Perflex
By Bruce Clark

Perflex was "the answer to a dream" -- the greatest stuff since
sliced bread!  The early advertisements claimed it would last at least
70 years: "Wonderful air-tight replacement for leather!"

Then things started happening -- nothing worked!

The truth is, it was lucky to have a life-span of 70 months!  It did not
live up to the expectations.  It turned into a messy mass of bubble gum,
nearly impossible to remove, and it destroyed more dreams of a "permanent"
restoration than can be imagined.  It truly was a nightmare!

A lesson learned:  When you hear of a new product "too good to be true"...
it usually is false!    Do some research!
