I am about to replace a shower door unit. When the installer came out
to measure, he recommended that we get the glass treated with
something called Diamon-Fusion. He said it would make the glass easier
to clean and last longer.

I did a little checking and came up with the links below. The ads
claim that treated glass never needs cleaning, is 10 times stronger,
won't get dings (mostly for car windshields), etc. I didn't see a
claim for getting rid of belly-button lint, but I may have missed
that.
Does anyone have any experience with this stuff? I never heard of it.
I don't know how much this will cost, but if it's this good, I would
think that the glass manufacturers would offer something like it
themselves.

Go to Pepboys or any other auto parts store and buy a package of
Aquapel. It's a glass treatment for windshields but it also works on
shower doors--bonds with the glass. Much better than Rain-X

Retail price is around $12, but you'll probably need two to treat a
full shower door.
Or, do an internet search for it. It really is great stuffOn Fri, 14

Do you use it? On your car windshield? On your shower door? How well
does it work? How long does it last (in each setting)?
The information I could find online suggested that on car windows, it
would last about 6 months on the windshield and a year everywhere
else. I couldn't find anything about durability on shower doors.
The other products, Diamon-Fusion and Tekon, both say not to use
anything other than water or special cleaning agents they sell. They
even recommend using special towels. Does Aquapel have any of these
restrictions?

The shower door installer was just here. They offer two products:
Diamon-Fusion, which is applied after market, and Tekon, which is
applied in the factory. For both of them, we cannot use any of the
usual glass cleaners including Windex. He also said we should use
special towels.
I checked the Diamon-Fusion website:
It claims to make car windshields 10x harder or more resistant to
dings. I asked him if uses Diamon-Fusion on his car. He said he does.
I then asked him if he goes through car washes. He said yes. I then
asked him how the product can tolerate car wash detergents, not to
mention wind, sun, highway grit, and windshield wipers, but not
Windex? He couldn't answer that questions. He then said that the
windshield produict is a different product and costs a lot more. But
he had already said that he uses the same product on his car.
I couldn't find anything on the website about not using Windex.
He also said that I can get Tekon on the new shower doors applied at
the factory. I check the Tekon website:
http://www.tekon.com/index.php
This is even more confusing and cluttered than the Diamon-Fusion
website. They are selling dozens of products.
I didn't get any answers that I felt were credible.
This looks to me like a complicated, somewhat unreliable, and not
inexpensive solution to a relatively minor problem.

Sounds like marketing bullshit to me.

But... they say:
"Save Money!"
Then they say:
"Kit includes Glass Luster, Tekon B and Repellent Wash. Necessary
accessories included." Only $26.95
But... they say:
"Reduce Maintenance by at least 50 percent!"
Then they say:
"TekonTM recommends adding Empowered Daily to your purchase for daily
hygienic cleanups in bathroom. Just spray and wipe with a Tek
Cloth." $10.95
Consumers have certainly done their part keeping "the economy" going
by buying obvious crap like this.

Hello,
I am a representative from Diamon-Fusion International. Sorry for the late response, we just learned of this site and the postings here so I hope it’s ok if I answer some of the what seems like are the most confusing points when comparing coatings.
-Diamon-Fusion® is a low-maintenance, not a no-maintenance coating for silica-based surfaces (glass, ceramic, porcelain, tile, granite, and quartz). Using most brand name window cleaners on the market to clean DFI treated glass is harmful because they are acidic and harsh. Diamon-Fusion® is easily cleaned with just mild soap and water, so harsh chemicals are never needed. Nothing lasts forever, so claims of “it never needs reapplication, top ups, revitalizers, or any mandated products to keep it working” need to be very carefully considered.
-Diamon-Fusion® is a patented product. In a sea of questionable claims about what products can do, a patent is the rock you can rely on to make sure the technology is real. Our patent number is 6,245,387 — check the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office website (www.uspto.gov) for more information.
-Diamon-Fusion® is typically professionally applied and therefore is not generally available to the public through retail outlets. We’ve been working really hard to change that though, so look for our do-it-yourself product in the near future at major home centers! In the meantime, however, we do offer a kit with the D-I-Y, non-patented coating that’s lower cost and you can get directly from us, or from authorized applicators in your area. Give us a call toll-free at 888-344-4DFI(334) to find one near you.
-Diamon-Fusion®‘s major benefit provided for homeowners is through its water repellency; it resists hard water stains, soap scum build up, mold, mildew, bacteria, mineral deposits and leaching, and the coating also helps resist scratches. Additionally, there’s an up to twenty percent increase in the brilliance of glass, helping to beautify those surfaces and therefore your home. Independent testing has also proven that Diamon-Fusion® helps make glass up to ten times harder to pit, chip, or crack. It’s completely optically clear and the coating is guaranteed to never haze, yellow, crack, or peel.
-Diamon-Fusion®‘s warranty is very clearly defined: If the basic maintenance instructions have been followed, and the contact angle of your treated architectural glass ever falls below 11-degrees, we’ll honor the warranty. No questions, guesses, or opinions… just clear, measurable, and defined. Our basic maintenance is simply this: Never use any harsh or abrasive chemicals or cleaning implements, and do an easy, just wipe-it-down, weekly cleaning which you’re likely doing anyway. Other warranties lack definition; how is “easy to clean” defined? Who is the final arbiter of whether the surfaces are truly “easy to clean”? If you disagree, how is it measured? Our answers are clear and simple.
-Diamon-Fusion® products are easily Revitalized. We support our product and give you tools you can use to make maintenance even easier by having additional products that are uncomplicated to use, inexpensive, and easy to obtain. If you ever do happen to seriously neglect your treated surfaces, they’ll help you bring them back to “like new” condition, should you need to.
Hopefully this response has helped give you more information about our product. We’d love to talk to you about these benefits and others, and invite you to visit our website (www.diamonfusion.com), or better yet—give us a call. Please contact us soon and let us do our best to share with you how to clean less and make your life easier!
Thanks to everyone for your input, and we hope to have you as a Diamon-Fusion® customer in the near future.

No - You will not need any special cleaning agents to care for your shower
glass treated with Diamon Fusion. All you really need is water and a squeegee
or any kind of towel to dry the glass. A couple of cleaning products that
will not damage the sealed surface includude Sprayway glass cleaner (ammonia
free) available from most stores for just $2.50/ can or a diluted vinegar/
water solution. No need to buy any expensive proprietary cleaners. Simply
avoid a few bad ingredients like ammonia, bleach and abrasive cleaners. And
yes, DF is worth it's weight in gold! We have seen it in action over the
years and know that without a doubt this is the*_ best_* product on the market
for shower glass.
That is not to say that other available products are not good because there
are some great ones out there. Hence you have Good / Better / Best options.
It all depends on which product your shower door / glass company offers and
how much time & effort you want to put into the process yourself. Each of
these products have a specific expected life span and depending on your
intentions with your home it may or may not be the right solution for your
situation. We have seen showers in near perfect condition where the homeowner
used RainX...now they had to re-apply it once every 3 weeks to keep it
protected. So do the math on an hour of your time and money spent on that
over the years and see what makes sense for your lifestyle. If you don't want
to spend the money on Diamon Fusion, then I would recommend getting a product
geared towards shower doors that will last a minimum of 3-5 years because that
is more realistic and manageable for most people. These can be professionally
applied but some are also available as a DYI products. The risk with DYI is
that you need to make sure you are applying the right amount of product for
your square feet of glass to cover it using the proper technique to get the
job done right. Remember - shower glass is different from a windshield. You
are not only battling water spots and mineral deposits, but we need to protect
for chemical/ soaps and body oils as well. This is why getting a specific
shower door product is the best bet no matter what you buy.
You wouldn't buy a new car and not carry full coverage insurance would you?
The most important thing is to seal your glass one way or another to protect
your investment - otherwise it can be ruined in a very short amount of time
depending on your water quality.
P.S. Everything DFI states below is true and not marketing bs. This company
stands behind their product, but it really isn't necessary because it will
last a lifetime with very little maintenance. Yes, it is expensive but this
nano- technology didn't create itself and besides - everything is expensive!

done properly. Since I am a distributor I can only tell you what I do. I
personally take care of any warranty issue that I have applied the treatment

every time I go out for a warranty issue it was from the lack of proper

longer to remove water spots compared to glass that was not treated. I would
stress that you contact the glass shop who sold you the treatment and give
them the opportunity to fix the problem.

in past 5 years, 3 with diamond fusion and its worth every penny (and not
expensive considering the custom made shower). My other shower door without
diamond fusion still has water stains that can not be removed. I would never
purchase an expensive shower door without it. Now if you are purchasing a
cheaper pre made shower door at a store, it likely wont last that long
anyways and might not be worth the money.

Joe, can you please advice me what the "proper cleaning" is? We squeegee
after every shower. Is that sufficient?

Looks like you don't even wipe it down. Nothing cleans itself
