Buick paint ?

Bargain hard and I'll bet you can get them down to $550. That'll hurt them as they will only make $540 in profit.

Are they a Rusty Jones dealer too?

Hehehehehe............that's what my impression was also !

My opinion also regarding the 'teflon'. Still curious about the clear plastic covering tho. Would it prevent the normal 'chips' etc encountered ? Never talked to anyone that has had it.

I've got a 2002 BUICK. ( cream )

They must've used great stuff when they painted it. The finish still looks "a foot deep" and, it washes up like it just came from the factory.

Personally, I think the solid colors hold up much better than the metallic finishes.

Some of the newer imports look like they used a spray can directly over the sheet metal.

BTW re dealer add-on coatings; They don't seem to hold up under the Arizona summer sun. I've seen more than a few cars with peeling clear-coat.

$600 profit for the dealer. Waste of time & money especially if YOU don't keep a car more than 5 - 6 years. My parents 91 Cadillac has never been waxed until this year and the finish still looked fantastic prior to waxing it.

Today's auto paints are very good, just keep it waxed.

Many dealers in the Chicago area are adding these wax & interior treatments and tape stripes to a car with an added $1000 to the price tag. Its called Car Artistry on the add on sticker on the rear window.

Good Luck

Get it. I have stock in that dealership.....

Because there's nothing to talk about. Don't waste your money.

There was a post in earlier this year on GM refusing to honor a warranty claim on paint following a dealer applied coating.

Get it *in writing* that the dealer agrees to repair any paint defect that GM refuses to honor.

Personal opinion -- GM's current clear coats are great by themselves.

$590 of profit and a $10 wax job. Run run Rudolph!
