Smartguard Gen 3 glasscoat
Discussion
I have been offered this (at cost to me) by the dealer supplying my new nearly new car (9 months old). I am well aware this is an add on to try and earn the dealership some money (they won't be making much from the sale).
But, I want the car protected and I would rather it be done before I pick it up.
What is the general consensus of this product? Is it a good product? Is it a good product that will be applied badly? Or should I just refuse it, polish and wax myself when time and weather allow?
The dealership are asking £399 for it, not had a chance to discuss a price reduction yet.

Dont do it!
Dealership coatings such as this are well documented as being poorly (if at all) applied & will die off in a matter of weeks
If you want your car protected, find a local detailer & have a proper ceramic coating applied, I dont think it’d be that much dearer than what the dealer is quoting

Do it yourself or pay a reputable detailer. Even if the detailer is more expensive atleast you will be likely to actually get what you are paying for.
