How can a sealant possibly last more than five years?

Modern professional grade sealants have very little in common with waxes, which would only last a few months at best.

Modern coatings are closer to paint, being made of polymers and synthetic resins. Once dried and cured, they form an extremely durable shell over your paintwork, or any other substrate you wish to apply them to.

Unlike waxes which are soft and burn off in the sun, modern coatings degrade very slowly, and depending on the environmental conditions they are subject to, could last many years beyond the guarantee.
