Not as bad as the dealer wants to extract another $300 from your pocket. I bet it is the F&I manager that making this sell. Anything offer as a good deal by this person usually isn't. I advise you take a pass.

No you don't need it. If you took it to a car wash and had a high quality wax applied, you would pay far less and get better protection.

Nope. Use a quality wax like Meguiar's or Nu Finish every spring & every fall and save yourself some money.

100% profit for the dealer and 0% additional protection for you. Wash, wax, repeat.
