Paintwork Coatings - any good?

We have been looking at hangering our Arrow over the worst months of the winter. Unfortunately, due to lack of available hangerage at the airfield, we would have to move it quite a bit away, with the obvious problems that causes. However, a bit of clubhouse chat at the weekend led us to thinking of having the aircraft 'tefloned', which, it is claimed, protects well, and is considerably less than hangering fees.

A quick search on St.Google and UKGA brought up a few detailing companies offering 'nano' coatings.

Before I make a prat of myself asking the advertisers silly questions, I thought the collective of Pprune may be able to shed a bit of light on
a. whether nano is the same as teflon
b. is it worth doing
c. what's involved
d. anyone had it done and what did it cost?

Cheers!
