What makes Wolfgangs German Polymers "Super Polymers"

Marketing hype!

All joking aside, the term 'polymer' is totally misused in detailing (and similar) circles. Polymer is an extremely generic term and according to the strict chemical definitions, everything from shampoo through to paint is bunged full of them. They are not necessarily film formers and they are not necessarily going to provide any kind of protection. Many polymers will appear in cleaning products and there is zero intention for these to persist on the surface.

It is hard even to construct a chemical definition of what is meant when the term 'polymer' is used on a forum such as this. Often it is intended as a description for a persistent film former which supposedly protects (however it is frequently used in the other regard e.g. waterless washes). Within that it is impossible to accurately assign what specific chemistry one will refer to. There are numerous possibilities out there and even these are not always used accurately (e.g. acrylic).

What I am trying to say is that for one to define that they use super-polymers compared to others is just nonsense because there is very little chance they actually know what others are using. Yes, they may well be using polymers with UV absorbers or which have other characteristics but I am afraid that these are hardly unique to any one manufacturer. So again, marketing.
 
This whole topic of Polymers reminds me of the diminishing vs non-diminishing abrasives marketing strategies.

The fact of the matter is that ALL abrasives are diminished over their working time...so we should not get too tied up with the terminology...but rather how we like the results and ease of use.
 
Maybe some of my earlier questions about some of the available fine products like WGDGPS 3.0, and others like Menzerna Powerlock sounded like a Doubting Thomas, but I do believe these are exceptional products, and my questions about a need of adding products such as Polycharger to them perhaps has multi-faceted answers.

As for Polycharger adding longevity to such top flight products, the answers may never be able to be truly answered, there's just too many variables of conditions, of vehicles, of applications, etc etc to give any solid answers? (sorry if it appears I'm again answering my own questions)

I understand that Polycharger speeds curing time as one quality, and I can see how this would be advantageous to perhaps a professional detailer wanting to add additional coats quickly, or another product as a topper, or a person who sometimes fights the elements (such as myself at tmes) often immersed in a game-battle with the weather Gods here.

I often joke that I'd be richer than Warren Buffet, that I can just travel to any drought stricken area, pull up, whip out the can of wax and go to work, and virtually before sundown, they'll have rain, snow, etc! For sure, I'm better than any Shaman! LOL
 
I'm awaiting Bob's response from Rosh.

I read the first two lines and give up afterwards. I have deep respect for Bob, but I just can't keep up LOL.

I am focused on results and could care less about any chemistry or science behind how the product works/made. Color me ignorant, but I am an American consumer :)
