Default Xzilon paint protection? Anyone use it before?

Hi all. When I purchased my xB, the dealer made a great case for having a paint protection product called Xzilon, and in fact, it seemed almost too good to be true. I did a search, and surprisingly this product hasn't really been discussed in detail anywhere in this forum. I was wondering if anyone has tried out Xzilon and what their opinions of it might be.

I was also wondering if this would cause problems with any decals that I was hoping to apply to the car.

Here's the demo from the company website:

Thanks guys!

google it. Several guys on some auto detailing forums say this ____ is bogus and you're better off to wax regularly, apply your own protectant, etc. My dealer had me sold on this ____, but after a search, I opted that they take the $ I had already spent and apply it to my spoiler, floor mats, obx shift ****, etc.

I think it's great. Make sure you get it when you buy a car from me.

the impression i get is that: If you are one who likes to hand wash and wax to care for you car's finish regularly, then xzilon is not for you. However, If you are one who likes to go all winter long without a wash or who maybe waxes once a year, then xzilon will do what you want it to. I am also under the impression that xzilon is NOT a one time application, you must get it done annually according to the sites I read. To make a long story short, 5 or 6 hundred bucks will buy a lot of Mother's or Meguiar's. You make your choice.
