eight years, to as long as the customer owns the car.

Ray Brothers, the exclusive representatives in the Island for Ziebart TidyCar car protection system, have been gradually increasing the length of the warranty.

President Mr. William Ray said that the company's decision highlighted the confidence in the Ziebart product and that a "lifetime warranty'' was the next logical step.

To maintain the warranty, customers are required to have annual check-ups, including a complete inspection to ensure that the vehicle remains free from internal rust.

Mr. Ray said, "Internal rust is the most deceiving. When you realise that your vehicle has started to rust from the inside, it could be too late. At the least, an expensive repair job might be necessary.

"Ziebart TidyCar's protection system is expressly designed to prevent such rust.'' All new cars of whatever make that are protected by the Ziebart TidyCar anti-rust warranty, will automatically receive the lifetime offer.
