Default ZMax - Anyone with Experience?

I have watched the infomercials for years but have never pulled the trigger. To a layman, it seems like a good thing. Does anyone have any comments on this stuff?

From someone that has gone through a SBC after failure, and witnessed first hand the stringy mess of goo this product leaves behind after being heated, it will never be in my garage again.
