Comments on: Is the paint protection that new car dealers offer on cars anything more than a good wax?

Most of it is just car wax but its the warranty that they sell with it thats important. You should wax your car at least 4 times a year. If you do that then you can save some money when purchasing the car

A BETTER QUALITY OF WAX APPLIED AND THEN BUFFED OUT.

NO MORE THAN THAT, IT IS A WAY TO MAKE EXTRA MONEY AND IT IS A RIP OFF.

hi,,, yes and yes… same or better wax are available in your local car parts store.. use the clear coat safe ones…
fabric protection is nothing else but a scotch guard. empty a can in your fabrics.

This (Paint Protection) is simply a fresh wax job that the charge a couple of hundred for it really doesn’t exist…don’t believe it? ask them to show it to you. Anything that could be added to the paint would have to be applied by a Painter and would probably void the Paint Mfg’s warranty.

I do believe in the protection offered by the dealer although it will only last for about 1 year which is not bad.The dealer will often throw this option in to help create a sale
