Opinion: Teflon Paint Protection EXT/INT
So...I am picking up a new 2011 IS350AWD this coming Monday (see this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-is350awd.html).
The dealer offers a teflon paint protection coat that they place on the EXT and INT of the car. It costs $600.
I have it on my current car, a 2008 IS250AWD. I will say, it has done a good job protecting me from damage. I have two rock chips that are easy to see.
Questions...
1. I have heard the paint is very soft on the Lexus and it chips easily. How easy? How soft?
Am I overthinking this or being too paranoid? I have nothing to gauge this by so I'm somewhat worried.
2. What would you do in my place?
I do have time to get this done, but no later than making the call tomorrow since the dealer is closed Friday and Saturday.
Thanks!
