I agree 100% with ByeByeAmericanPie, as the 3m laminates are absolutely amazing, and can still be polished! (Recently encountered one two weeks ago on a beautiful E92 335i, blue)

Rofl...
In all seriousness though, buy a clearbra if you're getting a new car - I wished it would have been around in '89 when my car came out, my car wouldn't look like Pippi Longstocking...
Also, those sealants from the dealers are indeed a ripoff.
One example would be Xylon, which claims to be endored by Boeing. Still, even if it is "endorsed," that doesn't mean it's used. It was indeed used for testing, and only for the alluminum plating around the lips of the jet engines, that's all. Apperently it didn't fate too well either.
Also, they don't tell you that you must come back around twice a year or so for application. Nothing special, and they usually contain silicones as well.
Yuck. Stay away from it and go buy some Klasse, Zaino, or P21S 100% Carnauba.
