Can anyone tell me, at what point is the GardX applied (if you choose as an option)? The reason I ask is that I'm considering telling the dealer to leave all the stickers and do the valet myself... I know what muppets dealerships can be, they're bound to **** something up so I'd rather do it myself.

 

The only issue is, I did ask for GardX so that might pose a problem to my plan. Unless of course, it is applied at the factory, I get the feeling this is applied once it gets to the dealer...

 

Thanks.

 

 

It's done at the dealer, by the muppets as you say. I never let a dealer unwrap my new cars, always send my detailer to them to do it before I pick up. On service I also tell them NOT to wash it for the same reason.

 

Seen so horrendous paintwork because of the dealer letting a 17 year old wash boy apply a professional paint protection product.

Hmm, maybe a cancellation of GardX I think. I could always get it done by someone who knows what they are doing.

Best bet. Little wrong with the product but to give you some perspective from an amateur detailer type, I spent almost 2 days (1 with a pal who is a pro) prepping mine.

Applying the actual sealant took maybe 3 hours out of that time.

Dealers won't / don't have that luxury so will usually peel off the stickers and slap the sealant straight on. Not ideal.

Thanks Andy.... That sounds bad. Maybe worth getting it done by a third party then...
