. I wouldn't put my belief in its effectiveness; caveat emptor.
dogfriend 12-28-2003, 01:38 AM It clearly states that the product is "100% Carnuba Wax". It also states that the product contains "Rad-X" which is "declassified technology proven to reduce police radar detection up to 13%"
I can draw two conclusions from this information:
1. Rad-X = Carnuba Wax (because it is 100% of the ingredients)
2. As the geniuses of Monty Python once pointed out years ago, the phrase "up to 13%" clearly includes zero percent since the range of effectiveness is from zero to 13 percent.
My faith in humanity is somewhat restored by one other observation: At least no one has bid on it yet. :p
Flounder 12-28-2003, 02:05 AM << As the geniuses of Monty Python once pointed out years ago, the phrase "up to 13%" clearly includes zero percent since the range of effectiveness is from zero to 13 percent. >>
Never even thought of that, dogfriend. But you hit the nail on the head. I should sell an elixir (water) that will guarantee people can get laid up to 13% more than they usually do; probably find some bidders, too...
RFR2212 12-28-2003, 07:06 PM Maybe it's me but besides i don't believe their claims, the 100% carnauba threw me... Ain't it so that the higher the carnauba content, the priceier the wax... Such as zymol waxes, which can get pretty expensive.

Stephen 12-28-2003, 08:02 PM Well any wax that says "100% Carbuaba" isn't really 100% Carnuaba. Pure carnuaba is hard as a brick. ALL waxes contain ingredients that soften the wax and make it able to be spread. They dont mean 100% of the contents are carnuaba, they just mean Carnuaba is the ONLY wax in the product.
That said, I'm sure this doesn't work lol.
GaSouthern1 12-28-2003, 09:21 PM Oh my god...and to think that someone will buy it.:rolleyes:
A Wise Guy 12-28-2003, 09:54 PM 4 days, 4 hours to go and not a single bid yet. What is wrong with you people. I know, you are all too embarassed so you just went ahead and bought it for $12.99 instead. But then again... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=50450&item=2450323198
MattStarr 12-28-2003, 11:23 PM Who got it!!
MattStarr 12-28-2003, 11:32 PM It said if the winning bid is 49 dollars or me its for 26 bottles of the stuff...
Read the last line of the auction.. I guess he is going to start wholesaling the stuff!;)
A Wise Guy 12-28-2003, 11:34 PM Somewhere in the ballpark of $4.00 a bottle and he can probably turn a profit. Time and stuff taken into consideration. Unfortunately for him it looks like he is only selling one bottle.
MattStarr 12-28-2003, 11:35 PM Read the last line of the auction.. maybe Im just reading into this wrong.....

Which part? 29 / 16 oz bottles or the claims by radiant labs?
A Wise Guy 12-28-2003, 11:51 PM A little more info. http://www.theautochannel.com/news/press/date/20000622/press018856.html

I'm always skeptical of press releases that have obvious spelling errors in simple words. :rolleyes:
Charlie's_93EB 12-29-2003, 02:17 PM an officer will aim his or her radar at or near your front and rear license plates or bumpers. it has to reflect back to the unit:) happy bidding
Rhett 12-29-2003, 06:45 PM If you put Reynolds Wrap around your truck, maybe that would reflect radar.
(anyone ever see that CHiP's episode??)
Blee1099 12-29-2003, 06:55 PM Right now the only bid is $9.99. I am very skeptical one this one, I couldn't find any 3rd person reviews of this stuff other than this one. http://www.autoworld.com.my/EMZine/Review/viewarticle.asp?awReviewID=366&awCatID=RT.ATC.CAR.FS
dogfriend 12-30-2003, 10:59 AM Don't bother with that wax - this is the stuff you need if you are really serious about absorbing radar signals Eccosorb FGM (http://www.eccosorb.com/catalog/eccosorb/FGM.asp)
Luckily, it is available in a convienent Pressure Sensitive Adhesive version, so you can stick it directly onto the outside of your truck.
If you have to ask about cost, then you probably can't afford it ;)

That's what J.R. Ewing said about his beer.
