New car: when to have paint protection?

[prizefighterMD]

Hello! We'll be having a new car soon and I'm wondering when it's best to avail paint protection and what kind of service or product to avail. Should I wait for a few months? Should protection be applied ASAP? I would appreciate if you can recommend detailing shops also.

Thanks!

its all about the car preparation before applying any protection.

just dont hit another car or avoid getting deep scratches

imo, protection while its new is better than to wait for a few months. check out the fb pages of Technical Details and Optimum Impressions. you can also refer to similar thread

Learning how to properly wash, wax, and keep your can do better than paint protection.

An extra layer helps naman hehehe. Im using a sealant and the gloss is somewhat still there. I need to get another session in or go to a shop. 🤔

Also curious on what you avail for a bnew car. Got mine for 1+ week. Just wash+wax?

If you have the extra funds for it, go for ceramic or glass coating.

Personally, I’m a cheapskate so I opted for washing and waxing my car on a regular basis instead

Ceramic coating is a good sealant.

just invest a good micro fiber, wax, sealant, car shampoo, high pressure power washer, clay bar, vacuum cleaner.
May exercise kapa every weekend.

Normally, exposure to heat and rain (elements) will cause paint deterioration. In my experience, prolonged exposure to heat ang mas matindi. So, just find ways to keep your car under a shade most of the time. I cannot say if the expensive paint treatments nowadays will really protect your car's paint if regularly exposed to the sun. That's why I still opt for the conventional car waxes. Madami ng variants sa market. Before I would recommend a "cleaner wax" if the car's paint has loss its luster. For newer cars, meron naman yun "paint protection" types or just use car shampoo with carnauba wax.

my paints still looks good even though its over 250,000km old. some dents left and right and some on the hood because of the truck routes. im parked outside and the roof paint isnt deteriorated. maintenance is easy as long as the owner puts on a layer of protection.

It's all about how you wash, wax and dry your car. The more na maingat at maalaga ka, the longer you won't need to have paint protection
