Stop by the Corvette forum (C8 Section), and ask them that "Hit it with some pledge" question.
See if you give any of them a heart attack.

while pledge does contain some silicons, it really isn't designed for automotive use but yes it will not hurt the finish, just not long lasting, does not cure to a hard finish.

This was a joke, the pledge part. It will get corrected today and coated with Armour Detail Supply coating

I don’t own any pledge

Yeah, I knew that. Exactly why I said you should stop by the Corvette forum and ask that.
