You can do a better job by waxing your car with a good grade of wax. As for the interior, you can get a good quality fabric/leather protectant, that works equally well. Check consumer reports, online. They provide good info about dealer added options. Vince. Replies to this message: steve_ (Dec 28, 2007 10:45 pm)

Replying to: vbbuilt (Dec 28, 2007 9:11 pm) New cars don't really need to be waxed nor do they need extra protection anyway. I've seen some owner's manuals that just say to wash the car now and then (some do recommend occasional waxing).

"Mop & Glow" is a big profit center for the dealer.
