PTFE (aka Teflon) cannot bond to your paint unless its baked on at close to 700 degrees. Its been debunked many times in terms of benefiting car wax. Here's a clip from an industry magazine:

"Dupont several years ago released a press statment about their trade mark product Teflon. In a nutshell, they said the Teflon added nothing to waxes or polishes as Teflon can and will only
bond to metal while heated to very high temps. Basically what they were doing was giving a disclaimer for all of the polished and waxes hitting the market making claim after claim about how
superior their product was just because it was supposed to contain Teflon. This came out about the time the debacle about PTFE resins and the Slick 50 product that also turned out to be a big farce."

The above quote is almost 15 years old. Its amazing that companies are still trying to scam consumers into believing that Teflon can be applied to paint via car wax.
