Not being exposed to sunlight, always parked in the garage and not used over the winter contributes to less damage. The 6 years warranty with the protection probably lasts a lot longer in reality then.

The same applies to the Swissol wax I used on the Golf, lasts about 18 months per treatment as the car is rarely outside exposed to the elements.
