Description:
Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.
The electric candle and faux fur, coffee substitutes and meat analogues, Obama impersonators, prosthetics. Imitation this, false that. Humans have been replacing and improving upon the real thing for millennia from wooden toes found on Egyptian mummies to the Luxor pyramid in Las Vegas. So why do people have such disdain for so-called "fakes"?
Kati Stevens's Fake discusses the strange history of imitations, as well as our ever-changing psychological and socioeconomic relationships with them. After all, fakes aren't going anywhere; they seem to be going everywhere.
Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

It really does the job!
Size: 8 Oz
This stuff actually works really well. It brought all my plastic back to life. And although I don't think it's designed to use on metal my toolbox is black and it looked faded and I did the toolbox with it and it looks brand new now. There's a die in this product that makes it last longer than most other products I believe. And if your plastics are really bad like some of mine were give it to treatments and you'll be amazed. You have to let it dry for a while it will be sticky depending on the climate for a day or so but it's pretty much dry it won't you know smudge or anything but it just feels sticky to the touch for a day or two. I've been through the car wash a few times since I treated it and it didn't hurt that new finished.
I do recommend this product.

Excellent results, easy to use, impressed!
Size: 8 Oz, Size: 8 Oz
I used the glide coat ceramic sponge applicators (it’s what I had) and the absorption was perfect. Application on trim pieces was super easy. Had to get a little particular around my mirrors and window trim (I didn’t tape, oops) I used 4-5 throwaway microfiber towels to wipe excess. Super pleased with 1st coat, may go back for seconds on my tonneau. I left each section to cure for about 7 minutes then wiped with towel. Leaves a nice matte finish that pulls out the sparkles in my Raptor trim. No sticky residue leftover.

Very good but over priced!
Size: 8 Oz, Size: 8 Oz
Great product and works very well. I was disappointed because of the high price and the small size bottle. But other than that it’s a very good product and makes my work van look clean, shiny clean. My van is white, but it was easy to clean it if I missed up. Good but over priced!

Super good
Size: 4 oz Kit, Size: 4 oz Kit
Super easy to use and seems to dry quickly. I think it’s a great value for the price. I can’t say how long the results last for but the process is easy enough and the results are good enough that I’d be down for doing it every couple months. It dries black and made my trim look brand new. Honestly the hardest part was just taping around the side mirrors. You should definitely get this if you’re on the fence about it.
