Yep - my dealer had already applied "paint and fabric protection" when I bought my orphan. The paint has held up well for nine months and the fabric protection seems to be good. Was it worth the nearly $500 bucks? I don't think so . . . there are so many great items available today, Ultimate, Ice, Zaino, etc. that are so much less.
No way worth - $499. Was disappointed to see it applied to my loaded demo - but happy to purchase a without the wait. I keep my cars (usually a loaded Linc) for 12 to 14 years.
Never, . . . never do I ever put any soap of any nature on the paint finish. Never go through a car wash! I only use a bucket of water with a water-filled, soft sponge (used for washing horses, yep;) to wipe the dirt off. If the car was exceptionally dirty, or salty, a second bucket of water works along the bottom and wheels. And a thirsty towel wipes it all away.
Our cars always look like a new finish to the end of their long lives. We always kept two silicon (boat) wax coats on the paint - which lasted almost two years. Everyone comments on our painted finishes. BTW, a bucket of water is another green service to our Big Blue World.
