The bottle is not all that impressive, nothing to proudly display on a shelf in my basement. I'm just asking as I am of dutch heritage and all generalizations apply. I also own a fair amount of stock in Shell oil co.
While there have been rare exceptions, over the many years I've been on this forum the consensus seems consistently to have been---go with the Porsche product. So that's what I've done. That said, I haven't tried other products, so I can't really compare. But apparently others have. (And most of them have said...go with the Porsche product ) It's not a process that has to be performed all that frequently.
