Diamondbrite Good or Bad
Has any one had any experience of these guys been handed a promotional cd by my local Scooby dealer who gives them the thumb up. Basically says Guaranteed 6 years of crystal clear protection for your car......In other words dont need to wax for 6 years.......Good or Bad

I put this stuff on my cars and its good. No way does it last 6 years, but it does last longer than Autoglym IMHO and gives some extra protection against bird droppings. Its dead easy to put on (easier than normal wax). I buy it off Ebay. Got enough for two cars at a cost of about £8. I think the dealers want £199 per car - or something crazy!!

I had it on my Focus RS when i bought it new, cost £250 back then, wish id not bothered, couldnt tell the difference and to be honest i get a better finish when i polish it myself, i think its just to give lazy people piece of mind that when they buy a new car from the dealers they will never have to wash or polish it.

Lasts 6 yrs if you apply every month apparently so to me that means it lasts a month! A decent car wax or sealent will beat that time hands down.

Personnaly I wouldn't bother.
I believe tests have proven that it doesn't last as long as they claim.
Also if the car hasn't been prepared properly beforehand, then the end result will be poor.
I'd recommend using a quality sealant and carnauba wax, these will give a better shine and much better protection. And if the car has been prepared properly beforehand i.e been detailed. Then future applications of wax (Every month) will be a breeze.
