Any one had their car jewelultr, diamondbrite finished? I got mine done before i picked it up and have not regretted it since, always looks reasonable but a simple wash and it really gleams. However an after rinse is required with a "konserver" after washing then final hosing down. Sometiemes i cannot beleive the shine i get from a simple wash. However it was expensive to have applied but does give a 6 year guarantee on paintwork. Oh yea colour of fabia Burnt orange

IMO its not worth it and a rip off from the dealers. You can get the product on ebay for about £30. How can they justify 10X that!! Good wax and sealer works for me and I do the hose pipe thing too. My "konserver" is Meguiers NXT Car Wash. Its PH neutral and does not strip the wax

I never said but I got my fabia for only £2000 was on offer at cost plus 5% hence having jewel ultra applied at £200. I was very sceptical at first but well considering what I saved on the car quite pleased. However small scratches cannot be waxed out nor can swirl marks as the car should never be waxed.However I never need wax my car again (may have sold it before then anyway) and it is much easier to wash than my other car Renalt laguna non jewel ultra. Like I say always looks showroom finish after; washing perhaps that is the burnt orange colour tho. Anyone else had jewelultra applied?

Any pics? Would be interesting to see how it looks

You can buy the kits for £15 or so off eBAY, and apply the stuff yourself. Easy, and cheap.

I'd neve pay a dealer £X00 to do it.

hence having jewel ultra applied at £200

All part of lifes experiences.

I bet the dealer was chuffed.

Look on eBay next time wont you??

Thanks for your comments ChrisRs and to think i came on here for help not to be ridiculed.

I not ridiculing you at all. I am merely pointing out that IMO this protection coating is a rip off and can be bought much cheaper. Good luck with it but it will wear off after a while. What will you do then? Can it be topped up for more money? Ebay is a good place for it. PLEASE dont buy it from a dealer. I'm only trying to save you money!

I'm having trouble reading his posts?

The dealers charge so much because it's a time consuming job to apply.

The paintwork has to be 100% clean before it can be applied. I don't mean just a quick wash, it has to be prepped with paint cleaner & stripped of all wax. Then there is a primer & then the glaze.

I bought a kit off UK-MKIV's forum for £20. Took me a full day to apply to stuff. It did look amazing afterwards, but the shine does fade after 6 months or so.

I just clay bar & wax now-a-days.

Mine does really come up great after washing will try and get some pics sorted soon if I keep the car much longer that is, having **** loads of probs with it.

I had the Jewelutra applied to my superb I washed it on Tuesday with Diamondbrite then put the conserver on it, it brings it up looking in showroom condition everytime. In my opinion it is well worth having done.

I bought some new wheels about 6 weeks ago, hopefully i have attached some pics successfully.

Tjanks at last one posotive reply. I agree showroom everytime but the sunnier the better as always

thanks again.

Not saying that Diamondbrite doesn't come up with the goods as far shine is concerned.

Just doesn't last as long it says it does..........and yes, I did use the conserver after washing.

Mine been on 14 months now

Good.

Diamondbrite reccomend you wash and apply the conserver once a month, and it certainly last's that and more.

Pete

Doesn't last 6 years though.

Will I keep the car that long tho???

I didnt was gald to get rid so much for skoda

This is indeed the theory but I do question whether the dealers do indeed do this and follow the correct process?

By the sounds of it I think he didn't like the Skoda he had............:eek:

No wonder his experience was poor lol.

Terrible engine.
