I am a very keen amateur detailer, but have had the pleasure of working foc with a proffessional guy who agreed to train me in return for my labour.
He specialised in high value cars for the main part, footballers etc, but also more regular cars such as ours.
This is the advice he would impart. He had never seen a well applied coating done by a car dealership, ever! They dont understand, have the time for , or the expertise to properly prepare a vehicle for coating.
The coatings offered by dealerships are very basic and are nothing more than cash cows.
The other thing to consider is that ,when you receive your brand new pride and joy, the paint will not be fully cured, this process will continue for up to 3 months (Audi) aftere you take delivery. So any expensive coating along with the required paint correction should not ideally be applied at the point of sale. Just a few thoughts.
