Anybody who has brought a car over the last 15 years or so from a dealership would have been sold paint protection such as scotch guard, diamond brite, guardx etc. ...
Normally from £250-£400.... and its meant to protect the bodywork, interior, glass etc... and tbh it does a good job to the average car... I sure those who detail cars hate the stuff and would slag off... rightfully so, much better products out there.. .
But here's the thing... I got a car yesterday from a friend who works at the dealership. ...she said don't bother paying for it... I will give you the kit for free... result I thought... worth a try ..
Truth is.. The kit cost them £30... and takes an hour to apply... how the f*ck do dealerships get away with charging so much for it..
It's all very simple... clean car, dry car, wipe on stage one, buff with stage 2 (no heavy polishing, all by hand), spray interior with an can... allow to dry for 20 mins...
Wipe glass with liquid that drys within a min... simples...
No hard work, decent shine, interior protected, paint left with a thick protection layer on top...
Happy days.. you can buy kits on ebay for £20-30....

Not a bad result for 1 hours minimal work. ..
