I have been very skeptical of these devices since they hit the market.
I know two people who have had them and both vehicles were rusty within 4 years with common beach outings and freshwater washdowns after each trip.

I kind of wondered how people could take these sorts of things seriously, they belong with Peter Brock's polarizer gizmo he was flogging off some time ago.

I think peter brock was conned as well.

Brocky was quite protective of it as i recall....probably just an excuse to fight with GM.
Wish I had a Polarised VL SS under a sheet....reckon most were removed and binned.

The major brands such as ERPS are selling them. Dont think they will stop.

Things are worth a fortune now though!!!

Seriously though, as someone with some low level knowledge of corrosion science I have been parroting this for years. ERPS is a con, sorry, but you cant cheat physics I'm afraid.

BTW, if anyone has any old ERP devices that they no longer want, I would love to get hold of it and reverse engineer it.
