EURO: paint protection package?

[Catcha]

Thanks for the insight... guess I'll tell them tomomorrow the decision about paint and leather protection. Forget about it

Its all good and well to get it, but just don't get it from a dealer, everything a dealer does they put a hefty mark up on it.......from tint to whatever.

For $300 (which is what I got mine for) and from talking to mates who have had it - I would go with the paint protection. If you look after it and still wax your car, it provides that little bit of extra barrier for your paint. And it looks good.

Otherwise, if you really really care about your paintwork, you'll have to wipe bird-crap off the same day it goes on. *sighs* It's amazing what that stuff can do to paint.

There is no way I would pay $900 for interior protection though. I'm the only one who sits in my car anyway!

Can you do paint protection on a car that is a few months old? Or for new car only?

What about this Glare Infinity Plus product? Has anyone used it on their car? This stuff was recommended by an ex car salesman who said dealer paint protection was just a scam.

Meh just buy Glare Infinity Plus for $150 and do it yourself. It lasts five years and is much cheaper than what the dealers charge.

Dont get sucked into expensive inflated dealer extras

I don't really like the finish-look of the Paint Protections, it seems a little bit duller than usual - although its not that much of a difference to be fair. I'm sure it works well though... Don't tell my friends but I recommended it to some of them lazy buggers (but I don't use it!), and their cars which are under-maintained, have kept the paintwork well for the last few years without a single polish. I have no doubt it works, just that you have to use their shampoo product which is fair enough. I think they got the MINGS Protection, one was a Holden the other was a Nissan.

I find the EURO Accord's paint to be really smooth and also the top coat seems to do the job well enough, that it doesn't have a lot of swirl marks. Mercedes is probably the only other vehicle brand on the market which seems to have paint which looks really good as well as the newer BMWs (after E36 for 3 series), and Mercs already have paint protection built in.

As my car is Silver I don't take as much care waxing it can't be stuffed. But I use imported PS21 Wax which is the best wax in the world tested, even much better than Zymol or Meguiars. I couldn't bring myself to Zaino Bros the car throughout as the first time around its a hard job, but if my car was darker I'll definitely Zaino it... this synthetic polish but non-abrasive stuff is crazily good. For now, PS21 does the job quickest and the result is amazing, also lasts a good period!
