	I have heard from professional paint refinishers
that the Teflon paint coatings that are available are
extremely bad news.  They work fine for the first
year or two, but appearantly they don't totally stop
paint oxidation, they just retard it.  So when the
time comes that a nice buff job would normally do
wonders, you can forget it.  The Teflon coatings
are almost impossible to remove without destroying
the paint in the process.

	These same people bless a high quality
wax.  What I would like to know is a good, safe
way to apply it.  I've heard bad things about
using a soft rag and elbow grease.
