X-Pack Paint protection?

[Rsome]

RExman just a minute I'm just going outside to talk to the inch of tar build-up on my rear hatch and up the doors of my Golf R and inform it that they should be breaking down.

Hang on, before you go blaming the product, have you given it enough "oxygen, UV light and water" to work properly as a "permanent oxidising generator?

Seriously I tried this one with my new R and I have already gone through 2 bottles of bug and tar remover because the **** that is supplied would have difficulty dissolving dust let alone tar.

Your a funny man AngryMan,

LMAO!!

Apparently, cars now clean themselves!

NONE of you ****s know anything about XPack. For starters it doesnt come individually unless you are getting rorted some other **** for the same amount. There is no way a Xpack and top quality tint can be done for under $300. What other car care products do you know that offer a lifetime warranty on their products? How many pipes have you losers been smoking!!! Dont talk down things if you dont know ****!!

Hey if you cant talk , politely don't talk at all ,we dont need know All's here //

He is talking like that because no one knows what they are talking about!

As a dealer I am supposed to back the products we sell, X-Pack, Glaze Guard, Paint Protection, etc, but really, there is no substitute for a good auld polish & wax... Thats what Bees Wax is for....

+1 here as well, I use Autoglym on Tiguan, and for money you spend on it, it is hard to beat.

Can you explain to us then how it works, and how it is better than a wax for the paint and scotch guard for the interior for example.
Also if you can tell us your background so we can get an idea of your experience with all these products.
eg Are you a car dealer, ming mole, disgruntled car buyer who got sucked in by the ming mole or are you someone who has been detailing/painting cars your whole life? Just be good to know what your background is so we can evaluate your opinion for ourselves.

Agreed.

Wash weekly
Wax quarterly
Clean/Clay/Polish/Wax yearly

Do all those with the right products using the right technique and the paint will look like new for decades.

After seeing this thread and speaking to my bro (RX-8 nut) I decided not to bother with paint protection. I invest in good car polish...

I am guessing there are a couple of people on this thread who are "Aftercare Consultants" at dealerships?

(ming moles to you guys)

I run another similar enthusiasts based forum and I can tell you that when someone comes on preaching about something that everyone else tends have an another opinion about, its 100% of the time someone from that company or someone selling the product.

Something my dad always said "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't", I think there is a certain amount of hype in the Xpack literature.

I've seen a few nanolexed cars recently and they look good for a long while, thats the path I am taking.

Scotchguard...hmmm, there is better, but bang for buck I suppose it does the job.

If you actually read it PROPERLY you would see that it is a ONCE OFF application and you don’t need any inspections! And there is no chance you could find anything like it for $50! You guys are seriously idiots!

You're a ming mole? Well if you want us to listen to your spiel you need to spice up your post with some eye candy!

I think there may be redundancies at MING :-P

My friend had MING paint protection on her Honda, 1 (one) bird dropping left on for a week ate into the clearcoat. :-S
MING = Money Invested No Good.

There sales pich used to also tell you it adds value to you car when it's time to sell!! Anyone been told you your car is more saleable with it? Ming Moles are tele marketers in your face. It is nice though if they are pleasant to look at, I would let them finish their spiel then say no. Otherwise it's a very quick no.

[Transporter]

Yep, stick with the proved products and if you don't need it, don't buy it!

They even start on you at pre sale these days.
Friend was recently purchasing a new car from another manufacturer, and they were trying to plant the seed asking if the trade had MMP (ming mole products) applied.
Of course they don't care/don't know, all they were doing was planting that seed in your mind that MMP help at trade time so they could flog it on this purchase.
