Should You Get Car Dealer Paint Protection In San Diego

Should I Get A Car Dealer Paint Protection Detail?

Well, if you read online or listen to talented ‘detailers,’ the answer is a no. But what if the dealer has a relationship with gifted detailers? It is important to remember that paint protection and even car cleaning, in general, can do far more damage than good when done incorrectly. At Dr. Detail, we provide car pain protection services at affordable rates. Our experts also provide auto detailing services. 

Is Car Dealer Paint Protection Worth It?

Although often reasonably complex in its application and product selection, Paint protection is a simple service with very little complexity involved at all. 

With its gleaming paintwork, your nice new car can be protected through the use of 3rd party detailing products that seal the paintwork and prevent penetration, add an extra layer of protection between the paint and the elements and protect against the effects of UV rays in discoloring paint pigments. 

Generally, it is a thin coating of plastic or even ceramic that prevents tiny abrasives from leaving damage on the paintwork. The paint will usually be protected for a limited time, depending on the products used. 

Still, during that period, the car can be washed and waxed, often more accessible than an unprotected vehicle, and looks as good as new each time.

So what questions could be asked to gauge the level of service on offer and if it is to be avoided at all costs:

Do Car Dealers Do Their Detail?

The answer is likely to be ‘in-house’ by our trained professionals, so ask to see the accreditation’s of said professional and ask to meet them to discuss the service they will provide. This is not you being difficult, and it is simply to protect the investment you have just made, and we know vehicles depreciate enough as it is without damaged swirly paintwork.

If the answer is no, then that is most likely an excellent start to proceedings. Ask who the 3rd party is and get any details about them to check them out online first or even check them out on our Car Detailing Directory sections.

If the answer above was Yes, then the list of questions gets a little longer than just the one above.

What Paint Protection Products Do You Use?

Many professional car detailers are accredited with some of the best brands on the market.

If you are paying three figures for service on top of the purchase of a car, you most likely want to have the best product for the job being applied by the best person for the job, so always decline the offer of car dealer paint protection.
