TROD23 Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Has anyone had the Touch of Class performed on their car by Lexus? Is it worth the $995? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 No, don't do it. For one, most dealerships do abysmal detailing jobs, I don't let a dealership even wash my car. Second thats an absured price, totally absurd. All they do is apply some sort of bulk polymer sealant. With the info from this site you can do everything they do and do it better or you could pay a pro detailer about $120 to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest do they list what the package comprises? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to get started on Dealer's detail operations. Don't let them touch your car. Lou K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW03ES Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Thats totally untrue. No protectant can last 5 years, it'll be gone within 6 months at the longest. They've done independent lab tests on those industrial sealants and they actually don't last as long as sealants like Zaino and Klasse. The leather treatment has been shown to cause the leather to crack, and the same guarantee can be had with the purchase of a can of scotchguard. Don't do it, its just designed as a money sucker for the dealer. Most Lexus dealers in fact don't even sell a paint protection package because its such a waste of money for their customers.

bartkat Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Where's the best place to buy Collinite Wax #845 Insulator Wax? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Really the best place is online, or if you can find a marine store in your area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpwsrw Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 I agree the price is ridiculous. My dealership sells a similar setup. I have seen a shop bill for $700+ to replace the carpet in a LS 430 because we couldn't get a stain out. So the warranty side of it is pretty good. It just depends on the company and who is standing behind it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
