need some help here...

fellas...I need to find a chart online, or a list of what is included when you purchase a paint protection package from a new car dealership - you know, the auto armor, cilajet, xylon stuff...

I cant seem to find anything online. I will go into a dealership or two if necessary, but I would like to get something going tonight.

Thanks
Eric

mmm I think it proprietary to the dealship. (it's all a bunch of junk and they all charge insanely stupid prices for what you actually get anyways) Most people these days are smart enough to see this con coming from a mile away and steer clear. However there's still suckers out there that think this is some sort of deal they are getting for their extra grand or whatever added to the pricetag. Maybe you can search out the base products rather than a name.

Re: need some help here...

well i can help with xylon stuff, i used before at a dealership. there sealent is said to last for four years lol 8 months maybe. they have a mink oil for leather that comes with the package. great stuff. they have some fabric stuff like scotch gaurd never had to long to test. you get all this for $400 at the consumer cost. the dealer cost for product is 125.00 over all a waste of time

Don't bother looking into it. Just don't buy it. Extended warranties and "paint protection" packages are just gravy to dealerships.

EDIT: I think you won't find anything online because the products are just snake oil, and they probably don't want people to know what it is really all about.
