Default Anyone used Griot's Garage products?

This place advertises as being 'for the perfectionist.' Has anyone used their products? They are a little pricey, and I hate to waste any money, but if their cleaning/polishing/waxing products are any good, I'll give them a shot. They can be found at griotsgarage.com

Good products but, as you say, very pricey. I have seen their products around friend's garages but to be honest I have never heard anyone go out of their way to recommend them. I have never bought their products because of the price...and I guess I'm just not a "perfectionist".

I'll probably get some of their paste wax, 33% carnuba! I'll post a review if I get some.

The rap on carnuba is that is melts at a low temp which allows dust and grime to embed itself into the finish. I guess you could clay it out but why do it when there are so many polymer-based products on the market today that are harder, last longer, and easier to apply. Just a thought...
