Yeah.... I've seen one dealership that hired someone 'special' for detailing their cars.

I know dealerships have a bad ramp, some deserve it...having said that it all comes down to money. I'm not trying to be mean, rude or disrespectful but I sometimes try to put my self at a dealerships position and business is business, so the last thing you want to worry about is spending a large amount of money having every vehicle detailed...but then again I ask my self why not? All that's required is to train the designated "detailers" and train them well and dealerships would be set. I mean it's really simply, wash with two bucket method, use good quality towels, wash mitts/sponges and use quality products...but then again everything comes at a price and as a business what keeps a business operating is the almighty $$

Any who just me rambling on but it's quite the vicious cycle isn't it
I hear you Carlos.... I hear you

What I'd like to do is find a good protectant that's really quick and easy to apply (like a spray) that's cost-effective (i.e. cheap, so the bosses will buy it), so I can convince the guy to put it on the new cars after he takes the plastic transportation film off with his solvents.

Well there are lots of good products and that are quite reasonable in price, for example you could use Duragloss or Collonite (sorry if I spelled it wrong)...mmm...what else is there..um...Chemical Guys (i'm not a big fan of Chemical Guys though but just throwing it out there).

But to be honest Duragloss is quite cheap and it offers great protection and as far as looks goes, there is nothing wrong with it's looks

Well just my opinion.
