No experience with it, but it sounds like they are selling you an expensive wax like material. If you maintain your car, ie wash and wax regularly, i doubt you really need it. But i guess if you plan on driving 400 mph @ 400 degrees in a salt rain for 13 hours while spray painting your car then go for it.

I was never a fan of any of the dealer-applied paint protective packages. IMO, they're a rip off.

yea but what you guys think of the interior as well. There offering 5 years protection and if anything happens either to the leather or carpeting they replace it will a new one. Also they said they use the stuff on the leather and panels. Idk i also thought it was bs but i wanted to no if it actually worked or not. I mean its saying itl'l even prevent it from door dings?? like i said idk.

Go into the dealer ship with a hammer, screwdriver, a can of spray paint, a bottle of grape juice and a few stink bombs (available at local gag shop) and ask to test out a vehicle of theirs that they have applied the material to....and make sure you read the fine print about what is covered. The more you post the more it sounds like they are selling snake oil.

If I cant buy it and apply it myself..... I am skeptical... How much training does it take to be a "professional" to apply a coating to a new car..... the "professional" level of most dealership employees has not impressed me....
