Extra Clearcoats ?

Is anyone going to get extra clearcoats applied for looks or protection or is this even a good idea? Thanks!

can you actually get clearcoats added......and do you mean from the dealer?
Also do you know how much this would be?

Read up in the cosmetics forum on how to care for the paint without scratching it etc.

Save your cash for a repaint later if you still have it.

I am surprised the dealers haven't thought of this already and run a "Rusty Jones" type advertising package with it!!!!

MAYBE WE SHOULD ALL GET 5 CLEAR COATS PUT ON

No, there is no reason why you would need extra coats of clear on your car...


unless you like to waste money... then go for it.
