In the past we were told that getting a Bodine finish was great for the car and it should be redone every 6 months. We have been satisfied with this on our Town and Country van, but would like to know what you think about this process, and if there are better alternatives.

Thanks so much for your help and information!

Completely missed this question. Is bodine one of those expensive dealer sealants that offer a lifetime warranty but also require frequent reapplication? If yes, I would avoid it. One yearly detail by hand with Zaino (wash, clay, ZAIO, Z2) is all you really need. The cost will be minimal and will require one afternoon of labour on your part.
