Ok guys! I've been reading many a post on paint protection. Does anyone have cilajet on their ZL1? If so, thoughts? I thin this may be the first thing I get after it arrives but want to hear from you. I believe it is expensive but well worth it. Very selected locations from what I have read.

You are purchasing a sealant/coating with a very expensive "warranty". That's it. I would be cautious about who does the install. Rarely are dealer detailers qualified to do a proper wash yet alone polish paint to a level that a good coating could be applied to. Many dealerships offer some form of paint/fabric protection. Rarely is it done by the dealership they typically farm it out.

I wouldn't let a dealership touch my car. I was pleased to do it myself the proper way.

If you want a proven coating with a warranty search for Opticoat pro. This is installed by professional detailers that are approved by optimum. They will typically clay and one step polish a new car prior to install. You can opticoat wheels trim glass and etc.
